No Sweat!







It’s that time of year again – the Final Four!

What’s that you say? It’s July and the Final Four is in April. Well, you’re right, almost. I was referring to the Final Four of the Bill Cosby Sweater Tournament being contested on billcosby.com.

As I’m writing this the best two teams from each regional, The Argyles, The Cardigans, The Cashmeres and The Pullovers are doing battle. By the time you click this link you should see what will likely amount to be the most hotly contested Final Four in tourney history.


The favorite in this year’s tourney is the Pudding Man’s homage to track and field, a fine gray argyle with three identical sprinters (I can only guess inspired by Carl Lewis) in a race around the track. This sweater won its first round matchup against a dull, vertical striped argyle in an 85 to 15% blowout and then quickly dispensed of a black argyle with pink and turquoise footprints in the Sweat 16.Get the pun?


In the Fleecy Eight it’ll show down with a dark, colorful argyle swirl which is the most overrated sweater in the tourney. It only reached this point because Bill is making a very adorable face in the photo.


The Fleecy Eight matchup in the Cashmere regional should be hotly contested. But I’ve got my money on the upset special in this green goblin inspired Twilight Zone sweater.



The hot pick in the Cardigan Regional looks like something Rudy may have picked out for Fourth of July and a nice pick in the Pullover regional is a red, yellow and green sweater with hearts. It features a photo of Bill making his pudding face to Raven Symone.


Get in on the action. Vegas probably has odds!

CHALLENGE!
