Repeat NBA Champs and Full Two Term Presidents
Jul 29, 2007 | 7:51PM | report this

Uh....I don't want to go all the way back to Teddy Roosevelt, mostly because my brain doesn't do too well way back then, but also in the spirit of the NBA, the sport and league are much more modern consructs.

Who have the repeat offenders been since 1930?

Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Minneapolis/LA Lakers

Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Boston Celtics.

Ronald Reagan.

Philadelphia 76ers (Not really repeaters, but the others are not that impressive either: Pistons, Rockets, Knicks...)

Bill Clinton

Chicago Bulls.

George W. Bush

San Antonio Spurs.

Eisenhower was in office only 8 years, and the Celtics have 16 total titles, most which occurred since his tenure...

Similar to the Lakers and Roosevelt.

But you see what I mean, maybe...

It's not a perfect model, but it kind of makes sense, no?

ABOUT ME


edclinch
I have lived in a few different sports areas and I am faithful to these places and their passions, give or take. I was born and raised in Bloomington, Indiana (1970-1989). Bob Knight was a central figure. I then lived in Chile for two years, where soccer became more of a presence on my global map. After returning to the Hoosier state one year, 1992, I became more aware of college football for a five year stint in Provo, Utah (1993-1997). BYU Cougar football! I made another return to Indiana from 1997 to 1999, and then spent the last six years in southern California, minus the last six months of 2005, in southern Chile again. And I got back yesterday, UPDATE:Now in Loudoun Cty, Northern VA! I am in the South! I love sports enough to think that they matter...Some
how.
