Obama Lauds Florida State Gators


WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama has welcomed the Florida State Gators to the White House and congratulated them on a second national championship in football in three years.

Obama on Thursday welcomed the Gators to the East Room and says their excellence on and off the football field is worthy of praise. Obama says being a champion doesn't end when the clock runs out and noted that the team volunteers 400 hours each year.

Obama says it's strong leadership that the team played hard together and works in their communities.

Umm not only Is it the Univeristy of Florida Gators... But the Florida State Seminoles are their sworn and mortal enamy.
