American Jesus Madness 2016 – 1st Round Results

Jesus is well on his way to becoming great again, but he’ll have to do so without the support of some of his most vocal embarrassments supporters.

Usually the 1st round is marked by a bunch of blowouts and a couple of close races, but this year, all kinds of match ups came down to the wire.

Oh, and for either the first time ever or at least one of the very few times I can remember, we had someone perfectly predict every 1st round matchup. Way to go Richard McNeeley!!
