I found this cool database, it shows the athletes who have made donations to the candidates campaigns, and the amount they've donated.

It says McCain has received more campaign contributions from the sports world than Obama, but that's normal...

* NFL teams have contributed the most to McCain
* NBA teams have contributed the most to Obama

Doesn't really mean to much, but it's interesting since this is a sports site...

If anyone can find out who Pac-Man endorses, please let me know.

I, of course, am refering to the Dallas Cowboy, not the anthropomorphic piece of cheese that caused the genocide of the ghost population including Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde. Although I would like to know his political affiliation.
