It’s well known the President Obama is a fan of his hometown Chicago sports teams. Obama had an interview with ESPN radio earlier on Friday, where the 44th President predicted that his Chicago Bulls would beat the Cleveland Cavaliers (in the playoff).
“I think the Bulls can beat the Cavs this year,” Mr. Obama said. “There’s something to be said for team chemistry.”
