"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).

It seems President Reagan ended FDR's tradition of telephoning sports winners. Another good deed done by our favorite president. Wish Mr. Obama would follow other precedents of President Reagan besides not calling winners in the locker room.
