Tar Heels to make White House appearance Mon.

The University of North Carolina’s national champion basketball team will make an appearance tomorrow at the White House.

The team, which bested Michigan state in the late March title game, will meet the president tomorrow afternoon.

President Obama may be especially glad to have the Tar Heels instead of the Spartans; he picked UNC on national television to win the championship when filling out his brackets.

The meeting is sure to be especially painful for the president’s “body man,” Reggie Love; he graduated from Duke, where he played on their basketball team, North Carolina’s principal rival.
