Deadspin SHOTY Tournament: Carl Monday Vs. Ricky Manning Jr.

We're off to the next first-round matchup, and this one seems likely to be more of a blowout than the potential upset brewing in the Roethlisberger-Mikulik matchup. (Polls are open, by the way, until all first round matchups are completed.)

Today, it's No. 2 seed Carl Monday, who has gained a bit of notoriety around here, taking on notorious technophobe Ricky Manning, Jr., cornerback for the Chicago Bears.

It's a No. 2 vs. No. 15 battle; will we have a Iowa State-Hampton? Let's dig so deep into the faceoff that we won't be able to tell which end is up.

No. 2 Seed: Carl Monday 2006 Highlights Blew the lid off a nationwide epidemic. Inspired one of the few amusing Dilbert parodies we've ever seen. Went after poor Mike Cooper one more time, just for good times' sake. Inspired his own minor league baseball promotion. Hit the big time of "The Daily Show." Became a popular Halloween costume.

No. 15 Seed: Ricky Manning Jr. 2006 Highlights Showed considerable displeasure with your computing technology.

So, go vote: Who advances to the Elite Eight?
