Culture Tournament Sweet 16: Sweater Vest vs. Kevin Arnold, Bill Simmons vs. Jay Bilas

2011 Culture Tournament, All Jason McIntyre August 29th. 2011, 9:55am

The defending champ has been ousted. Over the weekend, Mila Kunis repeatedly held off late charges from 2010 Culture Tourney winner Brooklyn Decker to pull the upset, 51-49 (by only 32 votes!) in one of the closest matchups of the tournament. Will Kunis have anything left against tourney favorite Kate Upton in the Elite 8?

Jimmer Fredette is one win away from being the first 16-seed in anything (ever!)* to reach the Final 4.

After today’s voting, we’ll be down to the Elite 8. The plan is to have those matchups tomorrow, then take Wednesday off to let hype build for the Final Four. The semifinals will be Thursday and the finals will last throughout Labor Day weekend. We’ll crown the champ next Tuesday.

Agreed. It is criminal that Gus Johnson is still in this thing.

Kunis over Upton would be almost as big a travesty as Gus over Marv. Almost.

Decker’s claim to fame in the last year was starring in an Adam Sandler movie, she brought this on herself

If that happens, I’m moving to a different planet. Cute,kinny chicks with no tits serve a purpose sometimes, but beautiful, soft in all the right spots gals make the world go round.

Desean Jackson’s punt return! When I win my fantasy week, the punter gets fired and the Giants miss the playoffs all in the same play you have to support that. I will only vote for Upton should she appear topless.

This is false. Her claim to fame is big tits, skinny waist, and nice ass. And the gif.

I believe her status as an SI Swimsuit edition cover girl is slightly more notable.

Wasn’t the GIF around this time last year? Her losing is karma for the shenanigans of last year’s voting where she was doomed in the championship until pandering to people who probably haven’t been back to the site since
I believe her status as an SI Swimsuit edition cover girl is slightly more notable.
This was also a last year achievement, Irina Shayk claimed the title this year

Not me. I’m not sure if I like Scott Van Pelt more than Johnson but Johnson shouldn’t have beaten Marv so that led me to vote against Gus.

I bear no ill will towards Gus, but him beating Marv shows a lack of common sense and decency amongst TBL voters.

“Breaking Bad” can never lose. It’s been four seasons of pure win. DeSean may claim the Culture Tourney title, but that glory is fleeting. Heisenberg and Pinkman will live forever, in our hearts and in Mexican narcocorrido.

I’m not sure how you can have three possibilities, so I flipped a coin and ended up picking the Giants.

AL MVP should be Joey Bats. Much more valuable to his team than Grandy is.
Plus a higher WAR as well.
NV MVP = Kemp
