March Madness is here, and the basketball action heats up in Milwaukee this week as the Bradley Center hosts the Midwest and West regional rounds of the "big dance." With fans flocking from near and far, the editorial staff at OnMilwaukee.com thought we'd help greet our new visitors with a week's worth of features and guides to everything that makes our city a great place to visit. It's "Welcome to Milwaukee Week" at OnMilwaukee.com!

As fans put the finishing touches on their 2010 NCAA Tournament bracket sheets, many are trying to predict just how far Marquette and Wisconsin can go in this year's Big Dance.

A lot of college basketball experts think the Badgers and Golden Eagles have what it takes to at least get past the first round and maybe into the Sweet 16.

It looks like President Obama thinks so, too.

According to a picture released today by ESPN, Obama picked both Marquette (which opens Thursday against Washington) and Wisconsin (which plays Friday against Wofford) will move on to next weekend's East Regional Semifinals in Syracuse, N.Y.

The picture shows Obama picked Marquette to get past New Mexico and Wisconsin by Cornell in second-round match-ups.

Unfortunately, the photo doesn't show Obama's full bracket, but media reports say that the First Fan -- who also filled out a women's bracket -- picked Kansas, Kansas State, Kentucky and Villanova to make the Final Four.
