Outrageous! I Totally Disagree With President Obama! Insane!
Edited on Tue Mar-17-09 06:03 PM by Median Democrat
The President's Final Four picks are out, and I am seriously questioning his judgment. The Memphis Tigers? They played in the weak-ass conference USA. No way they get pass Connecticut. Also, the Tar Heels? Yup, go out on a limb Mr. President.

;)

President Barack Obama is picking Louisville, North Carolina, Memphis and Pittsburgh for the Final Four in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.

The First Hoops Fan indulged in one of the week’s most popular pastimes, filling out his NCAA bracket Tuesday for ESPN. The network, which is posting Obama’s bracket online Wednesday and showing Andy Katz’s report on “Sportscenter” at noon EDT, will reveal the president’s pick for NCAA champion then.

The president stuck primarily with No. 1 seeds. The sole exception was Memphis, seeded No. 2 behind Connecticut in the West regional.

10. Funny Note - George S. Congratulated Mitch McConnell...
For Louisville. However, many Kentucky fans hate Louisville, so McConnell was like, yeah, uhh, thanks. If McConnell rooted for Louisville, thousands of UK fans would have branded him a traitor.

6. I'm a UConn fan and grad, but I wouldn't pick them to win the region
Of course, I almost never pick them to win.
