Well the Round of 32 ended in a flurry of activity — polls didn’t close on time, leads changed hands at the last minute, we may have had people delete entire Twitter accounts, @HLS_hamster mistakenly took a vacation day and stopped powering the site server…

You know, typical #HLSrecapMadness.

As for me, the votes say I came up just short on Poot, but everyone knows nobody comes up short on Poot. It is with a heavy heart that I press on, although I’m out of the tournament.

About #HLSrecapMadness

Here’s the premise: we combine the best bits of #HLSrecap and March Madness for your enjoyment, ire, and maximum trolling. We start with a 64-slot bracket and populate it with the best tweets from 2013 Notre Dame Football games as seen in #HLSrecap. The Internet votes on who advances in each pairing until we’re left with a single winner…so inform all your family, friends, and enemies that digital glory hangs in the balance.

New for this year: I limited entries to one tweet per handle, with the exception of @oaknd1, last year’s #HLSrecapMadness Champion — he got 2 entries. If you finished in the #HLSrecap Top 25, you are guaranteed a spot; the rest are at-large bids. I solicited at-large bid nominations from the #NDtwitterati, and I selected some users myself. If I received multiple tweets authored by the same person, I reached out to the author to get his/her preferred choice for the field of 64.
