Barstool March Madness TV Tournament - Second Round Voting Now Open

TVTourneyRound2

 

First round votes are IN. About 7,100 voters in all. Oddly enough there are different vote totals for different matchups so that means some people are voting on certain games but not others which is straight up lunatic behavior. Who fills out only a portion of a bracket?? For the most part chalk but here are the upsets: (and at the bottom are the total vote and percentage breakdown of all the match ups and round 2 voting)

8. Corey Matthews over 9. Shawn Hunter – Yea I know Corey was the 8 seed and the favorite, but you are a LOSER if you voted for Corey over Shawn so I guess the upset is how many losers out there are voting.

10. Frank Gallagher over 7. Sam Malone – This is straight up a timing thing. Portnoy and Rear Ads probably would flip the fuck out if they knew Sam Malone was a first round exit. But Shameless is popular in 2015 and to be perfectly fair, William H. Macy is incredible as Frank. I know this isnt a serious bracket about acting but fair is fair that character is incredible

12. Uncle Jesse over 5. Fonz – To be honest without guys like The Fonz there arent guys like Jesse Katsopolis. Fonie pretty much invented cool on television. But Uncle Jesse took that torch and ran with it. Hes in a band – Jesse and the Rippers. Owns a club – the Smash Club. Has a smoke wife – Aunt Becky. Incredible flow. And a catch phrase that has withstood the test of time. Have Mercy. I’ll be perfectly honest I made him a 12 seed because of the classic 12 v 5 upset.

9. Fresh Prince over 8. Zack Morris – Because A) Stoolies are a bunch white-guilt-voting-asses and B) Black Twitter got ahold of this bracket yesterday afternoon and I think they realized there was only like 4 black people total and they needed a couple wins. I myself would take Zack Morris no doubt about it. Hurts to lose the Fresh Prince of Bel Air but Zack was a 90s God. Landed the hottest TV chick of the 90s Kelly Kapowski and he was the ultimate schemer. But Will Smith ran away with it. Wasnt even close

(8) Zack Morris 2009 25.60%
(9) Fresh Prince 5133 65.50%

And the big upset of the day….

13. Dr. House over 4. Ben Linus – Are you fucking kidding me? I mean honest is this for real??? I thought there must have been some fuck up in the voting. Nope, there it is in plain numbers:

(4) Ben Linus 3263 41.60%
(13) Dr. House 3777 48.20%

Atrocious. Ben Linus was one of the best villains of all time. A true diabolical mastermind (or so he thought) with a heart made of stone and a brain bigger than everyone elses combined. Include that prick Dr. House. Ben Linus would have been able to diagnose all those idiot patients and he would have just told them the wrong medication to watch them die slow. Because thats how sick he was. More importantly, if you cant tell by now, I rigged this entire thing for good first and second round match ups and this COMPLETELY RUINS my Gus Fring v Ben Linus showdown. So fuck you guys, you ruined my whole plan.
