Brickety Brackets [UPDATE]

Since following the Knicks has lately become an exercise in frustration as they copped an L vs. another below .500 team (increasing the ratio from bad losses to good wins this year), let's focus on March Madness. Clearly, it's the best month of the year as demonstrated below in my takedown of Major League. Let's skip the talk and get to the chalk.

Last night I had UNC-Asheville and UAB winning. Half right. Tonight I have VCU and UT-San Antonio.

Now onto the real First Round. I'll go down the line in each quadrant:

EAST
Ohio State, Villanova, West Virginia, Kentucky, Xavier, Syracuse, Washington, North Carolina

WEST
Duke, Tennessee, Memphis, Texas, Cincinnati, Connecticut, Penn State, San Diego State

SOUTHWEST
Kansas, UNLV, Richmond, Louisville, Georgetown, Purdue, Florida State, Notre Dame

SOUTHEAST
Pittsburgh, Butler, Kansas State, Wisconsin, St. John's, BYU, Michigan State, Florida

Second Round
EAST
Ohio State, Kentucky, Syracuse, North Carolina (chalk)

WEST
Duke, Texas, Connecticut, San Diego State (chalk)

SOUTHWEST
Kansas, Louisville, Purdue, Notre Dame (chalk)

SOUTHEAST
Pittsburgh, Kansas State, St. John's, Michigan State (upset alert!!!)

Sweet Sixteen
EAST
Ohio State, North Carolina

WEST
Duke, Connecticut

SOUTHWEST
Kansas, Purdue

SOUTHEAST
Kansas State, St. John's

Elite Eight
EAST
North Carolina

WEST
Duke

SOUTHWEST
Kansas

SOUTHEAST
St. John's

Final Four
Kansas over St. John's, Duke over North Carolina

Championship
Duke over Kansas

Hate it, but that team is filthy with Kyrie Irving back.

UPDATE:
President Obama, are you for real with the filling out your brackets on ESPN BS again? What about, I don't know, RUNNING THE COUNTRY! Even the crazy liberals in Hollywood are jumping off your bandwagon, it's probably time to do something you campaigned for. It's cute that the First Lady is on Iron Chef America, but you need to get it together. America's getting soft and gas is $3.60 a gallon in the Midwest. That's NOT a good look for me.

Furthermore, why is Obama the sports president? If I'm not mistaken, Gerald Ford played football at Michigan, and more recently George W. Bush played D1 baseball at Yale and owned an MLB team for several years. Obama plays pickup basketball, sweet...so do 50 million other people in the country. GET REAL.

  1. Dude, Let him have it. He would much rather be doing anything but his job. Maybe he can play golf with Michael Moore.
