Sam and Bill are an absolutely unfair opponent for any of these matchups.

I fully expect them to mop up everyone in their region and make a run at the championship haha

While I am at least a cursory basketball fan (Go Vols), I am wildly more excited about this March Madness.

No Faramir and Éowyn, but the two trees get a spot? This is criminal!

haha, I know!! I didn't mention it, but as last year's champion, Éowyn gets a break this year. I did the same with Sam last year, and thought about keeping him on the sidelines this year as well...but how do you do 'Duos' without Sam and Frodo??

How am I supposed to pick between Beleg and Finrod....or Aragorn and Mahedros....or Earendil and Tom.....getting me in the feels over here!!😭😂

I was feeling this as I set the matchups...lol. But warning: it's only going to get more difficult from here!

I am glad that my views align with the majority.

I recently finished a year long read through of the Silmarillion (aided by the Prancing Pony Podcast https://theprancingponypodcast.com/2016/03/13/005-the-music-of-the-ainur/ ). I so appreciate the deep lore cuts! Beren and Lúthien vs Telperion and Laurelin! Gah! How to choose!
