A representative from whatever state typically does this for championship teams on all levels. This is a very typical gesture.

Dude, it's
Congress. You want them to be diligent and productive?
And really, is this kind of resolution worse than the president receiving championship teams at the White House (serious question)?

If this is approved, I expect to hear an outrageous response of the Duke haters saying that we STILL get all the calls.

You're wrong. There'll be an amendment on the floor awarding Daniel Ewing with a Congressional T.

I'm just surprised nobody introduced a measure to congratulate us last year when GQ named us "America's second-douchiest college" (second only because "we'd rather not rank Duke #1 at anything").

Can you spell "bipartisanship?" This may be the only resolution/bill/whatever that can pass Congress! And, by the way, the Charlotte Observer gave little...as in VERY little....coverage of the Duke championship as opposed to endless pictures and articles when the tarholes won in 2009. Now isn't THAT "special?!!!"
