If you didn't make the bracket, its either becase your too good a poster to match up everyone else up against, or I don't like you The Winners of the Previous brackets : Bracket 7 1 - Doc Rocket 8 - across110thstreet 13 - moestavern19 5 - rockHead 3 - thacabbage 6 - chievious minnifield 10 - Hottoddie 2 - Behad Bracket 8 1 - CBrownFanClub 9 - Joe Joe 5 - Raven Lunatic 4 - aelliot 3 - Swopa 6 - Johnny Rocket 10 - DVauthrin 2 - Old School Now on to the second round Brackets. I will post 8 matchups to vote on, if you wonder how I matched the two brackets up, just look at the one-seeds, that's how I did it. 1 - crispee 9 - Manny_Ramirez 5 - Rocketman Tex 4 - Grizzled 3 - tacoma park legend 6 - mc mark 10 - Castor27 2 - Rimbaud -------------------- 1 - Clutch 8 - Nugzfan 5 - Band Geek Mobster 4 - The Cat 3 - TheFreak 6 - DaDakota 10 - The Voice of Reason 2 - Achebe There will be a 48-hr voting period per bracket, either post, or e-mail me with your choices. Some of these choices are very hard, please try not to abstain.
1 - crispee 9 - Manny_Ramirez **** Crispee is damn good, but it's hard to vote for someone who hasn't been on the BBS lately. Manny has also had some very good posts in recent weeks. 5 - Rocketman Tex **** 4 - Grizzled Not extremely familiar with either poster, so I go to the Rockets fan! 3 - tacoma park legend **** 6 - mc mark TPL is logical, insightful, and mature beyond his years. One of the better posters around. 10 - Castor27 **** 2 - Rimbaud How can I vote against the only other person from Beaumont? -------------------- 1 - Clutch **** 8 - Nugzfan Clutch is great, plus Nugzfan overreacts at times. 5 - Band Geek Mobster 4 - The Cat **** Well, I better vote for myself, cause I doubt if that many more people will. BGM's a good poster, plus I don't post all that often in the Hangout, so this is probably it for me. 3 - TheFreak **** 6 - DaDakota Both quality posters, but I think dakota overreacts too much to bad losses. 10 - The Voice of Reason **** 2 - Achebe Too many disagreements with HEB during his time here, and, like crispee, he's been gone for weeks or months.
Okay, I just want to say that I'm just going to vote and not comment on why. Everybody that has made it to this point are all people that I could see myself voting for. Winners are bolded. 1 - crispee 9 - Manny_Ramirez 5 - Rocketman Tex 4 - Grizzled 3 - tacoma park legend 6 - mc mark 10 - Castor27 2 - Rimbaud -------------------- 1 - Clutch 8 - Nugzfan 5 - Band Geek Mobster 4 - The Cat 3 - TheFreak 6 - DaDakota 10 - The Voice of Reason 2 - Achebe

1 - crispee - he's been gone for a while now, but my memory is not short, loved his posting 9 - Manny_Ramirez 5 - Rocketman Tex 4 - Grizzled - this matchup I guess could go either way as I'm not all updated on the posting, but I have seen more of Grizzled posts (or noticed more) and I always like posters from other teams that's not trolls 3 - tacoma park legend - I've noticed tpl's post more, so he gets the vote. If I just read more hangout I bet I would know more of mc mark's work. 6 - mc mark 10 - Castor27 2 - Rimbaud - hard vote again, but I have rimmy edging Castor -------------------- 1 - Clutch - can't vote against Clutch, although Nugzfan has nice humour in his post. (I do however think Clucth came down hard on him once, I saw that post as in jest) 8 - Nugzfan 5 - Band Geek Mobster 4 - The Cat - Sorry BGM, you rule too, but I have always loved Cat sticking up for the rockets that get's bashed a lot 3 - TheFreak - I need no beta-testting - Freak has some cool posts, even if he comes out a bit freaky sometimes 6 - DaDakota 10 - The Voice of Reason 2 - Achebe - Like VOR's posting a lot, but HEB gets the vote.
1 - crispee 9 - Manny_Ramirez ...crispee has no chance. Not even close. 5 - Rocketman Tex ...RM Tex drinks Dr. Pepper...I did say that before, right? 4 - Grizzled 3 - tacoma park legend ...no vote 6 - mc mark ... no vote 10 - Castor27 2 - Rimbaud ...logical. -------------------- 1 - Clutch ...wins, but not as easily as you would think. 8 - Nugzfan 5 - Band Geek Mobster 4 - The Cat ...tough choice, but he believes in Cat like me. 3 - TheFreak 6 - DaDakota ...My personal choice for the no.1 poster. 10 - The Voice of Reason ...(hard choice, very!) I decided to stop voting for posters who aren't here. If he was here, it would probably go the other way...still close and VOR is a good poster. we miss you Achebe, come back! 2 - Achebe
