How's this gonna work if say Jaffe and Vignocchi win? If you took the votes for Vignocchi and Sessler and Varanini and Sessler, then maybe Sessler beats out Jaffe and the actual winners should bee Sessler and Jaffe, but the poll won't reflect that. Not sure if that makes sense but basically you would need two separate polls to get the true winners right?

@ADAMWD: It's a tournament. Johnny is only going against Giancarlo and Jaffe is only going against Sessler. Check the main thread for a better understanding.

Jaffe and Johnny is the true dream team. Both of them are loud, hilarious, and surprisingly insightful.

Vignocchi/Sessler all the way... although I have nothing against Varanini. 
 
As for Jaffe, he can eat, sleep, and play a dick.

I have no idea what you're talking about with Adam Sessler's hat. I watched him back when he had a full head of hair.

Also, I wanted Adam Sessler and David Jaffe to both go on to the finals.

I feel that Brad Muir should have been part of the discussion. He's the true duder of duders.

@AndrewB: the GB crew had Adam Sessler's hat for what seemed a year and they mentioned it on the bombcast and such multiple times.

@joshthebear: This is just two matches in a 32-player tournament. Brad Muir is definitely in the tournament. Check it here.
