21st Century Sports Draft (1 Viewer)

[timschochet]

People keep asking me to start a new draft, so I though this would be a fun one if anyone's interested. We would draft from the following categories, 21st century only (beginning in the year 2000 through today)

BASEBALL

Best Team (one year)

Best power hitter

Best hitter for average

Outfielder

Infielder

Starting Pitcher

Relief Pitcher

Manager

FOOTBALL

Best team (1 year)

Quarterback

Running Back

Wide Receiver

Tight End

Offensive Lineman

Defensive Lineman

Linebacker

Secondary

Head Coach

BASKETBALL

Best Team (1 year)

Center

Forward

Guard

Head Coach

COLLEGE SPORTS

Best football team

Best football player, offensive

Best football player, defensive

Football head coach

Best basketball team

That's 36 categories, these are subject to change. If we do this, we need 15-20 drafters, plus we also need judges. Anyone interested?

Yeah, it's because I don't follow it, and don't know enough even to create categories. If there is enough interest by people such as yourself who love hockey, then by all means we'd add as many categories for it as drafters desire.

 

[RoxSolid]

In...this would be my first draft, how extensive is it on the weekends?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

well, I doubt I'll be drafting but seems like it would be easy enough to do some or all of these:

best team (one year)

best forward

best defenseman

best goalie

best coach

best black player

Not at all. The clock shuts down on weekends.

OK, if those who actually want to draft are interested in this, we'll do it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Who were the people who asked for more drafts

 

[timschochet]

Who were the people who asked for more drafts

Frosticilus for one, and every once in a while I get a PM wanting to know when's the next draft going to be.

If not enough people are interested, It's cool. Thought it would be a fun time waster is all.

 

[Doug B]

I'm in for this one. Can take or leave the hockey categories.

...

Still think that Regional Sports draft was a great idea unfulfilled. Maybe for the near future.

 

[hagmania]

Holy balls that's a lot of categories. In for the first 4 weeks until it dies

 

[hagmania]

Men's and Women's Tennis Player both, imo

Best Football Team/Player

What about Biggest Acquisition? Trade, FA signing, Loan

 

[Doug B]

What about Biggest Acquisition? Trade, FA signing, Loan

Second this ... great call.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Cross-sport category suggestions:

Best Game/Match

Best Trade

Most Dominant Athlete (could separate into team and individual sports, or just one pick)

Best International Competition Moment

Greatest Upset

Most Inspirational Athlete

Worst Injury

Worst Police Blotter Entry

Worst Choke

Worst Contract

Worst Coach

Worst Dooshbag

 

[timschochet]

I like a lot of these. But it may be too many categories. Let's see how many people are interested.

Can probably trim the fat on the individual big league players to be honest.

Baseball:

Best Player (Hitting)

Best Player (Fielding)

Best Player (Pitcher)

Football:

Best QB

Best Player (Offense, non-QB)

Best Player (Defense)

Another cross-sport category: Best Championship Game

1 hockey, 0 soccer sounds about right to me

cut the fat off the single sport categories to maybe 5 at most each, include the cross-sports categories and add some Olympians.

If you take these recommendations, I'm in.

[timschochet]

You guys have a lot of good suggestions but we need to have more drafters before proceeding.

Biggest Scandal

 

[BobbyLayne]

Hottest GF

Toughest call is picking which one for Jeter

Hottest MILF four major team sports

Also, Futbol. MLS has an amazing fan base in KC, Portland, Seattle, et al.

Probably should have a nod to PEDs in a category as well. It's the defining characteristic of the Bud Selig era. Probably worse in the NFL but they never tested for HGH.

Scandal (lump PED in there?) - man, that's a long list.

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

Way too many US spots/sports.

At least Ice Hockey is a truly international sport.

No Cricket, Aussie Rules or even Soccer FFS

Cut the Basketball, Football, Baseball and College categories in half and I may consider it.

 

[timschochet]

Right now there's like 3 people who have joined up, so this draft ain't happening. Maybe if more people join I'll consider some of the other categories.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I'll join if there's no baseball.

 

[Limp Ditka]

I'll join if there's no baseball.

best LOOGY

I think in hockey they're called dark guys
