It's not been a good week for Obama White House press secretary Robert Gibbs, sportswise.


First, he had to endure a celebratory visit to the White House with the big boss by the national collegiate football champion University of Alabama Crimson Tide. Honoring his allegiance to Clemson's Tigers, Gibbs boycotted that event, as The Ticket reported here.

Today, as an apparent sign of shame, a good-natured Gibbs was forced to don a Canadian hockey jersey because on their second try in the recent Olympics, the Canadian pro players beat the United States' pro players.
