Fabulous. Here is my next pick, then. It is a dangerous beast indeed - in Europe, it causes mass fleeing (and not just by the French!) since it is the largest European land animal. I give you (distinct from the American variety) The European Bison .
In addition, it is seriously diseased, which I assume is why it dropped so far. Take note of the results of said disease:
"The disease is characterized by a chronic necrotising inflammation of the penis"
Yes.... fear the Bison, gentlemen. Hide your women and your children. The Bison Cometh!

I could no longer roam the sidelines, gentlemen. The calling of the game was too much. My agent negotiated a nice deal...and I am back where I belong.In related news...the Food Chain Dominators have completed negotiations with new GM Sonny Lubick Bobblehead Doll.Welcome aboard the future League Champs!Sonny is now an authorized vicious creature selector in my absence. Hopefully this may prevent possible problems during the day, when I am frequently unable to access a computer. He has our next selection ready, if it is necessary tonight.
May the Deadliest team win. 
Remember when Elway went up to South Dakota, and the Sturgis Biker Rally, to get Schlereth for one more ring?I am the Mark Schlereth of the Deadly Animal Draft.

As an objective lurker, I think the fossa should get you deep into the playoffs. Even as an early round pick, it seems like the SOD.

I must qualify this, however. Unless Tamara jm3464 (tamarus jimus) has medusa-like qualities, this pick levels the playing field a bit.

I had to skip ahead after reading the various pros/cons of the blue whale pick so I may have missed some of it's possible tactics.But, I'm pretty sure this sucker could start swimming in circles and create a whirlpool that would suck down and destroy all the other water creatures. The Sperm would have a chance of survival, but all the other water animals would get pretty messed up. While the others are in their dizzy state the big blue would swallow and or blunt force trauma the other into oblivion.This only applies if the battlefield/pool is large enough for said whirlpool and all the creatures are in the same pool/ocean. I saw this scenario played out in an episode of Pokemon and it was not pretty. You guys should study Ash Kechums prowess in mythical creature battles as a primer. Lot's to learn from that kid.

ANNOUNCEMENTI have been reviewing the draft and teams, as well as looking closely at owner comments and behavior. It is time for me to announce the "Smile and Take it Like a Man Award." The STLMA is the most prestigous offered by this or any other organization.First runner-up is Sandbagger. He has fought thru a dunderheaded mistake and kept laughing at my jokes. He receives an extra 6th round choice. He now picks at 6.5 and 6.5a, while forfeiting his pick at 8.5.The hand-down winner of the award has suffered thru a viscous first round double-penalty. And while he #####ed a little, he has never moaned. So I award him the prestigous STLMNA. And with this award is an additional 5th round selection. This selection will be awarded at position 5.8a and his pick at 8.9 will be re-claimed.Congrats to everyone for making this thing a gas. I really had my doubts whether or not this thing would fly, but you guys made it happen.We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming

Ahh..I meant to include the giant squid in the list of possible survivors of the whirlpool attack. I was thinking of what would happen to the poor jelly fish and croc/gators caught in destruction. The squid is pretty big, but when that whale get's moving it better have a good grip on it for the ride. If squiddy get's bucked off he's toast.Don't discount the Pokemon mind. I'll be a voter and really it's all I can think of when I picture this death match happening.

If he got sucked in it would be much like Superman circling the earth to go back in time to save Lois Lane. If he did it long enough only the most ancient critter would win. Advantage there goes to the Croc/Gators. Atleast their ancestors.

Ladies and Gents, I present to you pick 5.04 for pgreenfan. My initial examination of pgreen's squad noted the following qualities: size (cape buffalo and bull shark), speed (peregrine falcon) and a strong seawater presence (bull shark and beaked sea snake).
This team will be formidable, but lacks a wily, aggressive player who prefers to take advantage of opportunities presented to him.
Therefore, I have selected the Black Spitting Cobra.
Naja nigricollis woodi is regarded as perhaps the most aggressive snake in Africa. Though not as poisonous as some of his cousins, the Black Spitting Cobra can spit an extremely toxic venom very accurately at a distance of 8 feet, rendering its victim BLIND.

and
When talking about a cage match, you need a player on your squad that knows how to behave when cornered. What will a Blue Whale do? It will probably ask itself how in the hell it got into this mess. What will the Black Spitting Cobra do? It will tell itself that if it wants to get out of this thing alive, it better start whipping some $#(.I hope pgreen concurs.

Ok, my turn.
I figured I’d jump on the birdwagon and take the last of the big, mean, dangerous, flightless (read: heavy) birds.
Behold, the GREATER RHEA (Rhea americana).
The rheas are a South American cousin of the ostrich and they're about the same size as an emu, that is, about 6 feet tall and weighing around 150 pounds.
A rhea has a spur at its heel that looks like a smaller version of the horn on a cow. The rhea can kick with a force of 800 pounds per square inch, and an adult rhea has little to fear from any predator except man. It can also run at about 35-40 miles per hour (60 kph).
A worthy foe, and an excellent choice to fulfill the bird requirement.
If you're going to have a bird, it may as well kick at 800 pounds per square inch with a horn.

I would have taken this snake before any of the other venomous snakes taken.
We all know that as soon as Jimmy "the Mouth of the South" Hart ever gave Greg "the Hammer" Valentine some powder to throw in the eyes of his opponent, the match was as good as over.Blinding your enemy before htye are able to lay a paw on you gives you a great advantage.

All Pokemon and Superman talk aside I have to think the whirlpool is it's only hope.I stumbled on this little story while looking for any type of blue whale attack.Advantage Orca
