<< Round of 16
Semi-Finals >>
It’s down to the Effective Eight of the Effectively Wild Tournament. First, the results from the Sweep Sixteen:
The tandem of Webb-Albers (1) showed Bonds-like dominance against Bonds himself, racking up 91% of the total.
Drafts of Everything (3) narrowly edged out “Ben Isn’t Here” by 3 votes, getting 51%.
Smash Mouth (1) exterminated the Crickets, finishing with 70%
Fat Player Photos (3) were too much for the EW Reliever League, with 69% of the vote.
Multiples of 5 (5) silenced the Squeaky Laugh (1), with a 54% total.
“If Baseball Were Different” (3) got the same winning results, defeating the Silly Position with 78%.
The Wobbly Chair (5) sent the Honda Fit rolling off a cliff, taking 62%.
D-Backs Headlines (3) derailed Snowpiercer, with a decisive 83%.
Now it’s on to the Effective Eight. Can our favorite relievers get the final 3 outs? Will Smash Mouth get back to the top of the charts? Wobbly Wobbly Gone? You decide! (Read more about the Carleton/Levine Region entries, and the McCullough/Wojciechowski Region entries — includes sound clips).

D-Back headlines cannot win, guys! It’s an Arizona Republic creation!
Meanwhile, the Wobbly Chair is 100% Ben & Sam and will, surely, soon replace the Hot Seat in professional news media.

In my book it’s not as much “D-Backs Headline Contest” as it is “Ben & Sam sarcastically comments on D-Backs Headline Contest” 🙂

I’m really torn in the “if baseball were different…” / “Multiples of 5” matchup…
