<p>For this week&#8217;s mock draft you&#8217;ll be selecting an indulgent food, beverage, or other consumable that you would want to make &#8220;healthy&#8221; through the power of magic. The first pick is a no-brainer, so I&#8217;ll just go ahead and take beer off of the board. Now I can be just like Bender, drinking all day and night without having to worry about my liver turning all cirrhosis-y. If I could just get somebody to weld me a shiny metal ass I&#8217;d be in business. </p>
<p>Make your pick(s) in the comment section, but remember to wait ten picks before selecting again. And let&#8217;s all try to not draft bacon over and over. </p>

For this weeks&#8217; commenter draft we&#8217;re delving back into the world of film. Your job is to draft bad scenes that you would excise from otherwise awesome movies. We&#8217;ll start things off for you with Drew&#8217;s suggested pick, Butch and Fabienne&#8217;s bedroom scene from Pulp Fiction.

<p>For this weeks&#8217; commenter draft we&#8217;re delving back into the world of film. Your job is to draft bad scenes that you would excise from otherwise awesome movies. We&#8217;ll start things off for you with Drew&#8217;s suggested pick, Butch and Fabienne&#8217;s bedroom scene from <em>Pulp Fiction</em>.</p>

<p>God damn, I hate you, Fabienne. </p>
<p>Make your own selections (one at a fucking time) in the comment section, and remember to wait 10 picks before selecting again. Once a movie has been selected all other scenes from that movie are off the board. And remember, we&#8217;re eliminating scenes from <em>good</em> movies. So don&#8217;t go picking some random crappy scene from <em>Overboard</em>. Are you still reading? Of course you&#8217;re not, because you&#8217;re a fucking jackass who is just going to ignore these guidelines anyway. Oh, and your sister is a whore. </p>
<p><em>Note you&#8217;ll surely ignore: Endings are off limits. </em></p>

<p>Welcome to another glorious Friday on the internet. For today&#8217;s commenter mock draft we&#8217;ll be examining the most badass characters in film. Specifically you&#8217;ll be drafting the one movie character you&#8217;d want to have your back in a street fight. For the sake of the draft we&#8217;re limiting the scope to flesh-and-blood humans who lack super-powers. So if you were to draft the Terminator, for example, I would not hesitate to edit your comment to make you look like a filthy pedophile. I&#8217;m tough, but completely unfair. Note: Once someone is selected all of the actor&#8217;s other characters are off teh board.</p>
<p><span id="more-14541"></span></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll get the ball rolling with the first pick, Jason Bourne. He can take anybody apart with ease, and I don&#8217;t have to worry about him snapping like John Rambo. </p>
<p>Add your picks in the comment section, but remember to play by the fucking rules. Oh, and thanks to reader Zach for inspiring this week&#8217;s topic.</p>

<p>Now that the NFL Draft has come and gone it&#8217;s time to hand the Friday Mock Drafts over to you, the reader. This week&#8217;s draft topic is inspired by a behind-the-scenes argument between members of KSK over whether Popeye&#8217;s is a better fast food option than Burger King. It is. By a lot. But what of all the other fast food options lurking out there? That&#8217;s where you come in. Everyone is free to draft their favorite fast food establishment in the comment section, but please, play by the rules*. </p>
<p><span id="more-14297"></span></p>
<p>The guidelines are fairly simple. For the sake of clarity we&#8217;re limiting this draft to fast food chains. This means standalone eateries like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apple_Pan">The Apple Pan</a> are <em>not</em> eligible. </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll get things started with a ceremonial first pick, <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-N-Out_Burger">In &#8216;N Out Burger</a></b>. Sure they&#8217;re owned and operated by <a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/evpodolny/RsMgyujMxQI/AAAAAAAAAZs/skzqPoR4_Xs/s400/DSC00376.JPG">religious fanatics</a>, but there is no better fast food burger out there. In fact it&#8217;s the only fast food burger I would comfortably pick ahead of my beloved Popeye&#8217;s.</p>
<p>*This means drafting one eatery at a time and waiting ten picks before selecting again. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to the final KSK Mock Draft before the actual 2009 NFL Draft. For this week&#8217;s installment we&#8217;ll be drafting party scenes from film that we would like to have attended. There are no real rules for this draft, although the party you select has to be an actual party with guests other than yourself and some naked chick (oh, and no porn). </p>
<p><center><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Z1l5PFs2eTc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x234900&#038;color2=0x4e9e00"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Z1l5PFs2eTc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x234900&#038;color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><center><em>Everybody&#8217;s honorable mention.</em></center></center></p>
<p>Once a party from a particular film has been drafted all other parties from that film are off the board. The order is as follows.</p>
<p>   1. Punte<br />
   2. Ape<br />
   3. Drew<br />
   4. Unsilent<br />
   5. Ufford<br />
   6. Flubby</p>
<p>It should be noted that Random.com&#8217;s list randomizing feature hates Flubby for some reason. It&#8217;s probably a Kentucky fan. Continue after the jump for the results, then play along in the comments.</p>
<p><span id="more-14054"></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Punte- Toga party from <em>Animal House</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/animal_house_toga.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/animal_house_toga.jpg" alt="" title="animal_house_toga" width="350" height="238" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14064" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Obligatory. </em></p>
<p><strong>2. Ape- <em>Boogie Nights</em> New Year&#8217;s Party</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mooreguzman.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mooreguzman.jpg" alt="" title="mooreguzman" width="500" height="281" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14057" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>If you can get over William H. Macy shooting his wife and himself, which I can, seems like a good time. Plus, the movie turns really depressing after this, so I know I got in at the right time.</em></p>
<p>That&#8217;s already two off of my list right off the bat. This should be a contentious draft. </p>
<p><strong>3. Drew- The Moon Tower Party from <em>Dazed And Confused</em></strong></p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XCvXcBWkas0&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/XCvXcBWkas0&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a new fiesta in the making as we speak.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>Until my graduation week, I don&#8217;t think I ever got to go to a big high school party in an open field where people got drunk and smoked up and all that shit.  I so, so, so badly wish that had been a regular part of my youth.</em></p>
<p><strong>4. The &#8220;Save the Pit&#8221; party from <em>PCU</em></strong></p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/t_M0VN90nTI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/t_M0VN90nTI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>Tonight at the Pit, Everyone Gets Laid.</p>
<p>Ufford: The Ice Storm swingers party.  RAWR! Kidding.  I&#8217;ll have something soon.  Sorry, I&#8217;m fighting a hangover this morning.</p>
<p>Punte: Uff drafts the volleyball scene in <em>Top Gun</em>.</p>
<p><strong>5. Ufford- <em>Old School</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/old-school.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/old-school.jpg" alt="" title="old-school" width="500" height="322" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14069" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Can&#8217;t say I&#8217;m enamored with this pick.  I was really looking for something with more drugs and strippers and gambling.</em></p>
<p>Hey, Snoop played, hot high school chicks showed up, and there were whippets. You could do worse. </p>
<p><strong>6. Flubby- Caddy Day at the Bushwood CC</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/caddyshack.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/caddyshack.jpg" alt="" title="caddyshack" width="450" height="250" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14066" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Tough call as there are a few good party scenes in Caddyshack (dinner party, yacht christening, post-match celebration). </em></p>
<p>This will certainly be the shortest lived party drafted today. </p>
<p><strong>7. Flubby- Connie and Carlo&#8217;s wedding reception in <em>The Godfather</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/godfather-wedding-talia-shi.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/godfather-wedding-talia-shi.jpg" alt="" title="godfather-wedding-talia-shi" width="500" height="267" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14067" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Awesome spread, live band, plus Clemenza gets drunk and makes a fool of himself&#8211; then I&#8217;d get to hit up Vito Corleone for a favor and he has to say yes.</em></p>
<p>Damn, I really wanted the wedding party so I could ask Vito to whack somebody. Excellent value pick.</p>
<p><strong>8. Ufford- Samuel L. Jackson&#8217;s blues performance in <em>Black Snake Moan</em></strong></p>
<p><center><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/T233K_9fSWI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/T233K_9fSWI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></center></p>
<p><em>Hot, sweaty bar in the sticks with Christina Ricci and sexy black chicks getting down to motherfuckin&#8217; SAM JACKSON.</em></p>
<p><strong>9. Unsilent- The Halloween Party from <em>How High</em></strong></p>
<p>Sure there would be plenty of Harvard douchebags, but there were plenty of hot chicks and Cypress Hill performed in a fucking dorm. Bonus points if I can get my hands on some of their OG Kush. </p>
<p><strong>10. Drew- The orgy from <em>Eyes Wide Shut</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/abracadabra.jpeg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/abracadabra.jpeg" alt="" title="abracadabra" width="500" height="375" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14070" /></a></center></p>
<p>Drew would just stand in the corner touching himself. </p>
<p><strong>11. Ape- The player&#8217;s party from <em>Any Given Sunday</em></strong></p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tzoZ_7AdACU&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tzoZ_7AdACU&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p><em>Drugs, strippers, pro football players in Miami with Lawrence Taylor chainsawing a car in half .</em></p>
<p>Ufford: Dammit.  THAT&#8217;S the kind of party I was looking for.  Stupid brain.</p>
<p><strong>12. Punte- The Playboy Mansion party in <em>Beverly Hills Cop II </em></strong></p>

<p><em>There&#8217;s a plushies joke in here somewhere, I&#8217;m sure.</em></p>

<p>Have to hobnob with high society types for a while, but food will be good and the booze top notch. And the pay-off, of course, is that I get to watch Batman fight The Joker.</p>
<p><strong>15. Drew- End of the world party, <em>Rules of Attraction</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/rules.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/rules.jpg" alt="" title="rules" width="395" height="315" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14072" /></a></center></p>
<p>Sex, drugs, hot coeds in lingerie.  Fucking Colby College.</p>
<p><strong>16. Unsilent- Tony Lacey&#8217;s party in <em>Annie Hall</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/i-forgot-my-mantra.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/i-forgot-my-mantra.jpg" alt="" title="i-forgot-my-mantra" width="500" height="281" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14071" /></a><center><em>&#8220;I forgot my mantra.&#8221;</em></center></center></p>
<p>At this point in the draft Ufford attempts to select the orgy from <em>Eyes Wide Shut</em> that Drew already drafted implicitly. </p>
<p>Ufford: Oh. You mean the time where you just attached an image and DIDN&#8217;T SAY ANYTHING? Yeah, that&#8217;s <em>my</em> fault.</p>
<p>I hate it when Mommy and Daddy fight!</p>
<p><strong>17. Ufford- Rudd and Rogen&#8217;s trip to Vegas from <em>Knocked Up</em></strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/knocked-up-vegas.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/knocked-up-vegas.jpg" alt="" title="knocked-up-vegas" width="500" height="307" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14068" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Strippers and Cirque du Soleil on mushrooms.</em></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think Rudd and Rogen&#8217;s trip qualifies as a party. Unless the guests were the chairs. But we&#8217;ll let this one slide, because it&#8217;s always a party with shrooms. </p>
<p><strong>18. Flubby- The rave scene from <em>Matrix Reloaded</em></strong></p>

<p><em>Crappy movie and the scene ran too long&#8211; but looks like a real hootenanny.</em></p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s up to you to fill out the list in the comments. Please select one scene at a time and wait ten picks before selecting again. Nobody likes an asshole. And remember, starting next week the mock drafts will all be commenter driven. Knock yourselves out. </p>

<p>For this week&#8217;s mock draft we&#8217;re selecting articles of clothing that when picked will disappear forever. To kick things off we&#8217;ve invited our dear friend George Will to throw out the ceremonial &#8220;first pitch&#8221; in this draft. George, the stage is yours. </p>
<p>I. George Will- <a href="http://townhall.com/columnists/GeorgeWill/2009/04/16/forever_in_blue_jeans">Denim Jeans</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Denim is the carefully calculated costume of people eager to communicate indifference to appearances. But the appearances that people choose to present in public are cues from which we make inferences about their maturity and respect for those to whom they are presenting themselves. </p></blockquote>
<p>Wow. So what you&#8217;re saying is that you&#8217;re a dick?</p>
<blockquote><p>Do not blame Levi Strauss for the misuse of Levis.</p></blockquote>
<p>Blaming the Jew isn&#8217;t really my style.</p>
<blockquote><p>When the Gold Rush began, Strauss moved to San Francisco planning to sell strong fabric for the 49ers&#8217; tents and wagon covers. Eventually, however, he made tough pants, reinforced by copper rivets, for the tough men who knelt on the muddy, stony banks of Northern California creeks, panning for gold. </p></blockquote>
<p>GRRRRR!</p>
<blockquote><p>Today it is silly for Americans whose closest approximation of physical labor consists of loading their bags of clubs into golf carts to go around in public dressed for driving steers up the Chisholm Trail to the railhead in Abilene.</p></blockquote>
<p>Hey, I may love jeans, but that doesn&#8217;t mean I wear them to play golf. That would be uncouth. </p>
<blockquote><p>This is not complicated. For men, sartorial good taste can be reduced to one rule: If Fred Astaire would not have worn it, don&#8217;t wear it. For women, substitute Grace Kelly.</p></blockquote>
<p>Thank God, because I look great in a <a href="http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff59/jerrywaggon/fred-astaire.jpg">top hat</a>. It&#8217;s a timeless look, really. </p>
<blockquote><p>A confession: The author owns one pair of jeans. Wore them once. Had to.</p></blockquote>
<p>Didn&#8217;t want to. <a href="http://fitsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/judge-smails.jpg">Felt I owed it to them</a>.</p>
<p>Continue after the jump for the actual draft.</p>
<p><span id="more-13862"></span></p>
<p>The draft order is as follows&#8230;</p>
<p>1. Maj<br />
2. Ape<br />
3. Punte<br />
4. Uff<br />
5. Drew<br />
6. Flubby</p>
<p><strong>1. Unsilent: Scarves</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/scarf.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/scarf.jpg" alt="" title="scarf" width="376" height="490" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13866" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Seriously, it&#8217;s not that cold out, your neck will be ok. I don&#8217;t even know why I hate scarves, but I do. </em></p>
<p>Ufford: Fuck you, it&#8217;s DAMN cold out.</p>
<p><strong>2. Ape: Golf Visor</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/visordouche.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/visordouche.jpg" alt="" title="visordouche" width="302" height="500" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13867" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Yet another reason why golf is gay. Just wear a hat, you fucking asshole.</em></p>
<p><strong>3. Punte: Skorts</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/skort2.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/skort2.jpg" alt="" title="skort2" width="460" height="429" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13869" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>You&#8217;re wearing a skirt or you&#8217;re not, ladies. It&#8217;s time to commit. </em></p>
<p><strong>4. Ufford: Gaucho pants.</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/gaucho-pants.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/gaucho-pants.jpg" alt="" title="gaucho-pants" width="360" height="540" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13872" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Look at that.  That chick has a phenomenally sexy lower half of a body, and she looks like an asshole.  It&#8217;s like women woke up one day and said, &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be great if my legs looked shorter and fatter?&#8221;</em></p>
<p><strong>5. Drew: <a href="http://fatherknowsshit.blogspot.com/2006/04/tevas-are-worse-than-hitle_114589870002501413.html">Teva Sandals</a></strong></p>
<p><em>I don&#8217;t care if no one wears them anymore.  I just want to hedge against a future Teva renaissance.  I fucking hate Tevas.</em></p>
<p><strong>6. Flubby: Adult Crocs</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/large_crocs.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/large_crocs.jpg" alt="" title="large_crocs" width="432" height="396" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13871" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Ugly shoes designed to make your feet hotter than balls, great idea</em></p>
<p>Ufford: DAMMIT.  I regretted not drafting Crocs with my first pick as soon as I made it.</p>
<p>Flubby: I almost didn&#8217;t pick Crocs since they seem to be <a href="http://www.fool.com/investing/small-cap/2008/01/07/the-other-shoe-drops-at-crocs.aspx">pretty much out of the picture</a>, but not many articles of clothing bug me that much. Also Drew, I will never quit wearing my mandals. </p>
<p>Drew: Fucking dirty hippie</p>
<p><strong>7. Flubby: Replica Jerseys</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jersey.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jersey.jpg" alt="" title="jersey" width="353" height="440" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13873" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Grow the fuck up, toolbag.</em></p>
<p><strong>8. Drew: Ties</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/polyester_woven_ties.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/polyester_woven_ties.jpg" alt="" title="polyester_woven_ties" width="360" height="360" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13876" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>I hate wearing them.  I hate tying them.  I hate the fact that I can&#8217;t wear one without getting a goddamn cocktail sauce stain right in the center of it.  And ties usually cause the person wearing them to become sanctimonious pricks, particularly bowties.</em></p>
<p>Ufford: Fuck that.  I&#8217;m eight kinds of suave in a tie.</p>
<p><strong>9. Ufford: Skinny jeans</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/asshole1.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/asshole1.jpg" alt="" title="asshole1" width="250" height="507" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13886" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>I&#8217;ll take the loss of women wearing them for the endless joy of never seeing another hipster fag in them.</em></p>
<p><strong>10. Punte: Vests</strong></p>
<p><center><object width="512" height="296"><param name="movie" value="http://www.hulu.com/embed/5Zq1avS7B0oIOGIz8Mcu4g"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.hulu.com/embed/5Zq1avS7B0oIOGIz8Mcu4g" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true"  width="512" height="296"></embed></object></center></p>
<p><em>Spend the extra five bucks and get some sleeves, asshole. </em></p>
<p><strong>11. Ape: Chain wallets</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/chainwallet.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/chainwallet.jpg" alt="" title="chainwallet" width="500" height="495" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13879" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Not en vogue like in the mid-90s but they still crop up. I&#8217;d love to garrote you with that chain. </em></p>
<p>Drew: Can I change my pick to Red Sox hats?</p>
<p><strong>12. Unsilent: Red Sox hats</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/boston-red-sox-hat.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/boston-red-sox-hat.jpg" alt="" title="boston-red-sox-hat" width="450" height="300" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13880" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Somebody had to take them, and the time felt right. </em></p>
<p><strong>13. Unsilent: Jorts</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jorts-its-true.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jorts-its-true.jpg" alt="" title="jorts-its-true" width="500" height="461" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13881" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Because George Will was </em>half<em> right. </em></p>
<p><strong>14. Ape: Novelty belt buckles</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/anthony-kim-belt-buckle.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/anthony-kim-belt-buckle.jpg" alt="" title="GOLF-PGA/" width="500" height="331" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13864" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Just to piss off Texans and urban cowboys.</em></p>
<p><strong>15. Punte: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/2xZp-GLMMJ0&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;color1=0x5d1719&#038;color2=0xcd311b">Snuggies</a></strong></p>

<p><em>They&#8217;re basically crocs for your body.</em></p>
<p>I guess the sleeves make it an article of clothing. </p>
<p><strong>16. Ufford: Faux-vintage t-shirts.</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/fake-vintage.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/fake-vintage.jpg" alt="" title="fake-vintage" width="460" height="394" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13870" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Get your douchey ass out of Urban Outfitters and wear an actual OLD t-shirt.</em></p>
<p>That&#8217;s the pick of the draft so far. Urban Outfitters should be firebombed. </p>
<p><strong>17. Drew: Muscle shirts</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jeffsing.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/jeffsing.jpg" alt="" title="jeffsing" width="300" height="329" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13882" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>Nice pipes, shithead.  &#8220;What time you due back at Boys Town?&#8221;</em></p>
<p><strong>18. Flubby: Fruity pink polo shirts in all sizes except XXXL.</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/poloshirt.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/poloshirt.jpg" alt="" title="poloshirt" width="330" height="350" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13883" /></a></center></p>
<p><em>So as not to decimate Drew&#8217;s wardrobe.</em></p>
<p>Something tells me that those shirts are taking up more than 10% of Drew&#8217;s closet.</p>
<p>Drew: I STILL GOT MY SALMON SHIRTS, BABY</p>
<p>It should be noted that Drew is delusional.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it for us, we&#8217;ll leave the rest to you. Play by the rules and wait ten picks before selecting again. Oh, and try to not draft the same thing fifty times, especially if it&#8217;s one of the things listed above.</p>

<p>For this week&#8217;s draft we&#8217;re selecting historical events we would like to witness firsthand. This draft encompasses all the world&#8217;s history going back to the advent of the written word (roughly 8,000 years ago). The one important stipulation is that nothing you do can change the event or alter history in any way. This means no traveling back to the time and place of Hitler&#8217;s birth and stomping the life out of his tiny newborn body in front of his horrified parents.</p>
<p>Draft order is as follows&#8230;</p>
<p>   1. Ape<br />
   2. Punter<br />
   3. Unsilent<br />
   4. Ufford<br />
   5. Flubby<br />
   6. Drew</p>
<p><span id="more-13664"></span></p>
<p><center><b>FIRST ROUND</B></CENTER></p>
<p><strong>Ape- <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giotto_di_Bondone">Giotto drawing a perfect circle</a></strong></p>
<p><em>Just so I could be around to mutter, &#8220;Psst, that joint ain&#8217;t perfect. WACK!&#8221;</em></p>
<p><strong>Punter- My own birth</strong></p>
<p><em>Because I&#8217;m the most important person I know. </em></p>
<p>Plus it&#8217;s disgusting!</p>

<p><em>No deal, McCutcheon, that moon money is mine!<br />

<p><strong>Ufford- JFK&#8217;s assassination</strong></p>

<p><em>He gets the nod over Lincoln because his head LITERALLY came apart in pieces.  Although it would have been cool to see John Wilkes Booth jump off the balcony and break his leg, Lincoln didn&#8217;t even die right away because bullets sucked so hard back then.</em></p>
<p>After being asked whether he&#8217;d be in the car or in the book depository he responded, &#8220;I&#8217;ll take next to the shooter with a 10x spotting scope.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Flubby- The Last Supper</strong></p>

<p><em>I don&#8217;t buy into the whole divinity story, but I still think he would have been a cat worth meeting&#8211; or at least seeing up close.</em></p>
<p>Ufford: You could totally punch Judas in the balls.  Wouldn&#8217;t change history, and you could say you punched Judas in the balls.</p>
<p><strong>Drew- Christ&#8217;s Crucifixion</strong></p>
<p><em>Just so I can tell Christians today, &#8220;You know, he died like a pig.&#8221; </em></p>
<p><center><b>SECOND ROUND</B></CENTER></p>
<p><strong>Drew- Hitler&#8217;s suicide</strong></p>
<p><em>Hugely satisfying.</em></p>
<p>Drew doesn&#8217;t really care who&#8217;s dying, he just wants to see some death. </p>
<p><strong>Flubby- Game 5 of the 1908 World Series</strong></p>

<p><em>/Cubs fan</em></p>
<p>Drew: You keep that part of your soul quite well hidden.</p>
<p>Ape: I don&#8217;t see how viewing a 101-year-old World Series victory makes you feel any better about rooting for the team.</p>
<p>Ufford: says the kid whose favorite team wins the Super Bowl every couple years.</p>
<p>Ape: I did have to wait through 22 years and a number of crushing defeats in big games for the first one.</p>
<p><strong>Ufford- <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Boleyn#Downfall_and_execution_.281536.29">Execution of Anne Boleyn</a></strong></p>
<p><em>Private 16th century beheading of the Queen that led to the Reformation?  In the Tower of London?  When it still had a moat?  And her lips kept moving in prayer for 10-15 seconds when the executioner held her head aloft?  FUCK AND YES.</em></p>
<p><strong>Unsilent- Exodus</strong></p>
<p><em>Just in case Moses really did part the Red Sea.</em></p>

<p><em>Gotta be fun to watch bikers whale on some hippies. </em></p>

<p>Ape: Hmm. I should have asked if you&#8217;d be affected if you saw something like that firsthand.</p>
<p>Ufford: Since someone got to go to the moon, I&#8217;m assuming I get a protective bubble&#8230; although a soundwave that knocked me off my feet would be pretty badass.</p>
<p>Unsilent: Agreed.</p>
<p>Drew: Very nice. Flub?  DON&#8217;T BOGART MY PICK.</p>
<p>Ape: And the weekly &#8220;Drew thinks he has a good pick and taunts you into trying to guess it&#8221; routine presses on.</p>
<p>Drew: MY PICKS ARE-AH BETTAH THAN YOUR-AH PICKS<br />
/unhappy with my first two picks</p>
<p>Unsilent: But you took two people dying. What could be more fun?!?!</p>

<p><em>I get to see a metor kill all the dinosaurs.  Neat.</p>

<p>Ape: &#8220;This draft encompasses all the world&#8217;s history going back to the advent of the written word (roughly 8,000 years ago).&#8221; </p>
<p>DREWFAIL</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/superpowers.gif"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/superpowers.gif" alt="" title="superpowers" width="500" height="384" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13367" /></a></center></p>
<p>This week&#8217;s draft is a twist on an old classic. You&#8217;re drafting a singular super power from a fictional character, though not their entire catalog of abilities. Also, you must take on their appearance. Again, we&#8217;re lazy slugabeds who only got through one round, leaving commenters more opportunity to <strike>ignore the rules</strike> make picks.</p>
<p><strong>Ufford&#8217;s explanation</strong><em>All right, you get to have one power from a fictional character from comics, literature, TV, or the movies.  Once a character has been used, s/he is off the board.  (For example, if you want Wolverine&#8217;s retractable claws, no one can claim his healing powers.)  Once a specific power shared by many characters has been drafted (i.e. flight or super strength), it&#8217;s off the board.  And if you draft a power that is connected to appearance, you also get that appearance as well (see: The Thing, Incredible Hulk).</p>
<p>Order:</p>
<p>1. Ape<br />
2. Maj<br />
3. flub<br />
4. drew<br />
5. Punter<br />
6. Uff </em></p>
<p><span id="more-13361"></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Ape &#8212; Manipulation of Matter (Dr. Manhattan)</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/watchmen-manhattanyell.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/watchmen-manhattanyell.jpg" alt="" title="watchmen-manhattanyell" width="600" height="290" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13363" /></a></center></p>
<p>Control of the basic elements of the universe has a multitude of applications. I can wipe people out of existence with the point of a finger. Create objects out of the ether. Well, just about anything. Plus I get a giant blue penis.</p>
<p><strong>2. Unsilent &#8212; Flight (Superman)</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/majfly.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/majfly.jpg" alt="" title="majfly" width="498" height="625" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13362" /></a></center></p>
<p>&#8220;Shove that up your ass airline industry! Plus, I&#8217;ll be able to dunk!&#8221;</p>
<p>UFFORD: &#8220;You dumbfuck!  Hundreds of characters fly!  You just pissed away X-ray vision and laser-eyes.&#8221;</p>
<p>APE: &#8220;Not to mention invulnerability.&#8221;</p>
<p>MAJ: &#8220;I&#8217;m not going to lie here, I don&#8217;t know very much about super heroes. Please try to hide your shock and dismay.&#8221;</p>
<p>DREW: &#8220;I&#8217;M TOO COOL FOR THEM!&#8221;</p>
<p>MAJ: &#8220;Don&#8217;t a bunch of guys have x-ray vision? And doesn&#8217;t the guy from xmen have laser eyes?&#8221;</p>
<p>APE: &#8220;Yeah, but Cyclops can&#8217;t control it on his own and has to wear a gay visor. Superman doesn&#8217;t.&#8221; </p>
<p><strong>3. flubby &#8212; Green Lantern&#8217;s ring</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/green_lantern-ring2.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/green_lantern-ring2.jpg" alt="" title="green_lantern-ring2" width="350" height="299" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13364" /></a></center></p>
<p>&#8220;VALUE PICK!&#8221;</p>
<p>Until someone hits you with a school bus, because you have the retarded weakness that is yellow objects.</p>
<p><strong>4. Drew &#8212; Power Cosmic (Galactus)</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/galactus.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/galactus.jpg" alt="" title="galactus" width="299" height="400" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13369" /></a></center></p>
<p>&#8216;Galactus can employ the Power Cosmic to produce nearly any effect he desires, including the molecular restructuring and transmutation of matter, the teleportation of objects — even the Golden Galaxy — across space or time, size-alteration, the projection of energy with indeterminable destructive force, the erection of nearly impenetrable force fields, the creation of interdimensional and intra-dimensional portals, telepathy, telekinesis, and cosmic awareness on a universal scale. Galactus has even shown the abilities to create sentient life in the form of Tyrant, resurrect his herald Morg, manipulate mortal souls, manipulate memories and emotions, and restore dead planets along with their population in every detail.&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8220;Seems like that could be handy.&#8221;</p>
<p>UFFORD: &#8220;Any other questions you want to ask that I already answered in the first email, Drew?&#8221;</p>
<p>DREW: &#8220;Punter&#8217;s up&#8221;</p>
<p>PUNTER: &#8220;&#8230;seriously, what&#8217;s left that Drew&#8217;s trip to the superpower buffet didn&#8217;t clear out?&#8221;</p>
<p>DREW: /sends Punters through interdimensional portal</p>
<p><strong>5. Punter &#8212; Thor&#8217;s hammer and helmet. Mostly the helmet.</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/puntethor.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/puntethor.jpg" alt="" title="puntethor" width="346" height="446" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13365" /></a></center></p>
<p><strong>6. Ufford &#8212; Prevarication, The Rumor (The Umbrella Academy).  </strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/therumor.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/therumor.jpg" alt="" title="therumor" width="310" height="500" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13366" /></a></center></p>
<p>&#8220;Anything she says becomes true.  She&#8217;ll be all, &#8220;Be careful crossing street, I heard that bus has no brakes and the driver&#8217;s a drunk.&#8221;  And then the bus hits them.  Besides being a great parlor trick, I would make a fortune in sports betting.&#8221;</p>
<p>He&#8217;ll have to lie well to pull off the purple hair and tits.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For this week&#8217;s mock draft we&#8217;re selecting the man (or woman) we would want to put our life story on film. You can select any &#8220;behind the camera&#8221; type you&#8217;d like, with the exception of animators. That leaves you free to pick your favorite writers, directors, and/or producers who will in turn be responsible for crafting your very own biopic.</p>
<p>Draft order is as follows&#8230;</p>
<p>   1. Drew<br />
   2. Flubby<br />
   3. KOGOD<br />
   4. Punte<br />
   5. Ufford<br />
   6. Ape</p>
<p>Am I forgetting anything? Oh yes, anyone drafting Michael Bay will be blown up in a completely unnecessary explosion. Let the drafting commence.</p>
<p><span id="more-12193"></span></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/coens-and-scorsese.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/coens-and-scorsese.jpg" alt="" title="Oscars Press Room" width="500" height="359" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12201" /></a></center></p>
<p><strong>Drew- <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001054/">Coen</a> <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001053/">Brothers</a></strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m guessing they&#8217;d mock my character for the course of the entire film, and end with me being hatcheted to death.  Oddly enough, I have no problem with any of that.  So long as they keep the quality at Miller&#8217;s Crossing level, and not Hudsucker/Intolerable Cruelty level.</p>
<p><em>Maj: Don&#8217;t besmirch Hudsucker.</p>
<p>Flubby: No shit, that movie was great.</em></p>
<p><em>Ed. note: Nobody even bitched that Drew fucked up right off the bat by selecting both brothers. That guy plays by his own rules.</em></p>
<p><b>Flubby- <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000233/">Quentin Tarantino</a></b></p>
<p>Because in his movie my humdrum workaday existence would be just a cover for something completely badass.  I&#8217;d probably be a vampire hit-man who always had oodles of snappy give and take for Punte&#8217;s podcasts &#8212; plus I would totally get to defenestrate whoever picks Woody Allen in this draft.</p>
<p><b>Maj: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000095/">Woody Allen</a></b></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/woody.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/woody.jpg" alt="" title="woody" width="500" height="308" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12214" /></a></center></p>
<p>As if I even had a choice. Defenstrate away, rube! Any movie based on my life wouldn&#8217;t be complete without a scene similar to the school scene from Annie Hall.</p>
<p><em>Ufford: Woody Allen is a fucking horrible pick.</em></p>
<p><em>Maj: Well obviously.</em></p>
<p><em>Ape: Just be happy he followed the rules of the draft. Woody Allen is a sound pick though. </p>
<p>Ufford: Everyone gives him a free pass because of Annie Hall and whatever he did 30 years ago.  He sucks.  And you can tell Leitch that, too.</p>
<p>Drew: Suddenly, Jack&#8217;s character loves Puccini operas and old typewriters</em></p>
<p><em>Maj: Bastards.</em></p>
<p><em>Drew: Punter selects Antarctica</em></p>
<p><b>Punte- <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000033/">Alfred Hitchcock</a></b></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/hitchcock.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/hitchcock.jpg" alt="" title="hitchcock" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12194" /></a></center></p>
<p>Hehe, &#8220;cock.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hitchcock smartened the genre of film and revolutionized the medium, plus he was able to scare the shit out of people in his day without resorting to excessive gore. But he knew how to create a scene and tell complex stories, which makes him the ideal candidate for telling this asshole&#8217;s tale. </p>
<p><em>Maj: Is his dick coming out of his stomach? it&#8217;s like the plague draft all over again!</p>
<p>Punte: No, it&#8217;s just super long.</em></p>
<p><b>Ufford: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0442109/">Charlie Kaufman</a></b></p>
<p>Because not only would the movie be about me, but it would be about the process of trying to make a movie about me, starring alternate realities of me, and the alternate realities of me are gonna be way more interesting than the real me.  Then there&#8217;d be eels, and probably a chimpanzee.  That&#8217;s a good movie right there.</p>
<p><em>Maj: I can&#8217;t wait for Ufford&#8217;s version of the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ur3CQE8xB3c&#038;eurl=http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl=en&#038;safe=off&#038;client=firefox-a&#038;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&#038;hs=">Malkovich scene</a>. </em></p>
<p><b>Ape- <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000040/">Stanley Kubrick</a></b></p>
<p>Not giving him much to work with, but he&#8217;ll make it haunting and psychological.</p>
<p><b>Ape- <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0154665/">Paddy Chayefsky</a></b></p>
<p>My movie&#8217;s gonna be some well-written shit.</p>
<p><em>Drew: Ape in the newsroom: &#8220;I&#8217;m mad as hell, and I&#8217;m not gonna take it anymore!!!&#8221;</em></p>

<p>Was I surprised Drew didn&#8217;t take him? Oh yeah. Will I take him now? You bet your ass. Is he gonna make the Tunison movie chock-full of big-tittied girls and car chases and other sensational shit that never happened to me? Honey, you can take it to the bank.</p>
<p><em>Drew: Baby, that&#8217;s a good pick!</em></p>
<p><em>Maj: He was my only honorable mention.</em></p>
<p>And that&#8217;s all for us. Pick your own writer/director/producer (or makeup guy!) in the comments. Wait ten picks in between selections or we make you watch Michael Bay&#8217;s <em>Pearl Harbor</em>. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/thewrestler.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/thewrestler.jpg" alt="" title="thewrestler" width="500" height="335" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11795" /></a></center></p>
<p>I tried watching Monday Night RAW this week and I couldn&#8217;t get through a half hour of the thing. I stopped watching wrestling after high school and it certainly wasn&#8217;t because I did any growing up. Wrasslin&#8217; got shitty in a hurry when Vince McMahon bought everybody out. But we recall the good days fondly, so we did a draft of which wrestler we&#8217;d most like to be.</p>
<p>The rules, according to Punte: &#8220;You are drafting a professional wrestler to emulate in the ring, as well as in life. Your selection must be involved or have been involved in a relatively prominent nationwide wrestling promotion. No more than one incarnation of the same wrestler may be selected (eg: you can draft Terry Taylor, or the Red Rooster, but not both, and once one is gone, so is the other).&#8221;</p>
<p>There goes my Kane/Fake Diesel/Issac Yankem, DDS, sweep!</p>
<p>The line-up, snake-order as always.</p>
<p>1. Maj<br />
2. Ape<br />
3. Flub<br />
4. Drew<br />
5. PUNTE</p>
<p>Ufford abstained, claiming that he&#8217;s always hated pro wrestling, so we gave him John Cena because of his tour de force performance in The Marine.</p>
<p>JUST RING THE DAMN BELL ALREADY!<br />
<span id="more-11794"></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Unsilent Majority &#8212; Bret Hart</strong></p>
<p><center><object width="512" height="296"><param name="movie" value="http://www.hulu.com/embed/iOob4VgxVAlD9ApbJWWUJg"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.hulu.com/embed/iOob4VgxVAlD9ApbJWWUJg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true"  width="512" height="296"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>&#8220;The Excellence of Execution was always my favorite back in the day, even if he gave his glasses to that shit-eating kid sitting a couple of seats down. He&#8217;s the best technical wrestler ever, and he made hating Vince McMahon cool long before Stone Cold&#8217;s arrival. Plus I&#8217;m a total sucker for a man in pink. RAWR!&#8221;</p>
<p>flubby: &#8220;Terrible pick. You can&#8217;t be the best of all time if you spent most of your career as a tag team wrestler&#8230; russian leg sweep, elbow off second rope, sharpshooter zzzzzzzzz&#8221;</p>
<p>Maj: &#8220;You have no class, go watch the Montreal Screwjob again.&#8221;</p>
<p>flubby: &#8220;McMahon had to do that because Hart refused to lose a fake fight in his home country&#8230; not his hometown mind you, his home country.&#8221;</p>
<p>Maj: &#8220;McMahon screwed Hart because he was going to leave for WCW. As for spending &#8220;most of his career&#8221; as a tag team wrestler, he won the heavyweight title five times.&#8221;</p>
<p>Maj: &#8220;I haven&#8217;t felt like this big a nerd in a VERY long time.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>2. Christmas Ape &#8212; Mick Foley</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Wanted to take The Rock or Hogan here for the crossover celebrity possibilities, but Mick wins for being a legitimately cool guy with an amazing legacy and backstory. Plus, Hogan is a boring-as-fuck wrestler, whereas Foley will give you a couple amazing falls in any given match. And the Hell in the Cell at King of the Ring 1998 is one of my favorite matches ever. Also, he&#8217;s written a few bestsellers, which helps on the money/respectability end.&#8221;</p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0qFWaCoe78k&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0qFWaCoe78k&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p><strong>3. flubby &#8212; Ric Flair</strong></p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/woo.gif"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/woo.gif" alt="" title="woo" width="250" height="197" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11796" /></a></center></p>
<p>&#8220;Best talker, best in the ring, best gimmick. Flair wasn&#8217;t just a star himself, but he could turn bums like Sting and Lex Luger into stars&#8230;. whereas Brett Hart had a brief run as WWE champ when the company was in the crapper, Flair carried an entire confederacy of wrestling organizations on his back for the better part of two decades&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Maj: &#8220;Sting&#8217;s a bum? Maybe you just hate the sharp-shooter.&#8221;</p>
<p>flubby: &#8220;He&#8217;s the fucking worst.&#8221;</p>
<p>Punte: &#8220;Seriously, anybody that was in WCW that was worth a shit wound up in WWE at some point.&#8221;</p>
<p>Maj: &#8220;I mean I certainly don&#8217;t have him at the top of my list, but that&#8217;s harsh.&#8221;  </p>
<p>flubby: &#8220;Brett Hart is good, I just think you&#8217;ve rated him too highly.  Sting on the other hand is just boring.  Here&#8217;s every Sting storyline ever: can Sting trust this guy?  Answer: No.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>4. Big Daddy <strike>Cool Diesel</strike>Drew &#8212; Macho Man Randy Savage</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Loved his nickname.  Loved his entrance.  Loved his voice.  And when he won the WWF title in that tourney way back, he spontaneously won the crowd over despite being a wife beater.</p>
<p>I love the guy.&#8221;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s true. Drew was deeply offended when Macho Man was left off <a href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/football/pro/dolphins/dp-top10.wrestlers.pg.0109,0,2498588.photogallery">this list</a> from last month. </p>
<p>True story: I only knew of Pomp &#038; Circumstance as Macho Man&#8217;s theme until I was 15. I was a dumb kid.</p>

<p><strong>5. Monday Morning Punter &#8212; The Undertaker</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;The guy&#8217;s been around forever. He&#8217;s an amazing athlete for his size, coupled with a gimmick that fans love almost as much as insiders claim it might have hindered his career. But when the lights in the arena went out and you heard the big bell ring, he lived up to the hype.  He took the character created for him and, like so many of his opponents, made it bend to his will.&#8221;  </p>
<p><font size="4"><strong>Round 2</strong></font></p>
<p><strong>6. Monday Morning Punter &#8212; Hulk Hogan</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Technically dreadful, stylistically uninspired, and bald. But he was the flint that helped spark America&#8217;s wrestling craze in the 1980s. To date he&#8217;s the only wrestler that has made the cover of Sports Illustrated. He&#8217;s the reason we&#8217;re having this stupid draft to begin with, because without the Hulkster and his performance-enhanced pythons, we would have bought a lot more LEGOs.&#8221; </p>
<p><strong>7. Drew &#8212; Ricky Steamboat</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Try fucking with this alligator, BITCH&#8221;</p>
<p><center><a href="http://kissingsuzykolber.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/steamboat.jpg"><img src="http://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/steamboat.jpg" alt="" title="steamboat" width="468" height="382" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11800" /></a></center></p>
<p><strong>8. flubby &#8212; Abdullah the Butcher </strong></p>
<p>&#8220;How great is it to be Abdullah?  He&#8217;s remained a fixture in the business for decades even though he doesn&#8217;t do interviews and doesn&#8217;t even stay in shape.  Actually, he doesn&#8217;t even actually wrestle at all.  He usual waddles to the ring, where he stands flat footed and gasping for breath until he starts gouging  his opponent with a dinner fork for about ten minutes, then he call it a night. The guy is in his 70&#8217;s and weights over 400 pounds, he shouldn&#8217;t be outside of Dick Gregory&#8217;s eyesight let alone still wrestling.  I went to his bbq/soul food restaurant in Atlanta once.  Unfortunately, Abdullah was on road.  But I made sure to steal a fork.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>9. Ape &#8212; The Rock</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Nonpareil mic skills, the most crossover fame of any wrestler who isn&#8217;t Hogan while being an actually respectable movie actor and he&#8217;s good in the ring. Also, he played defensive tackle for The U on a national championship team, which gives him at least some relevance to this site.&#8221;</p>

<p><strong>10. Maj &#8212; &#8220;Superfly&#8221; Jimmy Snuka</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;One of the original high flyers, he was always one of the most entertaining guys in the (fake) sport. &#8221;</p>
<p><font size="4">Round 3</font></p>
<p><strong>11. Maj &#8212; Rey Mysterio Jr.</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Just pure fucking awesomeness. He can do just about anything you can imagine in and out of the ring, he&#8217;s not a roided up freak-show, and he&#8217;s had a long and diverse career. Shit, he was a part of Master P&#8217;s No Limit Soldiers and the Filthy Animals.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>12. Ape &#8212; Chris Jericho</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Brother just knows how to punch a bitch.&#8221;</p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Zx6exr7yVws&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Zx6exr7yVws&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>/waits for Punter to take Chris Benoit </p>
<p><strong>13. flubby &#8212; &#8220;The Million Dollar Man&#8221; Ted DiBiase.  </strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe the greatest heel in WWF/WWE history.&#8221;   </p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/n77-sEPa-rw&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/n77-sEPa-rw&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p><strong>14. Drew &#8212; Jesse &#8220;The Body&#8221; Ventura</strong></p>
<p>Not much in the ring.  But he was a wizard with the mic, and I loved him when he broadcast with Gorilla Monsoon. </p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t trust that Chico Santana, Gorilla.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;It&#8217;s Tito.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Looks like a Chico to me.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Oh, WILL YOU STOP?&#8221;</p>
<p>Plus I get to make two of the best Arnold flicks ever, AND I can run the state of Minnesota and retroactively get the Vikes that Anoka stadium deal.</p>
<p><strong>15. Punte</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;And with the last pick, I select&#8211;</p>
