Gents – Not a problem at all, I was actually planning to do just that. Once the the Round One voting match-ups are completed on Saturday, I plan on updating the entire bracket to reflect the Round One voting.

love the bracket, wanted to ask a favor. i know it might be a bit of work, but could you update the entire bracket after each round of voting? i think it would ramp up excitement, and it’s great to get a total visual of the tournament. thanks again for the awesome blog!

When saying “crab” out loud, there’s almost a 95% chance that someone overhears you and thinks of venereal disease.

I’ll opt for salmon, thanks.

I’m glad to see that mussels are taking a beating right now. Scallops shouldn’t even need to be that great (they are), to win that matchup.

Between the texture and those beards, mussels are NOT GOOD.

You people are sick. Do you know how versatile salmon is? It’s like sea bacon. Go back in your holes you crazy fools.

an upset in the making!
In my book crab should be the #1 seed…give me a bushel of maryland crabs with old bay over the same tired salmon any day. OK, now that I’ve said that crab vs. scallop is gonna be a really hard one.

Here’s the thing about salmon versus crab…

Salmon has the potential to be great IF it’s prepared well, with a tasty marinade or garnish. But crab, if it’s fresh, is AWESOME just by virtue of its own crabby flavor. If it’s fresh crab, it’s most delicious eaten right out of the shell with nothing on it (or a little butter sauce if anything). I think that means something. Crab is inherently delicious – delicious by its own virtues, not by the efforts of chefs.
VOTE CRAB!
