The GIF Bracket: No. 1 ‘Overconfident Jeremy Shockey’ Vs. No. 4 ‘RG3’s Life Is Ridiculous’

After weeks of deliberation, we’ve almost finished whittling the original Field of 64 to the Elite Eight. Cast your vote, and help us determine the greatest animated sports GIF of all time.

NORTH REGION -- SWEET 16

(1) OVERCONFIDENT JEREMY SHOCKEY
vs.
(4) RG3’S LIFE IS RIDICULOUS

Before we get to the voting, here's some hard-hitting analysis of the Animated GIF Bracket from our own Matt Ufford and Dan Rubenstein:

(1) If you’ll recall, I am OVERCONFIDENT JEREMY SHOCKEY.

WOOOOOOO I WON THE GIF TOURNAMENT

(4) I am RG3’S LIFE IS RIDICULOUS.

I advanced to this round by virtue of a 201-114 win over ROB GRONKOWSKI SHOULD BE DEAD.

We’re really getting to the meat and potatoes of this tournament now. If I were to win the entire tournament, nobody should be terribly surprised. I am simultaneously amazing, hilarious, and likable, in a way that no other GIF really is.

God, I cannot wait to see what RG3 does in a Vikings uniform (the Redskins will draft Dave Ragone).

VOTE!
