In a post match victory interview, UFC Jacob Volkmann said he wants his next opponent to be President Obama (3:00 mark in the video). Volkmann explained he is struggling to open up his own chiropractor practice, and he does not agree with the Health Care Bill and wanted to knock some sense into the President.
MMA Fighting reporter Ariel Helwani joked with Volkmann about his comment, but it was no laughing matter when Secret Service agents showed up at the Minnesota high school Volkmann coaches wrestling at to investigate the threat.
Volkmann told the Pioneer Press, the Secret Service showed up with his picture and a transcript of the UFC interview. Agents wanted to know if Volkmann planned to go to Washington DC to hurt the President, but Volkmann told them, “No, I can’t even afford the plane ticket.”
The encounter lasted around three minutes. Lucky for Volkmann, he did not have to go through the full body scan.
Does President Obama have 
President Obama was injured in a pickup basketball game at Fort McNair in Washington DC and received 12 stitches. The President was elbowed by Rey Decerega, who works for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Obama received the stitches on his upper lip and was given a local anesthetic.
While Republicans took control of the House in yesterday’s midterm elections, there were winners and losers for five former professional athletes who also ran for office.
