Artie, while this is a fun idea, I'm sure people are going to want you to switch to Mediabase. Plus, then we can do a bracket of 32 spots and use active rock which is way better than Billboard Mainstream Rock cuz of all the crappy heritage rock stations that report to it. That said, I'll bite:
Panic Switch vs. I've Got Friends
Hey You vs. Careless Whisper
Know Your Enemy vs. Sink Into Me (I never thought I'd vote for Taking Back Sunday over anything, but this song isn't bad and KYE is one of my least favorites of all time.)
Use Somebody vs. Sex On Fire
Ain't No Rest For The Wicked vs. 21 Guns
Feel Good Drag vs. No You Girls
Black Heart Inertia vs. Audience Of One
New Divide vs. Sound Of Madness (another near toss-up)

One future idea might be to put the active rock chart against the alternative rock chart. Then again, you run the risk of having a song face itself.

Oh well, I'll root for Billboard this once since I'm mad at the huge leap forward "New Divide" took over the song of the year, as soon as it was getting closer. June 27 Billboard Modern Rock Tracks: 1 Panic Switch16 I've Got Friends 8 Hey You 9 Careless Whisper5 Know Your Enemy (Neither artists' best song, though.)12 Sink Into Me 4 Use Somebody(Technically I like SOF more. But get the f**k away already!)13 Sex On Fire 3 Ain't No Rest For The Wicked 14 21 Guns6 Feel Good Drag 11 No You Girls (Just because it's much newer. While it bugged me that it could've stolen some airplay from "Zero" in its payloading I also take comfort in the fact that "Zero" isn't doing that badly, either.)7 Black Heart Inertia 10 Audience Of One2 New Divide15 Sound Of Madness

1 Panic Switch 16 I've Got Friends (It's so close, both songs are great though)
8 Hey You (I hate Careless Whisper.) 9 Careless Whisper
5 Know Your Enemy 12 Sink Into Me (Know Your Enemy imo, is Green Day's worst single yet.)
4 Use Somebody (Never got the hype for Sex On Fire, however I find this one to be amazing) 13 Sex On Fire
3 Ain't No Rest For The Wicked 14 21 Guns (Despite my love for both songs, I gotta go with Green Day)
6 Feel Good Drag 11 No You Girls
7 Black Heart Inertia 10 Audience Of One (I don't really like either, but I hate Black Heart Inertia)
2 New Divide 15 Sound Of Madness (New Divide sounds too much like What I've Done. It's still great though)
I feel special, I'm the only one that picked I've Got Friends. Haha.

That was easy! Would've probably voted for FGD if it was months ago, but it's so old to me.

I voted FGD cuz despite it being old I was amazed by it at the time. And I constantly listened to it. With 21 Guns it's like..yeah..it's good but bleh.
Btw Artie, I don't hate you. This was a good idea.
