President Obama likes chalk for NCAAs (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/tournament/2011/news/story?id=6222176)

WASHINGTON -- March Madness is back at the White House, and President Barack Obama is picking the top seeds to advance to the Final Four.

For the third straight year, Obama has filled out an NCAA tournament bracket for ESPN.com senior college basketball writer Andy Katz. He says Duke, Kansas, Ohio State and Pittsburgh will make the men's Final Four.

Obama predicts Baylor, UConn, Stanford and Tennessee will advance in the women's tournament.

The president's men's bracket, including his choice for national champion, will be revealed on the noon (ET) "SportsCenter" on Wednesday. His selections for the women's bracket will be unveiled Friday on the 9 a.m. (ET) "SportsCenter."

The basketball-player-in-chief is 1-1 when it comes to college basketball's men's national championship.

He correctly picked North Carolina to win in 2009. Last year, he went with Kansas, but Duke ended up taking home the trophy.

Way to go out on a limb, Mr. President.  :whatever: :loser:

And making those picks has tired him out so much, he's going to BRAZIL this weekend.

Yeah, I don't remember ESPN or any sports outlet making such a show out of President Bush's brackets.

We need to give Obama a break.  I just learned that he has had a hectic month.
