Maybe the Nats could use him?

Did you know?
Bo's name came from two different places: Mrs. Obama's father's • nickname was "Diddley" and Malia and Sasha's cousins have a cat named Bo - and another cat named Diddley.
Bo was a gift to the Obama family from Senator Ted Kennedy and his wife, Vicki.
Even though Bo is a Portuguese water dog, he doesn't know how to swim.
