OTish: President Obama has Michigan in Elite 8
No, you are not reading a time capsule post from the past. The former president and warm up pants aficionado, has Michigan making it to the elite 8 and exiting the tournament to Kansas

This thread can go a couple ways but I am not seeing a bright future
I know right? What a total moron. There's no way Michigan is gonna lose before the finals.
Obama used his microwave oven and tapped into some knowledgable sources (Hollis not among them).
Humor is still allowed?
No, really.
Although I'd still be happy with an Elite Eight.
And look who our opponent would be again in the Elite Eight lol.
I'm down.
Oh right. I always forget about Florida, the team that was stacked with seniors who were supposed to be able to topple the Fresh Five.
Then Michigan goes out and destroys them in the Elite Eight.
But what team are Biden's finger guns pointing at?
I want Biden’s NIT bracket
Obama almost always picks chalk and rarely picked exciting upsets...which is half the fun of doing the brackets.
Yeah he has all the 1 seeds making it to the Final Four... when was the last time that happened? Been almost a decade.
It was 2008 - I was thinking the same thing you were and decided to look it up. #1 seeds that year were UNC, Memphis, Kansas and UCLA.
2011 was the crazy year that obliterated so many brackets, of course - 3,4,8 and 11 (UConn, Kentucky, Butler and VCU). That was similat to 2006, when George Mason made that nice run as an #11.
Does that mean it can't happen?
/I'll see myself out.
I don't know. that's pretty tame. It would be like suggesting that maybe mitch mcconnell picked Maryland

Oh sure, shame the obese.
Username checks out!
you guys are such fucking pussies
yes ban me. obama had the best interest in the USA as president... gave billions to iran and let the people in flint drink lead filled water. open your eyes you moron.
No one's picking a fight over politics here. It's just a god damn bracket discussion.
President Obama had only one true upset pick in the 1st round: Bucknell over West Virginia. West Virginia also has one of the lowest approval ratings for Obama. Coincidence? I hope not as that would be some solid shade.
this is how I'll get back at states that vote against me!
Thanks Obama
Love President Obama and like his picks. Hope he is correct!
was they were attempting to get Putin's input.
God dammit, him picking us is pretty much a kiss of death :(

I BELIEVE IN YOU OBAMA, PLEASE BREAK YOUR CURSE.
Uh do you not see WD's post above about when he picked us to the Elite Eight we went to the NC game?
Just because a famous person picks your team doesn't mean it's a "kiss of death"...it means they were wrong about your team winning a game.

Did you actually read the article I linked? Clearly not. That's great that he picked us to go far one year. That doesn't change the fact that he's been terrible overall. Not sure why you're negging, unless you think I actually believe his pick will change how we do or you think I was making some kind of political statement, both of which deserve an "lmao." I'm sorry you took my joking comment too seriously?
Negging? Are you really crying about negging?
I didn't neg you. Here...that post is currently +1 and -1...I'll upvote you right now and you'll still have that -1. But hopefully you'll feel better?
