Former President of the United States of America Barack Obama
has expressed his desire to go into sports and the 56-year-old will love to
play for San Antonio Spurs. San Antonio Spurs is an American professional
basketball team based in San Antonio, Texas, and they compete in the National
Basketball Association as a member of the League's Western Conference Southwest
Division. The 44th President of the United States of America declared his
interest for basketball while attending the MIT Sports Analytics Conference where he explained that
Spurs is a team he would take a free-agent meeting with because they encompass
everything he is looking for. "They're smart, they're well-run, and
they’re focused as a team. “Spurs treat everybody in the organization with
respect, and that is the kind of organization that I want to be a part of. So I would say over the
last 15 years in basketball, San Antonio would be a great example of
that." Obama was quoted to have said via Sarah Martinez of the San Antonio
Current. San Antonio Spurs have been one of the model franchises in sports for two
decades as they have won at least 50 games in each of the past 18 seasons which
is the longest streak in NBA history, and have captured five NBA titles since
the 1998-99 season.
PSG superstar Neymar
urges fans to remain optimistic despite his injury
Injured Paris Saint Germain superstar, Neymar, has urged his
fans to remain optimistic even in the face of challenging situations. The
26-year-old has been ruled out for about eight weeks after suffering an ankle
injury in his side’s 3-0 victory over Marseille in last weekend’s French Ligue
1 chash at the Parc Des Pricess. And the current world’s most expensive player
will miss PSG’s crucial Champions League round of 16 second leg encounter
against Real Madrid next week.
The Parisians suffered a 3-1 defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu
in the reverse fixture on Valentine’s eve in Spain, but will be hoping they can
overturn the result to progress to the quarterfinals of this year’s edition of
the championship. But with the unavailability of the Brazil sensation, coach
Unai Emery will have to make do with the remaining players who are fit for the
clash. Neymar told his fans never to give up whenever they are down, but
advised that they must find a way out of every situation that poses threat to
their happiness.
"Obstacles should not stop you. If you find a wall, do
not give up. Find out how to climb it."
He will be expected to return to action for the Ligue 1
leaders in April after undergoing surgery, according to reports in the media.
