  that's pretty sweet

  That's pretty amazing! Makes you wonder if it's pure coincidence or if it's a function of his autism; either way it's pretty amazing!

  Hard to believe, good for him..........
• cat_lover

  Wow!! That's some good picking.
• vball10set

  I wonder if he watches Judge Wapner or shops at K-Mart....definitely great job picking!!!

  The odds of anybody doing that? One in 13,460,000, according to BookofOdds.com. It's easier to win the lottery. Twice.

  Someone buy this man a lottery ticket.

  He has Purdue winning it all. His bracket is soon to be busted.

  Nice. A kid where the old lady does her physcial rehab is autistic and he bowls 300 on the WII regularly.

  How did he get Ohio over Georgetown? I am sure that tripped up most people outside of Athens.

  Sorry, but I'm a bit skeptical.

  Autism doesn't enter into it. Luck, however, does.

  I dont believe this for a second.

  Is this the same autistic kid who shot all those 3 pointers?

  That was Jason McElwain and that was a cool story bro.

  It is pretty hard to believe and the fact that he says he has a system he uses for it makes it even harder to believe.

  I was like, "WOW!" until I got down towards the end of the article where it mentions you can change your picks AFTER the game. Once I read that, I stopped buying.

  Yeah, I just read through the whole article instead of just skimming the first few paragraphs. I don't buy it.

  Right when I heard this, I thought "scam" and that this was a ploy for attention since the kid is autistic. Very rude of this family to take advantage of their kid like this. Here is the part that everyone should read.
  

  CBSSports.com can not confirm Alex's entry -- the company doesn't track entries to their Bracket Manager program. Unlike CBSSports' Bracket Challenge, which ranks players nationally and locks entries once the tournament begins, Bracket Challenge does allow changes after play starts.
  
  The Hermanns insist, however, that they filled out their brackets as a family before the tournament started, and haven't touched the picks since. When asked whether the bracket was altered after the tourney began, Alex's mother said, simply, "no."

  And he coincidentally only entered his bracket into 1 of 3 CBSSports bracket challenges, the only one which doesn't provide a prize. Suspicious, anyone?

  Shit, if I could change my picks after games, I'd have a perfect bracket, too. Maybe. I was really drunk for four days straight to celebrate the opening two rounds of the tournament, so I probably would have screwed something up...
• thavoice

  Hell...my 4 yr old nephew picked kansas and villanova gettin beat, as well as gtown....
  
  but he also has Wofford winning it all.....
  
  This is the frist year we included the 5 neices/nephews in the contest...and they were for a good laugh when grading them!
