President Obama might have picked Kansas to win, but wait until you hear who Domenico (and some other people in the political unit) picked!

Who did the Libyan rebel leader pick?
Given this is MSNBC, I bet your picks come from the LEFT side of the brackets....
I hear Hillary is less than happy with the support she has gotten from a certain someone who went with all the first seeds.
Think we'll be treated to an article on that here on FR?
Oddly, I picked from the RIGHT side of my bracket. PS. Kansas is about as RED as it gets; but I think they are going to win it all.
I don't let my politics cloud my picks, do you?
Enjoy the tourney Dom. Good luck with your picks!
Who cares about 'hoops' when Mark Murray is on spring break? lol
That's the real story here Dom...
Did Obama Pick Louisville?
What a great Boiler Room, Domenico---thanks for supporting my Panthers. We'll take a bye to the Final Four after our bad experiences in recent years!
With Mark on vacation, do you think you could arrange for a mishap on the office wall and lose the Steele sign?
Top Five Signs You are a rabid First Read Fan:
1)You watch an entire video of two guys talking about basketball on a computer that doesn't have sound.
2) You watch an entire video of two guys talking about basketball and you actually hate sports.
3) You feel compelled to comment "Chuck Todd! Looks like you've lost weight! Lookin' good fella!"
4) Your co-worker says "who are those guys?" and you say "You mean you don't KNOW?"
and
5) It's the first warm day in months in Maine and, when your co-worker asks if you want to go to lunch you say "Wait a minute, I gotta finish watching this."
OMG Amy!
By far one of the funniest posts I've seen in ages! ROTFLMFAO!
Too funny, Amy! We'll make a sports fan out of you yet! Start by rooting for Pitt in the NCAA March Madness.
I'm not far behind you---I thought when I saw the video---how great that Domenico is wearing a green tie today but Chuck didn't seem to get that memo!
Amy, I love it! #4 might be my favorite but they're all funny.
Amy,
6) Having to read the MSNBC article on the O'Bama picks.
I haven't been able to watch these videos in months! I can't stream at work and choose not to rewind them at night; but I love your list Amy! So true. This site is ADDICTIVE - friendship and therapy all rolled into one convenient stop! ha
Amy:
You are really funny...as well as being an insightful writer.
Thanks Domenico and Chuck T, what a fun Boiler Room. With the horrific disaseters in Japan, Libya, Bahrain and who knows what else, I appreciate the switch to March Madness. I don't follow basketball closely enough to pick beyond a dart-board guess the way many do but the tournaments find me listening and watching.
You are right, Jody----it is nice to take a break from all the seriousness to have fun with March Madness!
Wow, Amy. That's amazing. And, by the way, I was able to get up to Acadia last September, and it was spectacular. Did a great 5.4 mile hike, kayaking, lobster boat, popovers on the lawn, swimming at Echo Lake.
Oh, Domenico, I'm so happy you came up! Now you know why we love Mt. Desert Island!
Amy, That was truly funny especially the comment about Chuck Todd. Enjoy you nice weather.
Steeler fan - it seems like its been an extra long break with this administration as nothing continues to get done about all that "seriousness"
