Results: Final Four

 (3) Ralph 2551,  (4) Barney 1850

Even though Ralph's not allowed to go into the deep end of the sandbox, there's no slowing down his deep run into the Tournament. Is this day happier than when the doctor told him he didn't have worms anymore, or when he was told both his eyes were lazy? It certainly isn't for Barney. Up until now, the tourney had given him the inflated sense of self-esteem he previously found only with beer. After defeat, all that's left for the Plow King is to go get plowed.

Whitney Donaghy: Ralph makes Bovine University proud as he stands victorious on the killing floor over a prostrate Barney. Although its not really a floor...it's more of a steel grate that allows Barney's entrails to sluice through. Ya hear that Monty? It's the sound of a wee leprechaun saying BURN THEM ALL!

Jeff Berman : How could you not vote for Barney here? A man who can steal a jet pack, crash land on the roof of a pillow factory and then be run over by a marshmallow truck while bingeing on non-alcoholic champagne!! That's a true survivor. As for Ralph -- well, let's just say his cat's breath smells like cat food and leave it at that.

Brad Gaucher: The Plow King meets his match against Ralph. Ralph was able to crush an entire wookie -- what chance does Barney have? Punching out Wade Boggs is not exactly intimidating.

Frank LaRosa: Call me a Big Baby, but I can't stand to see Barney lose to Ralph. Barney, Homer's oldest friend? At once his partner in Barbershop and his arch-nemesis in the snowplow business? Losing to Ralph Wiggum, this nobody, this throwaway sub-Millhouse schoolyard extra? I mourned the day Apu was defeated, but at least he lost to a worthy opponent. To see Barney fall to a paste-eating kid who's done little more than dream about being a Viking and mistake Miss Hover for his mother... it's not just a disaster, it is, I am convinced, a conspiracy aimed at making a mockery of this election.

 (1) Montgomery Burns 2339,  (2) Moe Szyslak 1977

Monty can't figure it out. Here he is, the undisputed favorite to win the tournament and yet there are still thousands of people voting against him. Yet if he were to have those slack-jawed troglodytes killed, he'd be the one to go to jail. That's democracy for you. He'll have to be content to march into the Final wearing his grizzly-bear underwear and a vest made from real gorilla chest. Besides, Moe's got better places to be. He's got a hot date tonight. OK, just a date. OK, Dinner with friends...Dinner alone...Watching TV alone. All right! He's going to sit at home and ogle the ladies in the Victoria's Secret catalog....make that the Sears catalog.

CH Nager: So what if Moe stole the idea for the Flaming Homer? When it comes to blatant and utter disregard for others, Monty makes Moe melt. Who else would wear a living brain on his head and declare, "Look at me! I'm Davy Crockett!"?

Phil Cisco: There is no doubt that Burns would mop the floor with Kid Presentable's pug-ugly face. What other man could continuously laugh for hour upon hour thinking about how he had crippled an Irishman? I just hope Monty doesn't go soft on Uncle Moe by mistaking him for a standing Rory Calhoun.

John Lee: Well, Mr. Burns, you've certainly vanquished all your enemies: the Elementary School, the local tavern, the old age home...you must be very proud. Ned Flanders was right: Moe is an ugly, hate-filled man. But Mr. Burns in the man who blocked out our sun, ran over a local boy and stole Christmas from 1981 to 1985! Is there no way to stop this black-hearted scoundrel? Can't someone punch Burns right in his 104-year-old face? Or at least write a polite but firm letter to Mr. Burns' underlings, who with some cajoling, could pass it along to him or at least give him the gist of it?

Ryan Nicholas: Anyone who audibles with '23 skidoo' is the greatest team leader in football history. I vote Burns.
