Former president and Inglorious Bitches (2011)cool dad Barack Obama is keeping his March Madness tradition alive by dropping his bracket for the upcoming NCAA men's and women's basketball tournaments.

And then, the brackets, with a nod to "good citizenship" and "sportsmanship" -- perhaps a subtle hint of shade directed at current President Donald Trump, who passed on doing a bracket because he's busy with a hip-hop beef.
In the spirit of good sportsmanship & good citizenship, here are @barackobama's picks for #MarchMadness 2017: https://t.co/wRuCz6LBvc pic.twitter.com/UrZkpbkZHi

For the men's tournament, Obama goes chalk, picking two No. 2 seeds (Duke and Arizona) and two No. 1 seeds (North Carolina and Kansas), with UNC topping Duke in the final. For the women, he's riding top seed UConn all the way because he isn't an idiot; the rest of his Final Four there are two No. 1 seeds (South Carolina and Notre Dame) and a No. 3 seed (Washington).
Anyone who remembers Obama's bracket picks while in office, though, knows he's not that great at picking winners. And Twitter users were quick to weigh in on his choices and point out a few mistakes.
@ObamaFoundation @BarackObama Duke in the final... tragic. This is my biggest disappointment of your presidency, Mr. Obama.

But maybe Obama's feeling confident. After all, he recently lunched with Warren Buffet in Omaha and Buffet is known for his big bucks bracket pool.
