1-2-3, WHITE HOUSE!!!

1-2-3, WHITE HOUSE!!! was a chant created by Charles Woodson after the Packers beat the Chicago Bears on Sunday to earn a spot in Super Bowl XXV.

I guess he came up with it as a response to President Obama picking the Chicago Bears over their hated rival in the NFC Championship game. In fact, prior to the chant, Woodson said:
President [Barack Obama] don't want to come watch us play in the Super Bowl? Guess what? Guess what? We'll go see him. White House on three.

Good stuff. However, I will say that it is not lost on me that the Packers opponent in the Super Bowl will be the Pittsburgh Steelers and their star OLB, James Harrison, who famously has declined two invitations to the White House explaining:

If you want to see the Pittsburgh Steelers, invite us when we don't win the Super Bowl.

Apparently, Mr. Harrison may not realize that the White House invitation is a reward for the Super Bowl champions, not a perk for the POTUS. (It does make one wonder what James Harrison got on the Wonderlic test?!?)

Anyway, it would be nice to see Charles Woodson, a Heisman Trophy winning star of the 1997 NCAA champion Michigan Wolverines, get a Super Bowl ring. Good luck, Charles!

1-2-3 White House!!! indeed.
