When Steny Hoyer brings up a resolution to support and recognize the University of Maryland men's basketball team - I'm not making this up - before we even had March madness, then you just know that it's just political favoritism.

I was homecoming queen. I was star of my basketball team.

I was captain of the volleyball team and the basketball team, and I ran track.

From a basketball standpoint, this team is going up. And I wanted to be a part of it.

I've always felt that, you know, the Almighty has a lot of things to do other than help my basketball team.

The state of Wisconsin is probably a little bit underrated in terms of its college basketball. The support we get is unbelievable. Then you look at Wisconsin and the success they've had, and you look at what Rob and Tod have done ? you're talking about two of the better young coaches in the country ? I definitely think it's underrated.
