The reigning WCIA champ struts into the blood-stained octagon to defends its title against a bunch of geeks in blue shirts who fancy themselves as contenders to the Worst Company throne.

Comcast is always a favorite to go far in the tournament, but this year the Kabletown Krew cemented their Sweet 16 spot when they decided to beg their thousands of employees to vote for the other guy in the first round. Yeah… that didn’t quite work out for them.

Meanwhile, Best Buy, who beat up on RadioShack with a fist full of generic batteries in the first round, hopes to be the Butler University of this tournament. Of course, with fewer people shopping at BB this year, that probably means fewer customers pissed off enough to vote for them.

This poll is now closed. Congrats to Comcast!
