Welcome back to the Tournament to End All Tournaments! No surprises in the last match-up as Rodney Dangerfield made short work of Stuntman Mike. It was pretty much a given that Dangerfield would advance beyond the first round. Better luck on the draw next time, Mike.
Help me find out who the most awesome/badass character/person of all time is!
How would one accomplish such a task? Why by pitting every awesome and/or badass person/character/historical figure in a 512-person bracket style tournament that leaves only one person standing in the end. Who will it be? You will decide.
There is no voting criteria. You can vote for a participant based on whatever you please. If you feel that person would be the victor in a fist fight, or if you think they're more badass, more epic, have better hair, or if you just like one better than the other. It's completely up to you, the voter. I want people to have fun with this, and perhaps imagine the two participants squaring off face to face.
Today we have some more true blue flesh and blood as World famous Prohibition agent, Eliot Ness, takes on Captain Jack Sparrow of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise. Ness was famous for taking on Al Capone during Prohibition era America with his personal squad of "Untouchables", who were uncorrupt officers that went to war with Ness on the streets. His story gave inspiration to a film based on him and his "Untouchables", with Kevin Costner playing the lead role. Sparrow is the sole reason for the success of the Pirates franchise, being played by the beloved and charismatic Johnny Depp, he commands every scene he is a part of. He made pirates cool again. I can't say Costner made lawmen cool, but Ness doesn't need Costner's help being a badass.
