The Evil Doers' Final Four
In honor of Shabbat Zachor, when we recall the evil done to us by Amalek, and in anticipation of March Madness here is a link to an ingenious bracketing of the most evil villains of Jewish history, all ranked and rated, as if they were NCAA basketball teams. My son Ethan did this in 2008, but it's still pretty accurate today. Unfortunately, our enemies seem to have as much staying power as we do. Madoff wasn't there yet, so maybe we need to add a play-in game to this tournament. See it here.
