8. My final four:

Sports Division: Barry Bonds

Entertainment Division: Octo-mom

Politics Division: Joe the Plumber in an overtime win over Sarah Palin

Business Division: AIG, although I really wish you would have made Jim Cramer number 8 so he could play AIG in the Elite Eight.

- - - - -

Final Four games: Octo-mom beats Barry Bonds and AIG stomps Joe the Plumber to set up a game for the ages

- - - - -

Douchebag Championship Game: Unfortunately, I keep hearing echoes of "Middle Park by seventy points" as I type, for AIG wins the 2009 National Douchebag Championship in a walk.
