MARCHIFORNICATION BRACKET MADNESS: THOU FIRST ROUND IS OVERETH OR SOMETHING

Marchifornication_bracket2_medium

Round one is completely in the books. No upsets, which displeases us mightily. Sort of. Actually, no it doesn't, because we really weren't prepared to have Jamie Pollard in the finals or anything.

Next week, obviously, will consist of the "Elite Quarterfinals" from Monday through Thursday; Friday, like today, will be reserved for picking up the pieces after (spoiler alert) Acie Earl comes in with a Mossberg and decapitates everyone at point blank range. Stay tuned.

Voting results are below the break.

Star-divide

J Leman Region

(1) Ricky Stanzi beat (8) Tyger Kuntz, 656-77

(4) Girls Generation beat (5) Chrissy Lee, 486-167

(3) Bloodpunch Barta beat (6) Jamie Pollard, 320-53

(2) Joe Paterno and TROLOLOLOLOLOLOOOOO beat (7) Cornshoe Hammaker, disqualification

Bob Zook Region

Acie Earl comes in with a Mossberg and decapitates everyone at point blank range.

Wow, I guess he is really tired of being ignored by the athletic department.

Or, is Acie the “big-name hire” we are all wondering about? LOL

About the bracket: from the point that this started to now, I thought there was no way HockeyBear could lose. However, now I realize he (or it, if it is a supernatural sexless bear?) has to beat MFSash, then probably Metcalf, and maybe match up with Stanzi for the title. Can I really root for some animated omnivore (albeit, an awesome one) to knock off Hawkeyes three times in a row? Color me conflicted.

The right-hand side of the bracket is weaksauce.

The three strongest competitors are all on the left-hand side of the bracket (Stanzi, Girls Gen, JoePa). Terrible competitive balance there… if I knew who set up the bracket, I’d give them a piece of my mind…

TMFS could be an unexpectedly difficult obstacle for HOCKEYBEAR after his smackdown of Barbasol. Metcalf struggled with Ace, so he could be in trouble against Brewster unless Brewster’s patented EPIC FAIL genes kick in.

When are Brewster's

epic fail genes ever not in full swing already?

by HeroPatriotStanzi on Mar 12, 2010 2:47 PM CST up reply actions  

Hey...

don’t forget, Brewster has won a couple of Super Bowls. Those wins don’t belong to Mike Shanahan, they belong to Brew.

and he never lost 55-0

the game never happened. Darn near perfect record.

by ChryslerKinnick on Mar 12, 2010 4:19 PM CST up reply actions  

and if you take away

all those losses to Iowa, Penn State, Ohio State, North Dakota State, etc – then he would have a pretty good coaching record

by HeroPatriotStanzi on Mar 12, 2010 4:51 PM CST up reply actions  

Based on raw vote total in the first round

it looks like Stanzi is the odds-on favorite to win the title.

Both sides of the bracket have some pretty strong contenders, though. You know what they say, “Anything can happen in Marchifornication.”

Everyone who didn't vote for Ace is stupid and hates children.

Also, everyone who didn't vote for Ace secretly loves Daryll Clark.

Ha ha

Tyger Kuntz got more votes than Jamie Pollard.

by LVS on Mar 12, 2010 4:06 PM CST reply actions  

If I was inclined to be fair...

I would point out that Pollard’s MARCHIFORNICATION bout got overshadowed by both the Iowa-Michigan game yesterday AND the ensuing Lickliter drama… but fuck that. It is funny that he got fewer votes than goddamn Tyger Kuntz.

Who the shit is Chrissy Lee?

Krissy Cox vs. Chrissy Lee

In the consolation bracket?

Uhmmm.

I did a quick google search for Chrissy Lee. The top hit was an IMDB link for some girl named Chrissy Li. I’ll let you be the judge here.

by EnergizerHawk on Mar 13, 2010 10:16 AM CST up reply actions  

She had to change her name from Cox to Lee

to prevent the 14 jNWU fans from hurting her after she berated their school in national print

by HeroPatriotStanzi on Mar 13, 2010 11:33 AM CST up reply actions  

She was almost killed

By a jet black farrari while shopping on Michigan Avenue. Had to do something.

So she did "All About Ass 2"?

Guess people have to get paid somehow…

They took the bar, the whole fucking bar!

Actually, it was red

It's only the first round

anything can happen from here. Typically defenses really pack it in after the first round so that really favors Metcalf.

Nothing favors Metcalf.

He does well beating up on adorable little puppies, but good luck against real competition, Daryll.

I probably shouldn’t be so bitter, but I love cute dogs. You guys are all jerks.

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

Tigers of Rusty Kuntz?

EXACTLY

how I read that card. I wonder if that type of tiger is more dangerous for having survived the exodus from jagged, tentanus-ridden narrow opening?
