Controllers union, so everybody else will start to look at these records, whether they can stand on substance or just full of hot air. jasons mitt romney isn t just the 1% he s the top 0.1% on college basketball brackets. romney picked duke to win it all last night, and the blue devils beat the wisconsin badgers to win the championship but romney had near-perfect picks. he bracket ranked imperil than 99.9% of the 11.5 million others filled out on on espn.com. he tweeted should i have put that $10,000 on my bracket? congrats coach k and duke u. that is in reference to the bet in the presidential debate. jason, pretty funny joke from mitt. can you buy romney as a basketball analyst?
