BC March Madness 2025 - Day 16
Added 2025-03-16 18:00:09 +0000 UTCAnother close one - Santa wins by a reindeer!
Up today in our final matchup of the first round, we've got Drafters vs. Violators.
It's Kevin Costner Sports Movies vs 90s Indie Comics.

I think this is the first time in human history that the above images were paired together.
With Costner Sports, we'd cover four movies that showcase our guy Kev in his element - being a hot jock:
Bull Durham
Field of Dreams
Tin Cup
Draft Day, starring Griffin Newman
(We would not cover For Love of the Game again because we don't have to)
With 90s Indie Comics, we'd cover six of the scumbummiest 90s movies featuring all of Ben's favorite weird guys:
The Mask
The Crow
Tank Girl
Judge Dredd
Spawn
Dredd (which came out in 2012 but David wants to cover it anyway)
So - who is the final contestant to move on to the Sweet Sixteen?
Comments
Knowing that Dredd 2012 will be included makes this a lock for my favorite to win the bracket.

2025-03-17 22:40:38 +0000 UTCCostner sports is a great category. Please bring it back
Will Lipsenthal
2025-03-17 18:04:36 +0000 UTCSeems like the bad movies are on the other side, imo
Anthony Regina
2025-03-17 17:25:16 +0000 UTCAlways will vote for more Benducer content! Give me a month of porch classics!
Corby Weyhmiller
2025-03-17 16:57:41 +0000 UTCBye bye griff
Ian Joshua Postman
2025-03-17 16:39:25 +0000 UTCWe know that’s why we want them
Chloe Jade Skye
2025-03-17 16:25:48 +0000 UTCThey should run it back on Griff’s turf
Snoogens
2025-03-17 16:19:49 +0000 UTCShocked Costner isn’t winning. The movies are definitely better. But I’m voting out of pure desire to hear Ben talk more about Violator
Ballytotalfit
2025-03-17 16:16:01 +0000 UTCTin cup!!! David Simms+
Sloane
2025-03-17 15:24:30 +0000 UTCKevin please come on you guys those are bad movies on the other side
Sloane
2025-03-17 15:24:20 +0000 UTCContender for my favorite Costner sports with Tin Cup
Andrew Wyslotsky
2025-03-17 15:21:01 +0000 UTCI have 0 doubt that Ben dresses as Violator for the Spawn ep if it wins.
Andrew Wyslotsky
2025-03-17 15:20:19 +0000 UTCYeah this is a strange choice
Daniel Citron
2025-03-17 15:16:56 +0000 UTCIt’s truly strange that they got Leguizamo to play the clown after Danny Devito passed
Daniel Citron
2025-03-17 15:16:22 +0000 UTCIt kind of kills me, but I have to go with my heart, and my heart is with Tank Girl.
Kerry Benton
2025-03-17 14:58:33 +0000 UTCNo 'McFarland, USA' on the Costner sports list? Shame shame
Alexander Staudinger
2025-03-17 14:46:50 +0000 UTCI want to go with Costner Sports, because I want a full episode on Draft Day. And an excuse to watch Tin Cup again. But I think this vote was sealed with "scumbummiest."
Kyle Martinak
2025-03-17 14:22:55 +0000 UTCthis one was brutally hard but had to go kevin ... which surprises the comic nerd core in me. But i wanna hear the boys talk Bull Durham and tin cup!
Soup
2025-03-17 14:10:41 +0000 UTCSorry. But this one is pretty obvious...
Jordan Bushert
2025-03-17 13:19:18 +0000 UTCAlso not an independent comic. It was a newspaper strip
Daniel Davis
2025-03-17 12:32:01 +0000 UTCWorks better with the 90's Pulp Superhero movies with Dick Tracey, The Shadow etc
Scott Gerrard
2025-03-17 11:20:35 +0000 UTCIn case of emergency: Flagrant Ones did a whole ep on Draft Day with Griffin as a guest.
Will McLaren
2025-03-17 06:09:16 +0000 UTCFor those who want to hear Griffin tell lots of Draft Day stories, check out the ep he did on The Flagrant Ones, they did a whole episode dedicated to the movie.
Will McLaren
2025-03-17 05:57:28 +0000 UTCNo The Phantom?!
Brandon Rust
2025-03-17 05:44:51 +0000 UTCCostner’d out, thanks
Jack R
2025-03-17 03:53:30 +0000 UTCNo The Art of Racing in the Rain for Costner?
costcohotdog
2025-03-17 03:41:03 +0000 UTCHow the heck is Costner sports not dominating?! Draft Day, baybeeeee
IMDB
2025-03-17 03:38:16 +0000 UTCoh god I hope 90s comics goes all the way
JC9000
2025-03-17 03:02:08 +0000 UTC90’s forever
Josh Harvey
2025-03-17 02:36:28 +0000 UTCAnd it would be TWO months!!
Chloe Jade Skye
2025-03-16 23:52:20 +0000 UTCCome on guys, Tin Cup!
Donald W Pratt
2025-03-16 22:53:13 +0000 UTC90s comics is my juggernaut this year. i can’t see any of them beating it for me.
Liam
2025-03-16 22:50:50 +0000 UTCIf that was on the list, I would’ve chose comic book movies.
Good
2025-03-16 22:02:52 +0000 UTCTRUE 🤣 but we need more.
Good
2025-03-16 22:02:12 +0000 UTCDraft day=honorary indie comic

2025-03-16 21:53:32 +0000 UTCMCFARLAND, USA is such an interesting Cosner sports movie!!!
DannyDelBoy
2025-03-16 21:51:56 +0000 UTClol poor Griffin
Nate
2025-03-16 21:50:00 +0000 UTCPlease add McFarland USA to the Costner lineup!!!
Danny
2025-03-16 21:43:18 +0000 UTCCan we add Draft Day to 90’s Indies Comics?
Nicholas Keith
2025-03-16 21:22:31 +0000 UTCI want both of these series.
Casey Callahan
2025-03-16 21:18:02 +0000 UTCDoes 90s indie comics mean we'd never get a THE CROW Patreon series? Because that series is worth covering.
Richard Barry
2025-03-16 21:12:33 +0000 UTCFeels bad to vote against a Griff movie, but I simply can't take another full month of Costner.
Charlie Wetherington
2025-03-16 21:04:55 +0000 UTCThis 90s group is strong. Some really fun movies. A bad one with a hundred actor tangents. Comedy and action. Ben choices and a requested addition from David.
Brian Redford
2025-03-16 20:53:20 +0000 UTCTragically it appears nerds rule, jocks drool
Graeme Campbell
2025-03-16 20:42:54 +0000 UTCI would really love a Bull Durham episode one day, that’s ideal for the show as I’m sure the fellas are well aware. I like to think that Costner Sports might have done a little better against a less straight-down-the-middle-for-Blankies opponent, if anything this is a better performance than I thought was possible against 90s indie comics
Rad Rodge
2025-03-16 20:35:06 +0000 UTCSon, I am disappoint. ("Son" = "Blankies")
Paul Sabourin
2025-03-16 20:31:38 +0000 UTCThis was a tough one.
Joel Gross
2025-03-16 20:14:04 +0000 UTCCome on, Draft Day is on the board
Trevor Mason
2025-03-16 20:13:34 +0000 UTCThis is criminal
Betty Vaughan Granberg
2025-03-16 20:12:18 +0000 UTCAs much as I want them to cover draft day… the 90’s comics is such a good list
Chad Hemphill
2025-03-16 20:06:45 +0000 UTCCome on people, James Earl Jones monologuing about baseball!
Charles
2025-03-16 20:04:12 +0000 UTCI’m voting for 90s comics, but I do want a draft day commentary one day
mikey GOLDSMITH
2025-03-16 19:57:09 +0000 UTCTank Girl just for the soundtrack
Harry Blackwood
2025-03-16 19:55:58 +0000 UTCAs much as I'd love to make Griffin cover himself, Spawn rules
Adam Foote
2025-03-16 19:41:29 +0000 UTCSeconded!
KevynOnVideo
2025-03-16 19:40:14 +0000 UTCCannot believe my love of Griffin Newman is such that I just voted for not only Kevin Costner but sports. Woof. On the main though it’s looking good for DEAD ALIVE 😃😃😃the greatest

2025-03-16 19:29:24 +0000 UTCPetition to add Mystery Men to the 90s comics series.
Andrew
2025-03-16 19:27:22 +0000 UTCguys, gals, and non binary pals how are we passing over listening to them cover a movie Griffen is in?
Matt Miller
2025-03-16 19:14:43 +0000 UTCTHE COFFEE WAS DROPPED... But Dredd is where my heart lies
Brendan Radigan
2025-03-16 19:13:53 +0000 UTCField of Dreams is great, but so much so that I feel it’s more main feed than commentary material.
Njord
2025-03-16 19:13:44 +0000 UTC90s Comics is pure, uncut Benergy. I'm in.
Beardmask
2025-03-16 19:07:32 +0000 UTCNot enough to sit through Costner baseball & golf movie commentaries
Adam Grzegorczyk
2025-03-16 19:06:14 +0000 UTCAs much as I want a Draft Day ep the other sports movies don't do much for me. A Tank Girl ep on the other hand...
J Em
2025-03-16 19:04:59 +0000 UTCbut tin cup is better than i expected even though it’s about golf?
d p fenn
2025-03-16 19:03:03 +0000 UTCVictims aren’t we all?
Bonesaw Greene
2025-03-16 19:00:29 +0000 UTCThey should just do a one-off Draft Day commentary honestly, because I do not care about costner or baseball
Josh
2025-03-16 18:53:37 +0000 UTCSports is not going to make up its deficit, but it’s definitely the one on the bracket I’m most excited by
Rob Dennis
2025-03-16 18:52:34 +0000 UTC❤️ 90s indie comic movies 🥵. I would love to see this group go all the way! 🤞
Carolyn
2025-03-16 18:49:50 +0000 UTCDo people really not want to watch along with griffin watching draft day? Wtf are we doing here people?
Susan Hill
2025-03-16 18:47:02 +0000 UTCSurely—surely!—there’s been enough Costner talk already.
DJV
2025-03-16 18:46:27 +0000 UTCThis is by far the toughest decision this whole month for me.
Sean C.
2025-03-16 18:44:53 +0000 UTCAt first it felt like a tough call, but I'm holding out hope for Ron Shelton and Phil Alden Robinson to have their own miniseries. White Pods Can't Cast and The Sum of All Podcasts
Pat Johnson
2025-03-16 18:42:12 +0000 UTCThis might be the category I follow all the way. 90s indie comics must be the victor
Michael Birdsall
2025-03-16 18:38:44 +0000 UTCNo mystery men?
Chauncey Telese
2025-03-16 18:38:22 +0000 UTCI want them to cover Draft Day sometime, but not enough to have to lose the Patreon feed to a series of crappy American sports movies. It's not worth it
Literaltruth
2025-03-16 18:34:21 +0000 UTCI just need to share that I rejoined the patreon exclusively in order to vote for Lemmon and Matthau and I am now a grumpy old man.
HappyCroc
2025-03-16 18:34:16 +0000 UTCI just want to make sure everyone knows that coffee spill didn’t make the final cut
Jake Vogt
2025-03-16 18:27:18 +0000 UTCDredd 2012 is a perfect movie would love to hear you cover it
Stuart Roth
2025-03-16 18:27:15 +0000 UTCBull Durham and Field of Dreams are incredible. Tim Cup is very fun. I haven’t seen Draft Day, but dissecting a big Griffin film would be super interesting. Indie Comics is long and wacky, varying degrees of quality. I say Costner!
Michael Curley
2025-03-16 18:26:48 +0000 UTCWhat about Draft Day 2 where they reveal what happened to the carpet after all the coffee that got spilled
Flappy McGillicuddy-Jones III
2025-03-16 18:26:15 +0000 UTCDo you guys not want them to cover Draft Day? I don’t understand
Chris
2025-03-16 18:26:00 +0000 UTCyeeeeeeeaaaaaaaah Dredd (2012) bonus ep
Elizabeth Edwards
2025-03-16 18:25:50 +0000 UTCVoting for Tank Girl. And because I don’t know or care about Costner or sports.
Anthony Regina
2025-03-16 18:20:47 +0000 UTCIf you want to piss my wife off, just say “Spawn.” We lived in NYC when that came out and it was the first time we spent over $10 per ticket to see a movie. That movie was the worst piece of shit we’d wasted our very little money on.
Jeremiah Drueke
2025-03-16 18:15:21 +0000 UTCGreat point
Zachary Marriott
2025-03-16 18:15:00 +0000 UTCVoting indie comics, love the line up but you guys gotta have Mystery Men on there
Zak Goldberger
2025-03-16 18:13:42 +0000 UTC90s indie comics would be a fun exercise that centers on a theme I’d love to hear dissected more—“can Hollywood capture the peculiar zeitgeist of indie comics through the studio system” I’m less intrigued by the common theme of—“can a monotone and stone faced actor convincingly portray more than two or three emotions?”
John Halski
2025-03-16 18:13:21 +0000 UTCI would like to do the Costner sports movies at some stage, good Sepinwall-adjacent series and the opportunity to cover a Griff movie appearance But that indie comics list looks VERY strong, especially with 2012 Dredd there. Might have a shot of going all the way, like board games last year?
Jon Ryves
2025-03-16 18:12:00 +0000 UTCrelease the coffee spill cut
Haley
2025-03-16 18:10:46 +0000 UTCVoting for Jock Kostner because I have to be true to myself, but I hope the scum bums win
John O'Neill
2025-03-16 18:08:25 +0000 UTCI'd say they trend more dork than scumbag
Roslyn
2025-03-16 18:08:20 +0000 UTCI need the draft day commentary
Zach
2025-03-16 18:07:13 +0000 UTCInsane that Costner isn’t winning in a landslide!!
Dan Fiorentine
2025-03-16 18:07:11 +0000 UTCI might have went with The Coz until you described the other one as “Scumbummiest”. Let’s get scummy, baby!!!
May
2025-03-16 18:06:16 +0000 UTCIf they had left in the coffee spill, I’m Costner all day. But they didn’t. What a waste.
FatDogDad
2025-03-16 18:05:56 +0000 UTCSCUM! BUM! SCUM! BUM!
Brit Mullen
2025-03-16 18:05:33 +0000 UTCTeam weird guys plus tank girl. Jersey pride!
big red robot
2025-03-16 18:05:10 +0000 UTCYou know what I’m going Costner! Let’s give super hero talk a break.
Good
2025-03-16 18:04:47 +0000 UTCHow do you not include Mystery Men?!
Lena Delaney
2025-03-16 18:04:40 +0000 UTCCostner sports gets my vote because David sounded so excited over 90s comics in the last MM update ep that it feels inevitable anyway
Anthony Pierre Coco
2025-03-16 18:03:51 +0000 UTCBut what if it’s Draft Day with Carl and The Boys?
Snoogens
2025-03-16 18:03:50 +0000 UTCBulk Durham for David, Draft Day for Griffin, and Field of Dreams to get Ben crying about something sappy. This would be a great addition to our decade of dreams
Anthony Oleszkiewicz
2025-03-16 18:03:36 +0000 UTCGIMME DAT SCUM
sheabobay
2025-03-16 18:03:17 +0000 UTCOh, now this is a tough choice. The Costner films are all classics and the Leo pointing at the screen moment of Draft Day would be incredible. But… the Mask???? Sssssmokin and Ben in the same episode???
Jon Arnold
2025-03-16 18:03:10 +0000 UTCLike I'm voting for anything except Spawn
Mr Sir
2025-03-16 18:02:45 +0000 UTCWe owe this to Ben
