What Should Be The Next Madness Bracket?

Within a week, I would like to set up the next poll to determine the next madness theme.

These are my top 3 picks right now

Celebrities (two separate brackets men and women)
Directors
Food

Does anybody else have a theme you would like to see? Please no music suggestions, we can do some music theme sometimes next year.

We will do an NFL Madness, will probably do it in December since it will take a couple of weeks to complete.
 
I was thinking during the night and since the NFL season just started. I believe it would be more fun to start that one now.

Sometime in mid-October, the next major madness tournament can start. Plus we should have a better idea for a theme. That way it will be completed before Thanksgiving and give all of us a major break during the holiday season.

When I get to work this morning, I'll create a spreadsheet to determine the ranking order for the NFL teams. So everything should be ready in a couple of hours.

The NFL madness yes. We just need to vote to rank order and there only like 4 rounds. Which should complete everything by end of the month.

Why you won't be around for the last madness before the holiday break?

You were saying you were going to be all done by thanksgiving which is why I was asking.

Yea I believe we will have both madness done before Thanksgiving. It usually takes a month to complete one.

The NFL is a 32 bracket and whatever the last theme will be could possible be a 128 bracket?
 
After the NFL Madness we will take a couple of weeks off and will get started on the next major madness.

Does anybody have a theme you would like to see? Besides what I suggested earlier.

Celebrities (two separate brackets men and women)
Directors
Food
 
I'm thinking of going with the theme of people. But what type of category is up to you guys.

Actors/Actress (64, 128 or 256 - two separate brackets men and women or mix match)
Celebrities (64, 128 or 256 - two separate brackets men and women or mix match)
Dictators (32 or 64 bracket)
Directors (32 or 64 bracket)
Politicians (64 or 128 bracket)
Presidents & Vice Presidents (64 bracket - use the voting poll and eliminate some Presidents and Vice Presidents)
Sports Athletics (64, 128 or 256 bracket)

I can't think of any other categories dealing with people.
 
With Ultimate Madness winding down, I'm already thinking of the next bracket for March or beyond. We could either go with a simple theme or go big again? I'm thinking of three themes already.

Food
(64 or 128 bracket = any types of food or break it down by food categories)

United States / Canadian Provinces & Territories
(64 bracket = 50 states, include either D.C. or Puerto Rico and 13 provinces and territories of Canada)

We have done Artists/Bands, Albums how about Songs?
(I'm thinking we can go by a certain decade or have some decades go at each other like the 70's vs. 80's.)

Sports
(We already did the NFL, we could either go with the MLB, NBA, NHL or NCAA)
 
As mention in ATW 398, I'm thinking of having an SNL theme. We could either do cast members, characters or both?
 
When Februrary is almost over, I post a poll and see what theme should be next.
 
Ok, I have an idea for a very short madness. One or 2 things each of us love. So for me it would be Disney, Wolf it would be soccer, meme it would be movies, Idrather it would be syrup...and so on. It would only be about 20 or so total items in the bracket.

Last year we did a NFL Madness which took one of the months, but only lasted like 2 weeks. I could introduce a mini madness into one of the off months. But having a madness game every other month is starting to work out and not burning people out.
 
Sorry if I keep changing things around, but these are the Madness themes I feel would be the most popular next.

We are doing Food next, plus it's a theme we haven't touched yet and would be interesting. We can discuss how that madness will work out later this next.

I want to do the SNL theme right after that from the last ATW suggestion. Then we can touch the music category again. Maybe in one of the off months, we can do a mini madness like what Koop suggested or use the sports leagues.

January - Ultimate Madness = Ferris Bueller's Day Off
March - Food Madness
May - Saturday Night Live Madness
July - Song Madness
September -
November -
