2011 Culture Tournament Championship: Kate Upton vs. Bill Simmons


View the entire bracket here.
Bill Simmons trailed DeSean Jackson’s punt return vs. the Giants by 15 votes this morning, but a strong finish propelled The Sports Guy to the narrow, 12-vote, come-from-behind victory. The Final Four rally had the feel of Gonzaga’s collapse against UCLA …
or perhaps the Trail Blazers melting down against the Lakers …
Meanwhile, Kate Upton stomped Blake Griffin in the other semifinal, which sets up the final: ESPN’s biggest draw vs. the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover girl (come on, she’s a lock and you know it). Voting is open today through Monday night.

- 1. Kate Upton (72%, 3,623 Votes)
- 1. Bill Simmons (28%, 1,446 Votes)

Simmons has no chance unless he unleashes his Twitter minions to vote for him. Somehow, I think that is beneath him in his mind.

The only thing that these 2 have in common is a female voice. This starts and ends with Upton. If Simmons wins, y’all are a bunch of homos.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:52 AM
The cleavage in the first pic is spectacular, but I hate the lipstick. I prefer the second picture overall.
/who cares

I’m as big of a Simmons homer as anyone — but Bill you are outgunned here. I dont understand why there are links of videos to an 11 year old NBA game when you have multiple videos available of Ms. Upton.

There are more big-titted blondes out there than funny sportswriters I like to read…the Culture Tournament again becomes a copy of something you’d find on Maxim’s site
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:55 AM
I think I’ve noticed a trend between Culture Bracket champions. Can anyone else figure it out!?
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:55 AM
If the powers that be changed the name of this “culture tournament” to “popularity contest,” I’d be a little less confused as to what its whole point is.
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:56 AM
Upton’s mesmerizing titties > Grantland’s popular culture footprint?
September 2nd, 2011 at 9:58 AM
Maybe have a separate tournament with the 16 or 32 hot chick du jour and have the culture tournament sans hot chicks?

Simmons ceased being funny the day he started putting out cartoons with him and his wife.
Jemele Hill is funnier and she’s not even trying to be funny.

You must be the first person to ever think of this!

The results of this will be like most of the big college teams this weekend over whatever scrub they’re playing

We’ve got the NIT over at Hakim Drops the Ball.

I do have to admit, her boobs look amazing in the first pic.

You want to be a chick in your next life? Hope nobody blasts your makeup or says you’re “fat.”

Reminds of me of the restaurant scene in the third Matrix.

How the hell did Simmons get this far?
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:12 AM
Chicks that ATL_Badger, Cassino and RobJules wouldn’t do?

I don’t think Kate Upton cares too much about her make-up critics when she’s 19, sitting on a pile of cash, will never have to work a day in her life, and has her choice in suitors.

“This week on the B.S. Report…J-Mac!” #Braaaahmmmmm

I laugh at high standards.

I laughed.

When have I ever said this? Again, the only girl I’ve gone on record as saying “no” to is Casey Anthony. But y’all can go FoxNews it up to fit your narrative.

Thats how. Team TBL, campaigning for votes. Heaven forbid DeSean gets to the finals…

forgot to add “/conspiracy theory’d” to that last comment

Coop only kissed one guy too….but you see what we’ve done there.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:17 AM
That we know of…
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:18 AM
Yeah, but that cash is going to go to a nice set of dentures after her teeth rot from the bulemia.

Yeah… I get it.. that’s fine. I just resent the implication that I would kick any of these women out of my bed for eating crackers. Sure I critique and state my preferences, but… sigh.. whatever, have at me. I told SC I’d stop yesterday.

No you’d kick them out of bed because you think they’re fat and not worthy of your dick.

ATL, responding to you sometimes is like a tic. I can’t help myself.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:21 AM
Just embrace it. The only reason no one makes fun of me for being a fashionista is that it wouldn’t bother me.

Upton’s got this thing in the bag. I can feel it down in my plums.

Yup. You make it easy, ATL_Badger.

This is true. Half the fun in engaging ATL is that you know he’ll respond and try to defend himself.

Culture Tournament 2012 Winner = (Hottest Girl in brackets). Repeat for ’13, ’14, etc.

/ ++++++ on that second part
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:37 AM
Kate Upton is just stupid hot. That first picture is (whistles).
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:40 AM
Why do people love Simmons? I don’t get it. He should have lost to Bilas twitter feed and then lost to Jackson’s punt return.
September 2nd, 2011 at 10:56 AM
Upton better crush Simmons. If not, this voting system is gay.
September 2nd, 2011 at 12:40 PM
Simmons is only slightly less insufferable than colin cowherd.
September 2nd, 2011 at 12:53 PM
Simmons doesn’t even talk about sports anymore, just sh*tty reality TV. He should switch from ESPN to E.
September 2nd, 2011 at 2:18 PM
I haven’t mentioned Rona Gonzales even once today.
Until now.

I am shocked – SHOCKED – that Upton won. No. Really. Shocked.
