Ive brought you this story before. President Barack Obama seems to have the kiss of death for those he supports, including college basketball teams. Well, that curse seems to be alive and well in this years NCAA March Madness.
Saturday night, the final two teams Obama had in his ESPN Final Four bracket lost in stunning upsets. Number one seed Kentucky was downed by West Virginia 73 66, and Kansas State was eliminated by the Cinderella of the tourney, Butler, as the little school that could knocked off the Wildcats 63 56. Losses by Kentucky and K-State mean that all four of Obamas picks for the Final Four have now lost. Kansas and Villanova, his other two picks, were eliminated in the second round.
According to ESPN, this puts Obamas bracket at number 1,154,792 on the overall leader-board.
At this rate, dont look for President Obama to be throwing out any first pitches come baseball season. Teams wont want his bad mojo in their ballpark, and really, who can blame them?
After his girly display at the '09 All-Star game, I doubt we'll be seeing him embarrass himself in public (in a sports context, at least) ever again. But then again, as deluded as he is, one never knows.
“Teams wont want his bad mojo in their ballpark”
We don’t want his bad mojo in our country.
Who was it that said, . . . “Loser’s pick losers!!”
The bastard better NOT root for MSU!
“We dont want his bad mojo in our country”.
We dont want his bad MOFO in our country.
Yeah, a lot of hype over the Messiah’s picks but only the WSJ in their op ed pointed out that he’s as good at making picks as he is in running the country - a**hole!
Stay away from the troops!!!!!
I feel so pathetic because I actually cheered for his picks to lose.
His and the overwhelming majority of everyone else in the country. All this shows is that Obama's no better at picking winners than I am.
