[新聞] President Obama welcomes champion Duke
WASHINGTON -- This is what you get for ever picking North Carolina, Mr.
President.
President Barack Obama on Thursday heaped praise on the Duke men's basketball
team for winning the NCAA championship last month -- a Blue Devils squad that
capped its run in one of the more exciting title games in recent memory, a
61-59 contest against upstart Butler that came down to the final shot.
But standing in the Rose Garden on a sticky day, Obama was still taking heat
for (correctly) picking North Carolina, Duke's rival, to win it all in 2009.
Duke's coach, Mike Krzyzewski, bristled a bit at Obama at the time and said
the president should sticking to fixing the economy. The two have since made
up.
"It was nothing personal," Obama joked on Thursday with the coach and team
standing behind him. "Just trying to win some money."
A smiling Krzyzewski returned the favor by giving Obama a framed copy of this
year's winning bracket -- with Duke right in the center.
