Just to clarify Larry.
The football players are playing both ways I understand but lets I say I want to use Deion Sanders at CB/WR can he also be my kick/punt returner? |

Nope. The Special Teams categories were included so all 13 of your picks would have a position.

3.4 Bob Gibson, Los Angeles Lettermen, Baseball, Retired
Hall of Fame pitcher, one of the best at that position ever. He went to Creighton on a basketball scholarship and went on to play for the Harlem Globetrotters, earning the nickname "Bullet" for his thunderous dunks. Hank Aaron once said about him, "'Don't dig in against Bob Gibson, he'll knock you down. He'd knock down his own grandmother if she dared to challenge him. Don't stare at him, don't smile at him, don't talk to him. He doesn't like it. If you happen to hit a home run, don't run too slow, don't run too fast. If you happen to want to celebrate, get in the tunnel first. And if he hits you, don't charge the mound, because he's a Gold Glove boxer.'" This is the kind of guy I want anchoring my pitching staff!!! |

3.5 Dwight Howard, West Hollywood Stars, Basketball. Another current player. We need a big man, and Howard is about the most athletic around. He's going to block like 18 field goals and probably lead the league in headers.

3.6 Charlie Ward, Wake Forest Cougars, Football, Retired
Heisman winning QB, 11 year career as a point guard in the NBA, and he was drafted as a pitcher by Milwaukee in 1993 and the Yankees in 1994. I'd say more but I'm too annoyed that I didn't land Bob Gibson |

Good movement after the delay. I'll be back on around 11AM.

Oh, that's good to know for people that were other positions, but also had the ability to hit. It looks like I still have a way to go till my next pick. I'll check again after work (about 4:30-5 pm). And I love the Charlie Ward pick...was hoping he'd slip. |

ARGH! I was SURE he'd be around for my 3rd round pick. I almost went with him at 2.1, but didn't want to go Other in my first two picks.

i just woke up so maybe i'm not processing this but... most teams (i think) are going to end up with 1 maybe 2 guys that are legitimate pitchers the rest are going to be guys with the best arms. so your staff looks like: P P/3b P/RF P/LF CL/SS so your staff would rotate in the field. right? or no? |

You can say that Pitcher A is going to hit in all games, and that he will play 3b, 2b, and SS during the games he is hitting. But you still have to slot someone at 3B, 2B, and SS and they will be the regular starters at those positions.

3.10 Rickey Henderson, Baseball, Retired
One of the fastest and most durable players to play the game. He should translate well and has experience as a superstar RB in HS. 4.1 Terrell Owens, Football, Active Was a bit jealous at Subby grabbing Moss and Bolt, but I take TO here for similar reasons to Moss. Not only is he fast, but he's big. He played Basketball in College and should be able to excel at all of the sports.

4.3 rafer johnson, other retired
ohnson won the silver medal, despite an injured knee, in the 1956 Olympic decathlon. Four years later, he won the the gold medal in Rome, in a thrilling finish against his friend and training partner C.K. Yang. Back in 1960, the Olympic gold in the decathlon really meant you were the world's greatest athlete. And Yang, a former world record holder, was incredibly tough competition. But we need more to bolster Rafer's case for this list. He ran for nine yards a carry in high school, which earned him a football scholarship offer from UCLA. This he turned down, because his eyes were already on the decathlon, in which he set a world record as a college freshman. While a prep, he also excelled in basketball, and even though his eyes were clearly on the track and field prize, he did play hoops for UCLA -- under John Wooden. |

Nehemiah would have to count as Football.
If this affects your pick, I'll let you change it.

For clarification on that rule:
If an athlete played in the regular season or postseason of college or pro level Football, Soccer, Basketball, or Baseball, then he cannot be selected as an "Other".

4.7 Dwyane Wade, Los Angeles Lettermen, Basketball, Active
One of the 3 best players in the NBA, Dwyane is one of the very best athletes in the NBA. He is amazing with the ball in his hands, a natural born ball carrier. He is 6'4" and 212lbs of pure fast-twitch muscle. He played cornerback and wide receiver in high school, and no one can question his explosive athleticism. |

4.10 Randy Johnson, Overwrought Message Board Enthusiasts, Retired, Baseball
Big Unit is one of the greatest starting pitchers in league history plus he's tall. His elbows are ridiculously sharp and he's probably a dirty player when given the chance. Triple word score!

5.3 Brian Jordan, Canton Raiders, Baseball, Retired
All star outfielder and likely would have been an all pro safety had he stuck with the NFL. Pairing him up with Deion Sanders again gives me a secondary that even Peyton Manning might have problems with. |
