maintaining awesomeness
one day at a time

First, we’d like to thank everyone who participated. We’re going to continue to do more stuff like this as the site progresses, so stick around. Assorted flatware could be in your future.

Second, we’d like to thank Mario Chalmers. His big time player heroics last night buoyed Booth into 4th place (Booth picked Kansas to win it all) and single-handily prevented us from having to spend a day mailing t-shirts. How much of a Booth move is it to write an article about how you wish you could re-pick Memphis to win it, then actually have the team you originally picked win it all? What. An. Asshole.

And lastly, we’d like to congratulate Team Cool & Tough’s own, Toast, for being Chalky Chalkerson. Never before has such a cripplingly weak bracket taken home the grand prize. Enjoy your steak knives. Looks like you’re going to have to scrap those plans of becoming a vegetarian.

Here’s the final top ten if you’re interested (click to enlarge):

Special congrats to Cup-da-Ballz for being the only person we don’t know to beat Booth. Email us your address and we’ll get you that t-shirt pronto. (Proto, you’re going to have to pry your t-shirt from our cold, dead hands.)

    no t-shirt for a tie?….this must be espn sponsored.

  2. NextRound Says:

    If you’re the Hansbrough team, Booth beat you on the tie breaker because he won more overall games, but seeing that he didn’t suck anywhere close to as much as we all thought he would, and that we only have a couple of shirts to mail out, shoot us an email and we’ll get you one.
