Murray – Bedard & Gasper – Volin will duke it out as the Four You Deplore Friday, April 1st, Championship TBD on Monday April 4th. Thank you to all the voters, readers, and assorted hangers-on.






Polls will remain open 24 hours until 1 PM EDT Tuesday, March 29th. Choose carefully, my friends. Courage.




Lou Merloni defeats Mike Felger. Not a sentence that gets written often but applies here. Across the way, Squeaky Mazz loses to his show’s receptionist. Globies win out in the V Region, with Dan perhaps coasting on reputation. Kid Gas doubtless ebullient at his coup over Keefe. Bedard in a no-doubter over Kusnierek after a bloc of illegal votes were excluded, and the 7 seed Tom E. overtops the 6 seeded Marc B. T Region could stand for Ted, who wins handily, and Ben Volin was never in danger of losing to the once-menacing Bert Breer.
These Eight will face off Monday, March 28th.

Welcome back to the March Sadness Tournament! Voting begins on the top half of the Regional Brackets, and the polls will remain open util 5 PM EDT tomorrow, Tuesday March 22.


The March Sadness next round will take place Monday, March 21 and Tuesday, March 22. Enjoy watching collegiate and professional sports in the meanwhile.


The last four have revealed themselves. 32 has become 16. Big Jim, Kid Gas, Trenni, and Bertie. Tight races, save for one, good job by the Selection Committee. Thank you to everyone who voted, and voted, and voted again. The next Round awaits. Schedule forthcoming…



Some boat races, a squeaker, and some shocking upsets out of the N & T Regions. The #1 seeds move on handily, the 7 seed Tom E. ekes out #2 Gresh by the slimmest of margins, while Ted Johnson does better against a surprisingly competitive Matt McCarthy.
But it’s the two Six seeds upsetting the threes that tells the story here. A late groundswell pushed Dan Lifshatz to victory over Alex Reimer, while across the way in the N Region, Marc Bertrand pulls out a W against the very disliked Adam Jones. A group of dedicated single-issue voters sweeping in to protect their beloved reverend sport buzzard, or whatever? Who can say?
