Deadspin SHOTY Tournament: Barbaro Vs. Ben Roethlisberger

We're to our final quarterfinal matchup, with the semis taking place next week in a torrent of voting mania. (Or something.) We encourage you all to vote on the extremely tight Mariotti-Reynolds matchup. First, a reminder of the bracket.

For all those who felt Barbaro was robbed in the Hall of Fame voting, here's another chance to show your support. Meanwhile, Ben Roethlisberger was dangerously close to becoming glue several times himself this year.
The matchup breakdown:
No. 3 Seed: Barbaro 2006 Highlights Crashed out at the Preakness. Inspired some amazing letters (and haiku!). Banged a woman, fictionally. Didn't die. In fact, got, uh, a few more letters.
No. 6 Seed: Ben Roethlisberger 2006 Highlights Showed us just how to drink like a champion. Celebrated winning a Super Bowl by cutting his hair. Crashed his helmetless head into something made of concrete. Lost an appendix. Accepted that his team wasn't very good anymore.
So, go vote: Who is headed for the Final Four?
