BH Elite Eight Thread

[jekelish]

Well, we can't really call this an Elite Eight, but Elite Nine doesn't have the same ring to it.

Emmanuelle Chriqui and Kate Upton tied, so after a lot of back and forth and some discussion the majority of the committee members have deemed it appropriate to advance BOTH to the next round, where we'll have a three way with the two of them and Jennifer Lawrence.

I admit to not being the biggest fan of this idea to begin with, but I'll go with the majority and, frankly, any three way that includes those three ladies can't be all bad.

That said, here are the matchups for this round:

24 Region: 1 Lacey Chabert vs 2 Hayden Panettiere

Happy Endings Region: 1 Stacy Keibler vs 3 Olivia Wilde

Girl Next Door Region: 1 Jennifer Lawrence vs 2 Emmanuelle Chriqui vs 6 Kate Upton

Old School Region: 1 Yvonne Strahovski vs 3 Alison Brie

Polls will open soon and remain open for 48 hours.

I'm sorry but you're not a fan of three ways? I'm disappointed in you, jek

 

[jekelish]

I'm a little disappointed in myself but mainly for going chalk with my votes in this round.

Sorry, Alison and Upton!

Depends on what she offers to do for me to earn said advantage.

Oh now I get why you favor her . . . . she's paying you favors. It a;ll makes sense now.

Does the winner have to have a more tha 50% of the vote or a simple just more votes? This is the problem.

Why is that a problem?

I think that what he is saying is that the winner will not have been selected by a majority...

In fairness, we never selected the original hottie by a majority either. JLH was just sort of thrust upon us. I know I never would have voted for her as our board hottie. Nice rack, average everything else.

I get that, just don't see the problem. More votes is more votes. Even the President doesn't get 50% of the vote in every election.

I'm sure if JLH was thrust upon you, you would not complain!

There is a strong possibility that the winner may not even get 40%. And win by only 1 vote! While a President may not get 50%, he has had in the 40's.

A win is a win.

[jekelish]

Looks like three of our 1 seeds will be moving on, with our fourth 1 seed currently down a single vote to a 2 seed.

That's easy - The Fine Nine

Anything with thrust either way and JLH is fine by me.

Which regions will be facing off against each other in the next round?

 

[jekelish]

Which regions will be facing off against each other in the next round?

I believe it's Chabert vs Keibler and Strahovski vs Chriqui/Lawrence

 

[AirForceOrange]

Chabert vs either Strahovski/Chriqui would be interesting...
