Romney beats Obama at brackets.  Obama is the one that claims some interest in this stuff, Romney not so.  But Romney managed at 99.98th percentile result.

People who don't know anything about basketball tend to be stupidly lucky with their brackets.

Well, he picked three #1 seeds and Michigan State, who he is probably a fan of being from Michigan. Good for him. The Wisconsin upset is impressive.

I had the three number 1 seeds and Louisville. But Kentucky-Duke as my finale.

Congrats, Romney. Perhaps instead of politics, he should work in sports.

To be fair, my company did a fairly large scale brackets for world cup a few months back for employees and our customers.  I know almost nothing about soccer but I took the medium path of all entries and I think I came out to around 90 percentile.  Guess crowd sourcing works.

The guy that took a perfect bracket into like the sweet sixteen claimed to know nothing about basketball.

Just like UMass and Memphis, John Callipari cannot win the big one, and failed as his stink as NBA coach.  Good guy, but he needs to do some soul searching now.

I have thought he would have done better with the women's tournament. I guess those binders full of women weren't useful after all.

He's pretty wrong about politics, but maybe he can get a job in sports analysis to end his 10 year unemployment.

In a position previously held by Joseph Goebbels, no less.
