RBC V

Voting in Williamson Pod starts Sunday

Voting starts Sunday in the Brandon Williamson Pod in Random Bracket Challenge V. Through Tuesday you’ll be able to vote on each of the four first-round matchups.

Right now, voting is underway in the Wade Wacker Pod and it continues into Sunday evening.

The plan is to begin voting in the Garland Buckeye Pod on Monday as we get back on schedule.

Voting takes place on X (formerly known as Twitter). Follow me @sportsdr44.

(1) Glinda the Good vs. (8) Public Speaking

Glinda the Good is a fictional character created by L. Frank Baum for his Oz novels, and is the most powerful sorceress in the Land of Oz. She is ruler of the Quadling Country South of the Emerald City, and protector of Princess Ozma.

Public speaking is the art of conveying information or ideas orally to an audience, encompassing various purposes like informing, motivating, or persuading. It involves a speaker and an audience and can occur in both formal and informal settings.

(4) Palm Sunday vs. (5) That Drunk Girl Meme

Palm Sunday is the Christian moveable feast that falls on the Sunday before Easter. It marks the first day of Holy Week and the beginning of the last week of the season of Lent.

That Drunk Girl Meme is a meme of a girl who is drunk girlsplaining to a guy who looks anxious to get away from her.

(2) Drinking From a Hose vs. (10) Cleaning the Fridge

For those of a certain age, taking a drink of water from a garden hose might be a fond childhood memory. But in reality, most outdoor faucets and garden hoses, especially those made prior to 2014, are not meant to be used for drinking water.

Cleaning the fridge means removing old or spoiled food, wiping down the shelves and drawers, and ensuring the inside of the refrigerator is clean and free of spills and odors.

(3) Lunchables vs. (6) Parallel Parking

Lunchables is an American brand of food and snacks. Working mothers, especially, were pressed by the time constraints of fixing breakfast for their families as well as packing lunch for their children to eat at school. Crackers were substituted for bread because they would last longer in grocery coolers.

Parallel parking usually requires initially driving slightly past the parking space, parallel to the parked vehicle in front of that space, keeping a safe distance, then followed by reversing into that space. Subsequent position adjustment may require the use of forward and reverse gears.
