For all the angst this week has brought, it has also brought a lot of fun and inventiveness on the board. This week we've invented a lot of new meme's for Scoop, between Eldon's "IT'S HAPPENING" gif to #done deal. There were also plenty of memes on scoop prior to this week of infuriating hilarity (like slurpers).
So combining this with March Madness, I was thinking, let's have a 64(or 48 if that's all we got) team bracket of the most famous Scoop memes. Anyone interested?
Here's how it would work. Post your favorite memes in posts below, when we have enough I will gather them up, write a short blurb about the meme(or use Scoops help to do that) and then slot them into seeds. Might categorize them into "regions" as well based on specific topics, oh I don't know, like coach searches, etc.
Once the match-ups are established, we can post that, then once a day when the coach search has died down we can have voting on the match ups in a specific region. So a couple of weeks of awesome can keep going.
The reason, to select Scoops favorite meme of all time and keep the fun train running.
Mods, any suggestions/objections?
If you're interested let me know and if for nothing else, the sake of posterity, post your favorite memes in this thread.
We'll never forget you, Brett.

OK, we've got 46 distinct memes at this point. Need at least 2 more for 48. Might be a push to get 18 more for 64 but what the hell we can give it a go.
