Detroit Free Press:

WASHINGTON — Two days after a heartbreaking, last-second loss to Michigan State, Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh got some face time with President Barack Obama at the White House today, with the commander-in-chief telling Harbaugh that he feels his pain.

"He was great. We talked about some mutual friends that we both know, and he said the same thing you just said: 'Tough way to lose a football game,'" said a relaxed Harbaugh after leaving the West Wing. "(He) told the fellas to keep their chin up. ... (He) likes the way our team plays and he told the guys to keep it going."

ESPN:

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- President Barack Obama has given his condolences to Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh following the Wolverines' stunning loss to Michigan State.

He says Barack Obama watched Saturday's 27-23 loss to the Spartans and told the coach it "was a tough way to lose a football game."

Looking forward to see if our next President of the US can top this Obama guy.

As long as he's mainly interested in Making America Great Again, I'll be happy.

I mean if Obama had the urge to offer condolences over a stupid football game, then perhaps he should have invited the punter to the WH and talked politics and did shots together.

Wait so you are telling me that President Obama is talking to a College Football Coach after they lost a game... instead of doing more important things? Hey Obama, Did you not see that North Korea wants to make a Treaty? Also Obama, ISIS still exists. Maybe you should stop looking a NCAAFB and go to more important things!
