Hell man, I spend a goodly amount of my day picturing it.

And dicking around on Fark...although Tumblr has made some serious inroads lately.

All those nights on the road, working the Chuckle Hut in Terre Haute and having the club owner try to pay you in blow? 11PM shows where the crowd was wall-to-wall hecklers? Banging waitresses that called you "Rowlf" at the moment of (feigned) truth? A bear gets a thick pelt with that kind of thing. You think some knife-throwing stereotype who's really from Piscataway is going to even get a clean shot in? You think some chicken-farker has the moves to get the drop on a bear who's had to fight his way through a crowd at a truck stop open mic in Mississippi after making a joke about Ronald Reagan's hair? You have fun with your little bracket. Fozzie don't give a fark.

It appears someone has leap-frogged the competition by disqualifying the CTW and the obvious winner, Grover.
I just hope no one gets croaked before this is over.

Gonzo getting matched up against Animal in Round 1 is completely unfair. Animal's the #1 seed in that bracket, #2 at worst depending on how you feel about Piggy. There's no way Gonzo is an #8 with Scooter and one of the Pigs in Space in there.

I mean we all know Animal is winning this going away, but at least put Gonzo in the top half of that bracket so he has a chance of making the semi-finals.

Sesame Street muppets don't count. Get that blue pain-in-the-ass outta here!

/Not convinced Kermit is a lock here. He's gotta get through Gonzo, Ms. Piggie and Fozzie.
//But I'd bet he'll be the finalist for the other bracket.
///They kinda screwed Animal, though. Not that he was gonna win.

DAMMIT Subby!!!

How can you wait until Gonzo (who is CLEARLY inferior to Animal) somehow gets internet voting rights to a bunch of chickens so that he can drum the one true champion out in a first round stunner that makes USA vs USSR in 1980 Olympic ice hockey look like USA vs USSR in 1972 Olympic basketball (the fix is most definitely in!).

Did you guys not actually click on stuff? Gonzo already beat Animal.

The "public" doesn't get to vote until the final 2, they have idiotic staffers picking them right now.

I missed the "public voting in the last round only" thing(LAME), but I saw the results.

Look, I'm sorry, everyone has their favorite Muppet and all that, but in the end, the ultimate, iconic, one-true-Muppet-to-rule-them-all, is Kermit, and face it, all of us know it.

Why? When I say, "Jim Henson", which Muppet is the first one you think of?

Kermit is literally the standard against which all the other Muppets are judged. So when you stop to consider which is the ultimate Muppet, and you start comparing them all one to another, remember that they all exist and revolve around Kermit. He is the center of the entire Muppet universe.

We're all missing the issue of a piggy vs. gonzo quarter-final.

I'm calling a swedish chef vs. piggy semi, with piggy getting to the final round.

Barbwiremike: Pepe got 0% of the vote? THE FIX IS IN!

I KNOW. Total horseshiat. I love the Swedish Chef as much as the next guy,
but compared to Pepe he's got no range. I bet even in the defense of
him the guy says "bork bork bork" because that's all he's got! (checks
defense paragraph... . yep. there it is. bork. Unbelievable! )

And let's just make sure Miss Piggy gets to round two by pairing her
against bit-player Julius Strangepork. I've always hated that coont.

Kermit vs. Robin. Oh come on. Now they're just trolling us.

Based on 60 and 80% winning.. my guess is there are either 5 or 10 people in their office voting on them. More lame.
