President Obama must like an underdog.
He's picking his own team -- the Chicago Bears. The Bears will host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in the NFC Championship game but the point spread on the game says they're 3.5 point underdogs. Obama even gives a score in his prediction:
Spokesman Robert Gibbs said the president will watch the game with family and staff members in the White House theater. Although Obama has not placed any bets on the game, Gibbs said the president predicts a 20-17 win for the Bears.
Obama previously said he would attend the Super Bowl if the Bears won. He's known to be a sports fans cheering for his Chicago teams the Bulls, White Sox and, of course, Bears.
