I'll See Your Barkevious And Raise You A Macadangdang


It's all come down do this. 62 have been eliminated, only two remain, and time is running out. Every one of you should go to Name of the Year and cast your ballots for the final two, Barkevious Mingo, the 4 seed from the Bulltron Region or Iris Macadangdang, the one seed from the Chrotchtangle Region.

I realize this plug is a bit late, and if you've visited Deadspin, BON, or Every Day Should Be Saturday within the last six weeks, you've already seen the ballot and have possibly voted. However, for my dad and father-in-law, here's your chance to be exposed to the greatest internet time-waster, EVER. Please, even if you don't vote, check out the original bracket and laugh your patooty off at some of the gems presented by NOTY. And yes, for inquiring minds, the 5 seed in the Dragon Wagon Region is in fact Temple High's Lache Seastrunk, the number one (or two, depending on who you ask) rated running back prospect in the state for 2010.

Some personal favorites that didn't make the finals: Shot Kleen, Velvet Milkman, Muffin Lord, Calamity McEntire, Bunkless Bovian. Honestly, what is going on here?

My two cents: Barkevious is a Texan, and he gets my vote, even though he's abandoning the great state and attending LSU in the fall. Geaux get 'em, Barkevious.

I think Barkevious is actually from West Monroe, Louisiana, and because he is from that state to our East, I'm voting for ol' Iris.

Macadangdang forever!!!

Yeah, he's currently attending West Monroe (LA) High.

However, his little bio on NOTY says he's a native Texan.

I don't know what to believe anymore in this crazy world we live in.

Me thinks he probably grew up in Texas and moved to the Lou at some point in HS. I have no idea if that's right, just a thought. I'm sure the all-knowing Wikipedia could shed some light on the matter, but it's almost 1:30am and I'm going to bed.

Good night Barkevious, Goodnight Macadangdang.

Lance,

That is a distinct possibility.

Also a possibility? That West Monroe, a LA high-school football factor, recruited Lord Barkevious to participate in their journey towards domination of the Louisiana bigh school football landscape.

Who really knows, folks?

Barkevious, if you're out there, please settle this debate.
