Pillsbury Rocks the Vote at Eastbay 7428 Shoot-Out / Quarterfinals begin July 18th

90045 - Rock Pillsbury, athletic director of Sierra Canyon School (Chatsworth), who has built the nations top high school athletic program, pulled off the biggest upset yet at the Eastbay 7428 Shoot-Out, repelling the power of the armed forces and overcoming the leader in worldwide sports to advance to the quarterfinals.  

The event matches up Sports Stories with Denny Lennon (SSDL) video podcast guests pre-interview basketball shots against one another in a 12-team single elimination tournament.  The championship team (guest and charity) of the event, which will conclude on August 7th, will receive a $1000 Eastbay gift card for the charity.

The #11 seeded Pillsbury flexed his considerable network of muscles, attracting the highest number votes to date with an opening round win over the Heroes’ Movement founder, #6 seed Mike McKay.  The Navy veteran McKay called on the “Mother Ship” of sports networks, ESPN, to buoy his teams’ cause.  Popular sports anchor Neil Everett made an appeal to a worldwide audience on his ESPN Radio show , but it was the strength of “Team Rock”, which includes the Harold and Carole Pump Foundation, that won the matchup by a 76% to 24% advantage.

The winners of the opening round each have submitted post-matchup video interviews, which are available on Patreon.  Go to www.patreon.com/DennyLennon for this free content, which not only includes sportscaster Randy Rosenbloom’s accusatorial tirade, but additional related content from @TheBoxCobbler, an Eastbay promo video and other extras.  The Patreon link is also available on our website www.SportsStoriesPodcast.com

Now it is on the “Elite Eight” of the tournament. Quarterfinal matchups will continue to take place on twitter @SportsStoriesDL, one vote per matchup per supporter.  Links to the SSDL video podcast interviews of each of the quarterfinalists have been included below, which will further educate our twitter followers and Eastbay 7428 Shoot-Out legion of fans.
