The Blazer’s Edge Best Thing Ever Tournament is offering one of the toughest choices possible today. For those who haven’t caught up yet, this is a March Madness style bracket of completely random, yet honestly pretty good, things matched up against each other. The extensive first round will whittle 64 Good Things down to 32. Then the real battles begin on the way to naming the Best Thing Ever in 2026. All you have to do to participate is pick your favorite from the matchups in our daily posts. Together
we’ll get through the dog days of NBA summer with this fun little added discussion!
This post offers a choice between Star Wars and Spouses.
The Star Wars franchise, birthed by George Lucas in 1977, has spawned countless movies, television series, toys, books, and more. Half the people in our audience have probably owned a pair of Star Wars undies at some point in their lives. And who hasn’t breathed deeply while saying, “Luke, I am your father [sic]“? In the process, we’ve gotten droids, The Force, death stars, lightsabers, Wookies, and enough lore to last six lifetimes.
Star Wars would be shoo-in Round 1 winner too, but there’s one person you’d better not show your vote to if it goes that way. Yup, it’s the love of your life, the person of your dreams, ‘til death do us part and all that. Are you really going to vote against your spouse, no matter how amazing and cool the other nominee stacked against them is? The Best Thing Ever Tournament bracket is going to test that resolve, and it begins today.
