Miscellaneous Region, second round
Oh boy, it's time for the second round of the Miscellaneous Region... Who's gonna make it this time? Let's find out!
#1 Achilles 77, #8 Miley Cyrus 71. Sorry Hannah Montana fans (myself included), but Achilles takes this one. He's immortal, except for his heel. Miley seems to be invincible, except for her studio voice modulation technology.
#7 Crocodile Dundee 83, #2 Wilt Chamberlain 81. Oooh, an upset! Wilt, I think, was a pretty one dimensional guy. He played basketball really well... Actually, I guess he had another pretty good talent. But Mick Dundee is a man on a mission. If I was trapped in the jungle, I'd want Dundee with me. If I was involved in a life-or-death basketball game, then I guess I'd want Wilt.
#3 Keith Richards 73, #11 Babe the Pig 63. Keef is a little too powerful for our erstwhile pig. You can't kill Keith Richards. He's invincible. Keith Richards could probably eat 50 Babe the Pigs and all the cholesterol wouldn't kill him. Incredible.
#4 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 89, #12 Young Einstein 78. Kareem fares a little better than Wilt. I liked Young Einstein and all, but Kareem dominated the basketball world. Inventing rock n roll is all well and good, but damn if that wasn't made up. Sorry, Yahoo Serious.
So, our Swell Sixteen matchups look like this:
#1 Achilles v. #4 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
#3 Keith Richards v. #7 Crocodile Dundee
entry no. 1115
