I don’t think presidents calling sports winners is a big tradition. The traditional deal now is inviting the winners of the big sports leagues, NFL, NBA and MLB, to the White House and Obama does do that.

Presidents have called the Clubhouses of the winners as long as I can remember!!

"I don’t think presidents calling sports winners is a big tradition."

The FDR Library would disagree with you...

"Two presidential traditions dominate each baseball season: the presentation by Major League Baseball of a gold pass admitting the president to any game in any park and the post-World Series telephone call by the president to the new champion." (see page 22).
