President Obama hosted Super Bowl champions, the New Orleans Saints, at the White House Monday.

"I make some tough decisions everyday, but I've never decided on an onside kick in the second half of the Super Bowl. That took some guts. This was an unbelievable season. After decades of frustration, the "Ain'ts" gave way to the "Who Dats," Obama said.

The President joked that he's still a Chicago Bears fan, but admitted the victory was a big win for the country. He said it helped lift "the hopes and dreams of a shattered city."

The Saints presented Obama with a number 44 Saints jersey.
