Earlier this week Grantland released a bracket that put wire characters against each other. The bracket:
My thoughts: (don't click the links if you haven't seen the show, there will be spoilers)
- The biggest issue here: No Slim Charles. One of my favorite characters in the whole show, he's responsible for some of the most memorable quotes/scenes as well. "We fight on that lie" "murder ain't no thing, but this here is some assassination shit", "The game the same, it just got more fierce", scene with omar and the most satisfying moment in the history of the show come to mind.
- The East Baltimore region is too loaded. Stringer, Bodie, Marlo, Lester, Kima in one region? I could see any of them in my final four, especially Stringer, Bodie and Marlo. Marlo should be a 1 seed, no question.
- I love Bunk... but how is he a 1 seed and McNulty a 3 seed? And how is Bubbles a 7 seed? Madness.
Do you all see any major snubs/mismatches?
my favorite scene's still this one from the pilot. hooked on this show from the first episode.

RE-ELECT SZBOTKA!!
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm really into Stringer Bell and Kima. I don't really understand how this is going to work thus my reluctance to participate in anything with brackets except Jezebel's dessert playoffs every year. But Stringer Bell and Kima are seriously hot.
