What do you think Obama pick for NCAA Championship
Edited on Wed Mar-16-11 08:09 PM by nmbluesky
KANSAS JAYHAWKS? He pick Kansas but People of Kansas didn't vote Obama..

For the second year in a row, President Barack Obama has chosen Kansas as his choice to win the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.

Obama revealed his bracket, which included a Final Four of Kansas, Ohio State, Duke and Pittsburgh, on ESPN's SportsCenter program. Obama has Kansas taking out Ohio State in the national championship.

"Kansas has more firepower," Obama told Katz on ESPN.

This is the third year Obama has chosen an NCAA Tournament bracket with ESPN. He correctly chose North Carolina as the winner in 2009, but was incorrect in his choice of Kansas last year.

5. Kansas, not Kasnsas

You better watch yourself. We Jayhawks are pretty proud of our team, even if there are a bunch of dumbass Republicans here in Brownbackistan.

7. oops!!!
Thanks for spell...

of course you are from Kansas. I'm Lobos fan, I know Lobos aren't in NCAA, they didn't pick them.. I'm pissed off. so The Lobos play in NIT anyway.. but I'm rooting for Norte Dame, because my family are superfan of Notre Dame. (of course Football)
then
Good Luck Kansas Jayhawks..

6. Had he picked Ohio State, I would've voted Republican! (Not really! ;-) )
Really, though, I agree with him on Kansas winning it all. And Kansas going for McCain has nothing to do with how good their teams are ;-)

9. Perhaps he thinks they're the best team and it has
Nothing, nada, zilch, zero to do with electoral politics.
I doubt if people of ANY state will vote for an incumbent president or a challenger because he believed that their team would win the NCAA championship.
