Every six months or so, Jon Bois over at SB Nation has enough GIFs to bring us a tournament. They cover all sports, from high school basketball and the Little League World Series to the heights of the NFL and NBA. These are the highlights of my tweet-reading and internetting for the short window of time we have to vote and debate these gems. For review, the past winners are:

GIF TOURNAMENT I: ROLLERBLADING RAPTORS MASCOT



GIF TOURNAMENT II: REBUFFED BUCK SHOWALTER



GIF TOURNAMENT III: TIM LINCECUM

GIF TOURNAMENT IV: SNIPED METS FAN

I'd like to discuss our favorites from this tournament, and past winners and losers. Baseball seem over-represented? Go vote! Also,

HAIL RAPTOR

Nothing can ever defeat the raptor gif. Except for another equally amazing raptor gif.

I know the pitcher is only checking the runner at 1st, but I swear he senses what is going on in the stands.

That and Randy Johnson pitching against John Kruk in the All Star Game are two of my all time favorite moments in baseball

Also George Brett and the Pine Tar incident.

That's the only one I had to stop and think about before voting. I went with the chick attacking just because she caused more carnage and impacted more people. But that kick was a work of fucking art.

The Bama fan is a funny video but subpar gif, imo. The face kick was great because if anyone ever deserved a surprise face kick, it was probably that kid.

Spoiler: show

This is what happens when your snap count is, "gonna snap in six seconds! Gonna snap in four seconds! Gonna snap in two seconds! Snapping right now! Snapped the ball one second ag---OOF."
