One door closes, another door opens
I’ll be closing the cheese poll shortly, so if you haven’t voted yet — or want to clear your caches and take one more run at it — now’s the time.
Thank you all for participating; we really had fun with it. And — dun! — the fun is probably not over!
Over the course of the NCheeseAA, Keck and I had various inspirations for other brackets we could build: candy; chips; ballpark snacks; you name it. And Joe R and I still haven’t gotten our all-time ugliest/hottest baseball players tourney off the ground after like three years of discussing it, so we could do that too.
What do you think we should bracket next? Food, people, overrated literary figures — if you’ve got a bracket idea, I want to hear it. Email me at bunting at tomatonation dot com with the subject line “next bracket.”

Are those for real? Because: awesome. I like the Bonham Boogers; someone should send that to Rupert (I know, missing a letter, but too close not to call out, sorry). And Paris Parasites – it’s obvious where my mind went. I can’t be the only one.
Oh, not franchise NAMES. Just the franchises themselves. The Seattle Pilots aren’t exactly an awesome NAME, but any franchise that has a story about a guy that got trapped in the Port-a-Potty overnight (of COURSE the Pilots used Port-a-Pottys!) and took off in a dead sprint when maintenance let him out in the morning? Gold.
Guilty pleasure movies. “Steel Magnolias” vs. “Shag,” anyone?
If we do awful movies, there’s a Meryl Streep stinker called “Plenty” which I submit FTW. It is, quite possibly, the worst film ever committed to celluloid. Or cellotape. It’s a gouge-out-eyes-before viewing stinker. I can’t bring myself to watch Dumb and Dumber, but I know that I’d watch Andrew Dice Clay in anything before I’d watch Meryl Streep again in that horror.
Another vote for over-rated literary figures. PLEASE…?? Seriously, that sounds like so much fun. Can we put Dan Brown on the list? (Although I guess “literary” is a bit of a stretch in that case.)
