Author Topic: The Meme tournament is happening....finally (Read 17647 times)

I hit upon an idea a couple of weeks ago to collect all the Scoop memes, record them and create a tournament bracket to decide the ultimate Scoop meme.

Scoop, per usual, came through with flying colors forcing me to put together a 68 meme bracket that's taken me a little longer than anticipated to complete. Nevertheless, I believe I've got everything put together and just need to start publishing to Scoop tonight. I will be making extensive use of the Wiki and the poll functionality in Scoop.

So here is how this is going to play out. I will create polls for each match up and those match ups will have approximately 48 hours to be voted on. Once 48 hours is passed the meme with the most votes in each match up will move on. I'm going to try and do 4 match-ups every two days(so 4 polls). Feel free to post in the threads especially if you are correcting something I screwed up.

I should have everything kicked off tomorrow starting with the 4 play-in games. To wet your beak please see the PDFs in the next post

Awesome piece of work

Wow!!! "It's Happening" comes out of nowhere gets a 4-seed after a short lifespan and will take on "Andy Katz is a Badger" at #13.

As hot as It's Happening is....I smell upset over that tried-and-true blue-blood.

Great work!

I had completely forgotten about the Spanish O'Donnell's until I read that.

Also, "legendary coach" remains one of my personal favorites.

Well done!

This is awesome. Looking forward to the potential (it's happening gif vs. respect the process) matchup.

Well done, indeed.

Excellent work!

I'm calling the first ever #16 over #1 upset in Tourney history, as Hologram Al takes down I4. Book it!

Need to fix a typo in the dictionary for UDPride. "The Big East Confidence"

Would love to see a UDPride vs. ABD matchup.

ummm don't tell my work since they subsidized a fair amount, like with most of my Scoop posting.....besides using a lot of search, excel filtering, and generally lazy writing shorted the process fairly significantly.

I believe there could be an entire 64 meme tournaments featuring exclusively Crean related things.

Whether it be giving his son all the awards at camp, getting gold Hummers for all coaches, the hyperbaric chamber, leaving Chapman home and bringing freshman to NYC for media day, turning over his entire coaching staff multiple times, his sweaty pregame speeches, his ties, calling a female Memphis fan fat, his father in law, Ben Sheets/Mike McCarthy/Tony LaRussa, showing up at Bulls practice to watch Scott Merritt get cut, the Gold, losing by 47 points at Louisville, trailing by 29 points at half (!) in New Orleans...the list goes on and on and on!

What a Dick that guy was!!

I think you're in good company.

Now where's that Boss Button on Scoop?!

Well done, lad!

I got a 5 seed. Nice. Not going to let the 5-12 upset come from my part of the bracket. Shooting to be the first 5 seed ever to win the Tourney.

I think I coined I4, but I could be wrong.

Tom Crean did that.
