****Official World's Greatest Draft****

[naomi 350]

If I can get a first round pick in still I'll take David Koresh for religious leader.

[Voltaire 4,587]

This is one of those rare football positions where there is no debate on the best ever. QB, RB there are always two or three guys named, but not here.

 

With my first rounder I wanted to maximize my chances of landing someone who will give me the best chance of being rated #1 overall in their category. Everything is up for interpretation of course but I feel Rice owns the WR category more than anybody else owns any other category.

[Voltaire 4,587]

And while we are at it...

 

We need to have a draft thread and a separate commentary thread to get rid of the clutter.

 

Next, I don't know what Bucket of AIDS or Joe Bryant's Love Child even mean. I need a clarification.

 

Bucket of AIDS = judged in one of three ways

1) on fame/celebrity status/notoriety of somebody either with HIV/AIDS or

2) someone who has made great contributions in the fight against HIV/AIDS or

3) someone who's incredible stupidity/irresponsibility has resulted in making the HIV/AIDS situation worse

 

Joe Bryant's Love Child -

people with the temperment/disposition/personality traits of Joe Bryant

[Chronic Husker 85]

3) someone who's incredible stupidity/irresponsibility has resulted in making the HIV/AIDS situation worse

So, can somebody fraft Ronald Reagan and use him as greatest leader and Bucket of AIDS?

[Voltaire 4,587]

So, can somebody fraft Ronald Reagan and use him as greatest leader and Bucket of AIDS?

 

You'd plug him in as either/or. In Bucket of Aids category, Ronald Reagan is only judged in how he helped/hindered the fight against AIDS. He gets no help from his celebrity/fame since he wasn't infected.

[patweisers44 710]

1.10 Muhammed

 

Right now plug him in as religious leader.

1.11 William Shakespeare - Writer/poet/bard/storyteller

[Voltaire 4,587]

1.11 William Shakespeare - Writer/poet/bard/storyteller

 

I was pretty sure that one wasn't going to come back around to me.

[IAMWood 6]

1.11 William Shakespeare - Writer/poet/bard/storyteller

 

Steal of the draft thus far.

 

[IAMWood 6]

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs

Fockin' up the scenery, breakin' my mind

Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

 

Nice pick. A real triple threat.

 

I know you are joking but just for clarification,The Band originally did that song. Tesla is nothing but an average hair band who sang a cover that pretty much imitated the original.

just for further clarification, it was the Five Man Electrical Band that did "Signs" not "The Band", who were the group famous for "The Weight" (a dylan song i think), "Cripple Creek", and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down"

That's right, I just knew it wasn't Tesla, I didn't take the time to look it up, I knew it had something to do with "band". My bad. The songs you metioned by The Band do rock, I must say. Just making sure Tesla wasn't getting credit for a great song like that, I am sure Five man wouldn't be offended by my mistake, but would be offended by the Tesla one.

10 smarter?

Little hung over. My poor posting skillz are even worse than usual.

Yeah, your posts today have been 3 worse than usual.

2.5 Marilyn Monroe - Hot Actress

[Big Blue 06 195]

2.1 - Jenna Jameson, Porn Star

 

Another absolute, 100% number 1 in their category. I was waiting for someone to pick her.

I beg to differ, but they will probably be gone by the time I pick next.

[TAS 2]

Agreed. Way too subjective.

[Big Blue 06 195]

I beg to differ, but they will probably be gone by the time I pick next.

 

There's only one person that you could be thinking of and I could see the argument for them.

You are a big John Holmes fan, just embrace it and be yourself.

 

or Marilyn Chambers, although I doubt it.

[SUXBNME 1,357]

2.6 - Bill Gates (businessman/merchant/banker/trader)

[Big Blue 06 195]

I can honestly say I'm not sure who John Holmes is, and that fact makes me very happy.

[cbfalcon 824]

Whose up? BLS, then Naomi, then me?

 

I have a reach to make, but it's one of those situations where I'd just quit if I didn't get this player.

[Voltaire 4,587]

BLS took Albert Einstein. It's Naomi's turn, hopefully she's got the hang of it now.

[cbfalcon 824]

Volt, it would likely help if you kept updating whose pick it was in the sub-heading of the thread.

 

Or is that going on somewhere else since I never saw the Einstein pick?

One of the other drafters started a shadow thread. I'll see if I can modify the title. I've never done that before but kutulu does it all the time in the Lost thread. The thing is, with my time zone difference, I'm not around around to keep it updated so I can't keep it accurate.

I have done no such thing. Also, you just edit the first post and then you can edit the title, I heard.
