Tournament of Cool (nominations/history/general discussion)

[DennyMcLain]

So far, me thinks Steve McQueen is getting the most manlove.

But we fogot one man........



Sammy: "I'm black, AND I'm a Jew...with a glass eye!!! Only the supercool can pull THAT off."

[Big Swami]

Don't forget that he was a shrimp, too. So many ways to insult a guy, and it never would have occurred to anyone to do so, because he was such a badass.

[MoTown]

I might be the only one, but I think it would be best if we kept dead people out of it. The reason being, the dead outnumber the living, and out of world history, how do we limit the "dead region" to 16?

Because if we're including dead people, nothing says cool like Pippen the Younger, Erik the Red, Genghis Khan, Boris I of Bulgaria, William Wallace, Joan of Arc, Sun Tzu, King Xerxes and King Leonidas, and of course Tupac Shakur.

[Glenn]

I was going to mention Jesus, too.

The "dead bracket" isn't final, it was just an idea, but your concern is still cogent.

Nothing says "Cool" better than a car
and whats better than a cool car?....a Car that is alive!

Although that Lionel Richie vs. Sun Tzu matchup is pretty intriguing.

Anybody got the spread?

I took Jesus off at the last second. Didn't want Zip berating my stupidity.

I'm much more interested in Erik the Red vs. Justin Timberlake.

[Glenn]

I think even Zip would admit that HeyZeus was a cool cat.

[Big Swami]

Don't fuck with the Jesus!

[Timone]

Swami, you're out of your element.
