POD BOWL 0 CHAMPION:
Ardent Atheist With Emery Emery


Now, from the top...

Okay, so the final match of Pod Bowl 2011 just ended, but I'm going to consider it a trial run. Let's just call it "Pod Bowl 0".

The main bug of the format was that some of the favorites failed to post a weekly episode, so they got bounced. The best fix I can come up with is to make each round a best-of-3. So today we begin collecting episodes dated Sep 5-11 for the first third of the first round. The field will again be 32, and the whole tournament will take place over the next 15 weeks. (Why do I do this to myself?)
