90’s Sitcoms

Major sports are officially over for the season after the Cavaliers were crowned this week.  Sure there are  plenty of sports to bet on for that coveted action fix but once the NBA finals go dark the casual gambler usually turns his or her attentions towards summer vacation.

Football season gets here before we know, rest assured the apparently interminable window of non-gambling gets shorter by the year.  To help bridge that time I wanted to get everyone involved in a bracket that could spark serious debate.  Thanks to everyone on twitter for submitting their favorite 90 sitcoms to crowd source our seeding. Basically any show that aired a single episode during the decade was eligible for inclusion in our bracket.

I’m fully aware that these seedings have the makings of chalk talk with the top seeds on the Mount Rushmore of network television.  Regardless of the favorites there are a few other intriguing match-ups bound to prompt a swell of nostalgia.  All match-ups will be voted on using twitter’s polling tool with the opening round expected to wrap-up next Friday.  We’ll take time off for the holidays and then come back firing so keep on voting to push your favorite shows onto the next round. My goal is to post a match-up a day from now through the end of next week
