A Capitals Constitution for Barack Obama
Written by CK

We the people, of the Capitals Nation, demand that President Barack Obama follow through on attending a Washington Capitals hockey game after his comment to students of the New Economic School in Moscow, Russia. From the Sports Bog.

"As a resident of Washington, D.C., I continue to benefit from the contributions of Russians -- specifically, from Alexander Ovechkin. I'm very pleased to have him in Washington, D.C."

Mr. President, using a Washington-area superstar as a bargaining chip for the affection of Russian students? Blasphemy! He's never been to a game and, fortunately, NBC's Chuck Todd was there to call him out -- again.

"Todd: You mentioned Ovechkin in there, our friend in Washington. Do you think should you have been transparent and said you've never been to a hockey game? Are you going to fix this?

Obama: The truth of the matter is that I have watched this guy play, and he's outstanding. But you know, Chuck, I grew up in Hawaii....

Todd: Don't tell those Blackhawk fans that. You became a Bulls fan!

Obama: We have basketball [in Hawaii]. We didn't have hockey. I love watching hockey."

Mr. President, with all due respect, you are officially the lead trumpet in the bandwagon. Yes I know, I'm being a bit harsh, but globe-trotting around the world, name-dropping Ovie and thinking it makes you a fan is just as bad as every "Lakers" fan that has appeared in the past month.

So that's why we here at Capitals Kremlin have drafted a "Constitution" of sorts for you to follow and get on our good side.

Amendment 1: Mr. Obama must attend a Capitals and Pens game and properly show affection for his new home city.

Amendment 2: Red shall be rocked by all, including Bo the dog.

Amendment 3: Mr. Obama will re-film the "Unleash The Fury" video, replacing Tom Green's final scream with his own.

Amendment 4: At least one appearance on the dance cam -- kiss cam if the first lady is present, and it can't be some wimpy peck on the cheek.

Amendment 5: Mr. Obama will give Alex Ovechkin the "Key to the Country" in honor of his second MVP reign.

Amendment 6: Instead of the Chipotle burrito toss during commercial breaks, Mr. Obama will lead the Red Rockers in a stimulus package toss. GM cars will be given away throughout the game as well.

Amendment 7: Michelle Obama must join the Red Rockers for a night.

Amendment 8: Mr. Obama will participate in a ceremonial drop of the puck. Take that Nationals.

Personally, I think it would be cool if Mr. Obama ordered the U.S. Army Herald Trumpets to toot out "Let's Go Caps" -- with Horn Guy as featured artist, of course. Can we toss that in there?

well he obviously had to do something since he's not that popular there... maybe if he forced NHL to let the players play in Sochi...

I think if he is going to go to a Caps game, instead of "rocking the red" he should wear a Josef Boumedienne throwback.
