Oh god this one is hard

sorry rich, blackdragon 4 life

You put Green against Gallup? You mother effer.

RICHARD K GALLUP FOR LIFE

if Jeff Green doesn't win I will cut a guy

The way the brackets were set up, Brad Muir pretty much has a cake walk to the semi-finals, maybe even the final. Rich Gallup versus Dad. That's a hard one.

Muir is a shoe-in for the Final Four.

Muir/Gallup are the new Batman and Robin.

That was really hard to decide, but Jeff Green has been a bigger part of Giant Bomb in my opinion. Also Brad Muir.

I have to go with Brad and Rich. Tough set today!

Brad and Jeff all the way. This one was tough choice between Jeff and Rich!

Brad, Brad, he's our man! If he can't do it our other Brad can!

My vote goes for Brad Muir and Jeff Green.

Brad Muir has to win, no matter what.

@Winternet: I request that you amend Jeff Green's profile stats to include his Mad Lib prowess.

@Demoskinos: no way, this:

I went with Brad and Rich, but I have absolutely no problem if Jeff wins.

Sorry, Dave Lang! I guess you're shit out of luck on this one! I actually really like Dave, but Brad Muir could move in at Giant Bomb and I'd be okay.

Brad/Rich.

I was just thinking the same thing, but with Jeff and Rich switched around.

Brad and Rich, mainly because Rich is about to lose his job so maybe winning the Golden Duder will be a nice consolation?

The OP had unstated criteria for the initial match-ups. In a serious event, with no round robin, a straight knockout should really be random or random within given seeded brackets.

I call teh bias :D

@alternate: There was seeding. I seeded 8 duders.

Muir and Gallup all the way.

Man, Green vs. Gallup is so difficult to decide! Muir is my final choice for any match-up, so I guess I've to go with Muir & Gallup.

My nostalgia for the good old days of GS has swayed me into voting for Rich.Though I also love Jeff Green, Rich is more important to GB.

Muir and Gallup! Muir because he is Brad Muir and makes every piece of GB content he is featured in so much more jolly, and Rich Gallup because I was more attached to him as a fan than I was Jeff, Ryan or Alex in the Gamespot days. I was absolutely gutted when he left Gamespot, and I'm not ashamed to admit that his last episode of On The Spot made me cry.

NEEDS ALL THE MOO EAR

These tables have been so badly laid out.

Learn from any major sporting competition and separate the best.

@SuperSambo: I have done that.

Brad and Rich, easiest choice ever.

YOU ASSHOLES! THIS IS PATRICIDE!

VOTE GREEN! VOTE DAD! LEST THE CUDGEL OF XANTHOR STRIKE YOU DOWN!

THE TRUE LORD OF THE RINGS!

EDITED: No point in comment, just in a bad mood.

Carry on the great work.

Why the fuck is Jeff Green losing. This is some bullshit.

Oh dear Lord, choosing between Jeff Green and Rich Gallup ..... ...... ahhhhh.

I felt I was leaning towards Rich Gallup for all that he was at Gamespot and yet that Jeff Green had seemed to make more of an impression during the time at Giant Bomb, but by looking at the hard facts Rich has probably been on things as much as Jeff so I'm going to let Rich win this. I do love me some Jeff Green though and feel he slots really well in with the GB crew. Super tough one.

Muir and Gallup.

I'm predicting Muir will win the Golden Duder.

Ouch, this one is actually difficult.

Rich vs Jeff? Shit.

No one wants to enter the Lang Zone...

I gotta pick Green over Gallup. Age beats beauty. I think it comes down to Jeff being more active and memorable in the recent years than Rich. Plus he's not afraid to curse on air. If only they were still making episodes of Button Mashing.
 
And I really don't know who Dave Lang is, so Brad Moo-ear wins as well.

Gotta go Jeff Green.

No matter who wins between Jeff and Rich, both of them golden duders.

I chose The Hostmaster, sorry Dad.

This. Green edges out Gallup for me though. I love me some Rich, but the love is mostly based on things from the GameSpot days so I don't think it's fair to give him too much credit for those.

PS: I wonder if the release of the Time Trotters video is affecting the voting in Rich's favour?

Muir and Gallup.

Brad and Jeff. Muir and Green that is.

Jeff Green with either one.

Jeff is NOT a billionaire...he's fly, pimping, hybrid friendly billionaire...

Jeff Green is a KING AMONG MEN.

I hope I am cool enough to ride a motorcycle to work at 50+.

Voted for Jeff Green, because Jeff Green.

Vote Jeff and Brad. They ship games.
