A Google search provides a few clues. It looks like McCain held some sort of college basketball bracket challenge. McCain predicted that all four number one seeds would reach the Final Four. And sure enough, all four number one seeds reached the Final Four for the first time in history. Maybe McCain does know a thing or two about basketball.

Additionally, McCain has been seen at a Phoenix Suns game. He looks pretty enthralled in that picture, actually.

Sarah Palin playing on her high school basketball team.

As you probably know, John McCain named Sarah Palin as his running mate. While it is well known that Palin is the Governor of Alaska, what isn’t as well known is that Palin is an accomplished basketball player.

Palin played in her high school championship game in 1982 in Alaska. In the final seconds of the game, Palin hit game-winning free throws to give her team the championship. What made it even more amazing is the fact that she was suffering from a stress fracture in her ankle during that game.

During Palin’s time as a basketball player, she was given the nickname Sarah Barracuda. The nickname was in reference to her relentless play and her intensity.

Add in the fact that Barack Obama is also a basketball player as evident by this Obama basketball video and we can expect to hear many basketball analogies during the next few months. Basketball fans now have basketball players on both ballots. In that way, this Presidential election can be viewed as win-win for basketball fans in the United States.
