Voting Continues Below
Gordon Bombay (1) vs. Morris Buttermaker (3) Gordon Bombay rolls on. As the number one seed in the Young Guns, Bombay has had a pretty easy schedule so far. Let’s see how he holds up against Mick. Norman Dale (1) vs. Mickey Goldmill (2) Closest matchup by far. This was the first time in this bracket we had two elite coaches pitted against each other. We had to extend the voting period since it was tied for so long. It came down to the wire (50/50 all the way), but Mickey scraped by. Can he beat Gordon Bombay now? Eric Taylor (1) vs. Tony D’Amato (2) Eric Taylor won this matchup with surprising ease. Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose! Don’t worry, Tony D knows how to lose like a man. Eric Taylor now takes on Mr. Miyagi in what is sure to be a close matchup. Mr. Miyagi (1) vs. Lou Brown (3) Major League has somewhat of a cult following. Perhaps that was why this matchup was close for so long. In the final stretch, the better coach came out on top. Mr. Miyagi now faces Coach Eric Taylor.

Ever seen a duck fight? No way. Why? Because the other animals are afraid. They know that if they mess with one duck, they gotta deal with the whole flock. I’m proud to be a Duck, and I’d be proud to fly with any one of you. So how about it? Who’s a Duck?” -Gordon Bombay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CObJZf2YzDw You’re gonna eat lightnin’; you’re gonna crap thunder. -Mickey Goldmill [socialpoll id=”2234423″]
