Video: President Obama Welcomes Super Bowl Champ Steelers to White House
By Larry Brown May 22, 2009 - Posted in Football

With the Steelers making their appearance in D.C. to be honored for winning the Super Bowl, James Harrison was missing. President Obama I’m sure was told about his comments but did not address it. Instead, he limited the talk to those in attendance. If you check out the video, you’ll notice that the Steelers all wore white polo shirts with team logos on them because they got down-and-dirty putting together care packages to send to our troops. Obama also admitted that he was rooting for the Steelers. Even though he’s the President, he does come across as just a “regular guy.” Check it out:

It’s nice that Obama actually knows sports so he doesn’t make a fool of himself like that guy from Florida International who called Isiah Thomas Isiah Thompson. And of course, there was a strong presence of Steelers fans in attendance. They are freaking everywhere.
