In Round 1, Octopi stormed the Granite M, winning 10-1.

Against my preference, Bricks beat out Tampa's pirate ship by one vote.

Another easy one.  I recognize the "reverence' of the bricks, but I'm still bitter about the pirate ship.  Octopi could win the whole thing.  It's so weird; it's so old.

Too bad, the bricks is a good one and probably should be a final 4 entry, but the Octopus is a powerhouse.

Bricks squeaked through the first round by one vote.

Octopi is for sure a final 4 deserving selection .. as is the Haka (my personal choice for overall champion)  kissing the bricks doesn't even beat out chugging milk after the indy 500 in a head-to-head

^^ just because it didn't vote well doesn't mean it isn't deserving.  My opinion.

I have a feeling that Haka is getting upset in this round.  Octopi could breeze through their bracket.  They have an easy draw.

F that .. the all blacks have been doing the haka before every game for over a hundred years .. there's newspaper clippings from 1902 talking about it .. they have official recognition from the maori tribe and the person leading it has to undergo training on how to properly perform one. if that doesn't spell out tradition i don't know what does.
