Nitwit With The Best March Madness Bracket Didn't Pick A Winner

 

James Kiki, a South Sudanese man living in Syracuse, New York, is currently the envy of millions of Americans right now.

 

With just three games left in the NCAA Tournament, he has picked 48 of 60 games correctly. His Final Four is perfect, and his Villanova-UNC title game pick and final score prediction seem very reasonable. 

 

His Yahoo.com bracket is currently tied with two others for first place in the entire pool, meaning he has done better than millions of other people who filled out brackets earlier this month. He seemingly has a one-in-three chance of nabbing the $50,000 cash prize awarded this year for the best bracket. 

 

In a way you could say Kiki is lucky. He doesn't care about college basketball and he's never filled out a bracket until this year when he decided to on a whim. 

 

"I was like, 'What the heck. Let me just try it because, why not?" Kiki said to Syracuse.com. 

 

Except, Kiki's luck is not going to pay off, because the silly man forgot to pick a national champion. HE JUST DIDN'T PUT ANYTHING AT ALL.

 

"I don't even want to think about it," he lamented. 

 

Kiki said he would've picked Villanova to win it all, but because he didn't choose a national champion, he's ineligible for any prizes at all.

 

As Deadspin pointed out, Kiki is not alone in his carelessness -- three of Yahoo's top 30 brackets have no assigned winner, likely because their bracket-picking system is confusing. Once a user goes through their previous 62 choices by just clicking on names, an easy-to-miss button to pick a national champion pops up at the top of the page.  

 

In conclusion, sports are dumb.
