March Madness Gone Mad

If you give us guys long enough, we can turn anything into a competition.
If we go camping and someone chucks a rock at a tree, an intense game of “Hit the Tree with a Rock” can ensue and friendships can be on the line.
We can even turn established competitions into competitions.
Enter Tyler Stanton.
He approached several of his fellow bloggers and proposed an idea — what would happen if some of the funniest television characters from the last 20 years faced off in their own version of March Madness?
Tyler proposed a great question.
Initially, my response was — “What’s March Madness?”
Then it was — “How do you do a draft?”
Followed by — “Could you explain that draft thing again to me?”
After several conversations and fierce “Who Can Flip Their Straw Wrapper Into Their Cup First” matches, I felt good about the plan.

Those involved are Bryan Allain, Tyler Stanton, Scott Moore, Tyler Tarver, David Robbins, Jordan Green, Knox McCoy and of course, me.
Tyler actually described the competition well when he guest posted on Scott Moore’s blog.
