    Here are the winners of the final bracket :

    6 - chevious minnifield(will face Behad next round)

    1 - Jeff
    4 - Dr of Dunk

    3 - SamCassell
    2 - Mango(defeated the extremely strong sim league vote)

    ---------------

    1 - CBrownFanClub
    5 - Raven Lunatic

    6 - Johnny Rocket
    2 - Old School.


    Now, here are the next matchups. The usual rules apply, 48 hour voting period, e-mail votes are accepted, politicking is encouraged. I've decided to only post 4 match-ups this time, because the match-ups are much harder than before.

    9 - Manny_Ramirez
    5 - RocketmanTex

    3 - tacoma park legend
    2 - rimbaud

    --------------

    1 - Clutch
    5 - BandGeekMobster

    6 - Dadakota
    2 - Achebe

    Good luck to all the participants.

    manny ramirez -- he posts therefore he is. he's got range. he's got decorum. he starts threads. he keeps threads going. not afraid to be vulnerable. not vengeful when others are spiteful. give it up for manny, y'all. [p.s. whatever happened with the girl co-worker, m? sorry if it's a sore subject]

    rimbaud -- hakeem olajuwon, in his book of the same name [tee hee] once said of michael jordan, "other players feel like he is a lion roaming around the jungle". this is how I feel about rimbaud and his posts.

    band geek mobster -- here's where it's so hard to separate clutch the website provider from clutch the poster. but if I have to say goodbye to only the posts of either of these stalwarts, I'd bid adieu to clutch's epistles.

    dadakota -- another battle of titans. only achebe is a little more titanic these days since he pulled a "jack" move and sunk to the bottom of the Ocean of Not Posting. only dadakota's heart will go on. . .

    I'd like to take this opportunity to thank anyone who's voted for me in the first two rounds. specifically, I'd like to thank raven lunatic for calling my posts funny.

    best of luck to behad in the next round.

    9 - Manny_Ramirez - Did a good job lobbying for his vote despite being a Red Sox fan. ;)
    5 - RocketmanTex

    3 - tacoma park legend Tough call, but TPL's basketball knowledge helps him win out. Plus, TPL is much younger, so he has a brighter future, and you always take young talent over the old farts

    1 - Clutch -
    5 - BandGeekMobster - Quality lobbying with the girly pics. :D

    6 - Dadakota
    2 - Achebe - Funniest poster on the board, bar none. Now if only he would come back...

    Damn...Raven, RocketmanTex is like in his 40s and I'm only 28. Isn't he an old fart??;)

    Did I mean to tell you that I love "Master of Puppets" and I'm getting "Cowboys From Hell"? I'm also thinking about getting some progressive rock....

    What a good day for the CBrownFanClub, advances to the third round and gets an article about them in the NY Times.

    BTW, Good match-up Swopa. I am stuck against O.S. this round which means I have about the same chance of advancing to the sweet 16 as Yale does.

    Good enough for me. You were also rewarded simply for attempting to lobby, which I think would add a lot to this competition if more people took advantage. :D

    Vote changed. Also, for a decent example of some prog rock, try downloading Dream Theater's song "The Great Debate." It sounds more like Tool than Tool's last album.
