While voting for the Tomlinism Tournament Quarterfinals continues until Sunday at 11:00 p.m. Eastern, the Semifinals, to some extent, are starting to shape up.  The Semifinals will both be posted at the same time on Monday morning (early Eastern).  The pairings will be determined after Quarterfinal voting. The Semifinal polls will be open for all of Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday until 11:00 p.m. Eastern.  The Championship Match will be posted Thursday morning.  That poll will be open through the weekend and all day Monday.  On Tuesday morning (June 23) we will crown the Champion.

A furious battle is raging as the #1-Seed fights to come back against the pesky #12-Seed.  The polls are razor thin (50%-49%) and you can still vote.  The #1-Seed, "The more I understand Steeler Nation...," was given its lofty seed due to Mike Tomlin directly crediting us, Steeler Nation itself, for helping to motivate his drive to win. But the 12-Seed, featuring the large windshield and small rear-view mirror, seems to have taken the Nation by storm with its timely optimism.

The #3-Seed is holding serve over the #8-Seed.  Fans are appreciating the Tomlinator knowing that hunger and thirst can be quenched, and that success can never become complacent.  You can still vote for that Match as well.

the #6-Seed is surprisingly having an easy time over the #4-Seed.  This is a battle of two Tomlin originals, and the Nation seems to prefer his bark at a reporter for not understanding the chain of command, namely it is he who evaluates players and not the other way around.  The #4-Seed, subscribing to hocus pocus, has trailed the whole way, but there is still time to vote.

Finally, in the largest disparity to date, the #2-Seed is running 3-1 over the #10-Seed.  Fans not only love the thought of Lombardi Trophies trumping rushing titles, but there is also some love for the way Tomlin handled Fast Willie throughout that minor ordeal.  The 10-Seed, about under-promising and over-delivering, has pulled off one upset to date, but needs to rally to pull off an encore.  That vote is still open.
