In the spirit of the NCAA Tournament (and countless other bracket-oriented stuff), there is a Chicago-area sports talk duo named Boers and Bernstein who every year put on a "tournament of bad." They assemble a bracket of generally "bad stuff," then have their listeners vote on the winners, or rather, the losers (the object here is to vote for what is worst). I post this here because some of it is sports-related, as you might suspect, and some of it is just plain funny.

Here is the link: http://www.670thescore.com/pages/6586508.php

Some of my personal favorite matchups (ask yourself, which is worse?):

Play-In Game: ATM Fees -or- Nose Hair
A chimp who'll eat your face -or- The New Jersey Nets
Whale training at Sea World -or- NBA Slam Dunk Contest
Chris Henry's efforts to turn his life around -or- techno music
Tim Tebow -or- Rod Blegojevich
Mark McGwire's phony remorse -or- Lady Gaga
Chicago's olympic bid -or- air travel
Co-ed sports -or- Ben Roethlisberger's off-field decision making process

Some of the stuff on their are inside jokes or Chicago-specific stuff, but there's also some pretty funny matchups in there. Just thought I'd share.
