hmm.. that's difficult. So many bad ones to choose from. I have a special place in hell reserved for Paypal and Comcast though, so hopefully they make it to the finals.

 

[purbeast0]

paypal should win hands down.

 

[IronWing]

No tobacco companies listed?
No big pharma?
No big health insurers?
No brewers/distillers?

Fail contest is chock full of rich fail.

 

[SithSolo1]

Charter or EA should win.

This. There's several companies that shouldn't be on the bracket at all.

Note though, I'm assuming 'Worst'(EA) and 'Stupid'(Netflix) are different things.

Final Four:
Paypal vs BOA - Winner: BOA
Comcast vs ATT - Winner: Comcast

Finals: BOA vs Comcast
Winner: BOA

Bank of America (BAC).

Most of their names aren't recognizable enough.

"Man I don't know who the fuck 'Philip Morris' is man but fuck Netflix for adjusting their prices in response to their content provider's increased perceived value of their contract!"

I wish there was a way to select a bracket and post it here.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

i disagree with the seeding. sony vs ea first round? both should have gone deep...

 

[The Boston Dangler]

my predictions:

boa, ticketmaster, gamestop, walmart, at&t, apple, comcast, ea win their 1st round

boa beats walmart and comcast beats at&t in the semi-finals

boa and comcast in the finals - there are no winners

paypal!!!!!!!!!!

although some of their brackets don't make sense. facebook vs sprint, wtf?

and i have no problem with either usps or ups.

No big oil either.

Between big oil and the financial sector you'd have a hard time lining them up so as to save bullets.

Monsanto not on there? Fail.

 

[Jaepheth]

This is the Consumerist; so I'm assuming to qualify a company has to service Joe Everyman.

Joe doesn't buy pills from Eli Lilly, he gets them from Wal-Mart or CVS.
He doesn't buy gasoline from BP, he goes to Shell/Chevron/etc.

 

[Krazy4Real]

I'll be voting. Thanks for the headsup.

Why do you have a problem with brewers or distillers?

 

[SamQuint]

my final 4

Chase and Paypal
Verizon and Best Buy

The final would be Chase vs Best Buy

Best Buy would win by a blowout.

EA would have made my final four if it were in a different bracket.

 

[busydude]

No monsanto.. not voting.

 

[KeithTalent]

My final four would be:

Ticketmaster vs. PayPal
Apple vs. EA

KT

I can't "Vote now!" as it doesn't start until tomorrow.

No one pointed that out yet? You guys are slacking.
