"Does (golfer) Phil Mickelson need a pat on the back," he said, adding that he once had to congratulate the Los Angeles Lakers on its championship run last season. "Does Kobe Bryant know where D.C. is?"

Chaffetz estimated that the House passes about three to four sports resolutions per week and it's rare for lawmakers to ever vote against them.
