Have you ever wondered what would happen if all the superstars from the last eight years of GoBoilers.com Tournaments were to battle each other? Who hasn't, right? Well, Jethro, your sleepless nights are over ... welcome to The 2008 GoBoilers.com Tournament of Champions, Near Champions, and Bill Walton!

     Here's how it works: the Tournament Seeding Committee has done the legwork for you in preparing the brackets you see below. The final eight from each of the last eight tournaments have been paired ... and Bill Walton thrown in for giggles, as usual. If you had a job or a life in the past eight years, you can study up here.

     Now, it's your turn. You'll notice that next to each matchup is a pair of radio buttons. Simply click your favorite for each game and submit your list. Each week, the votes will be tallied, winners will advance, and you'll come back the following week to do it all again. As was the case last year, if you would like e-mail notification of the beginning of each new round, submit your email address here. GB.c will delete your email address after the tournament; you need not fear us signing you up for prescription medications, secrets of EBay success, or men or women in another country that really want to meet YOU!

     As you look at the bracket, you'll see lots of your old favorites ... and many of GB.c's favorite jokes will be retold here in the upcoming weeks as well. It's not laziness ... it's recycling!

     Can you vote more than once per week? Sure, selfish. If this nonsense gets you out of bed in the morning, by all means, jump on with both feet. We're happy to be your ray of sunshine.
