Boy...Barack really is going out on a limb with his pick for the NBA Finals.  First it was the Tar Heels to win the NCAA Tourney and now he is on record predicting that the Lakers and Cavs will meet in the finals.  I'm sure he also picked the 37-0 Connecticut Huskies to prevail in his NCAA women's bracket.  Don't get me wrong, I like the fact that the President of the United States is such a big sports fan.  I just wish he would grow a pair and make a bold prediction or pick an underdog once in a while.  

For example, weeks ago this fearless blogger told you that the Charlotte Bobcats would wrap up the 8th seed in the East and provide a formidable challenge to the #1 seed in the first round of the playoffs.  Don't look now, but the Bobcats are now one game out with eight games to go in the season...
