So its the beginning of May, and sure I've neglected GOI and have stopped posting, but before the professional basketball season ends and now that I am done studying for the day, I think it's time to finally post the winner of the best Archer quote as voted on by you the fans.
And the winner is...
Drum roll please....
......
and just for funsies
......
LANA, THE HELIUM!
As of the writing of this post "Lana, The Helium" (the #2 overall seed) beat out "DANGER ZONE" (the #1 overall seed) by a vote of 7-5
Seeing as I am not in my apartment I can not post the bracket at this time, but that will come soon (cross your fingers) in part two.
Once I finish law school within a few weeks I hope to only post but do more wacky brackets and maybe do another version of my top TV characters dot dot dot

Round One of March Madness: Archer Quotes Edition
By a whooping three votes to one the quote "Obviously the core concept" by Sterling Archer beat out "So don't be surprised if you find yourself eating a whole bunch of spiderwebs" by Archer in the play-in game. This landslide victory makes sense considering the 'core concept' quote probably shouldn't have even been in the play-in game as evidenced by the fact that I have made the quote a 3 seed.
You can view the full bracket below (click to enlarge)
Sterling Archer by far and away leads this list with one liner quotes considering (A) he's the star of the show and (B) most of the funny stuff said by the other cast members are either not one liners or set ups to Archer's one liners.

March Madness: Archer Quotes Edition
March Madness and the NCAA basketball tournament is upon us, so of course it's time for some fake bracket stuff. Friend of the blog D.B. had a genius idea- to create a NCAA bracket style tournament full of Archer quotes. And considering Archer was the comedy that the Game Of Inches fans voted was the best comedy currently airing, why not do this.
I considered expanding this bracket to 32 quotes, and it's entirely possible to come up with 15 more quotes (and not have the play in game) but realistically voting on that many quotes is a huge freaking hassle. So D.B. and myself have limited the tournament to 17 quotes.
After hours of research, I have discovered a lot of funny dialogue and lines that are funny, but need a step up to them so sadly they were dismissed. This tournament is limited solely to one liners. (I included the set up to one of the "play-in games" below just to have the quote originally make more sense, but the Archer response is a funny line in and of itself).
If you do not watch Archer, please do not vote. And also go out and start watching Archer. For starters though, feel free to vote for the play-in game.
I have also posted the 16 team bracket. I won't make the bracket "official" until the play-in game has been decided. I'm still open to hearing argument about the ranking of quotes and which quotes should be left on or off. But keep in mind, I'm only using 15 more quotes and there are funny lines that I have left off; inevitably there will be funny lines not included in the bracket. Also, I am known for getting quotes wrong so if you have found that I have mangled a quote, please tell me before I make the bracket official.
