We could have an 80's draft and you could still pick Maldini, Cannavaro and Pirlo

I mean ever.

Italian wines are better then French wines. By far.

Just sayin....

No wonder everyone makes fun of us. That's the lamest trash talking...ever.

and to make things a little more interesting for me I'll also throw in a quota for at least 1 American and to make things a little more interesting for you all 1 Turk per team...

To clarify everyone will have to have 1 American and 1 Turk on their team. The player can either be an American/Turk or someone who has played in America/Turkey for at least 3 years.

The golden rule: Anyone who picks a player that has played for Fenerbahce (a.k.a. the sewerbirds) will be ass raped by 1001 monkeys while being fed warm horse****e and then automatically disqualified, all the while bringing great shame to themselves, their families and their country.

The scope will be 2000 to 2010 both inclusive, a player must have played at least 3 years between those years to be eligible. Any ineligible picks and the draft will move on, those that picked the ineligible players will pick again at the end of the draft, sort of like a supplemental draft.


LOL, so this is how it feels to sell carpets to American tourists in the Covered Bazaar,


All right then the latest roster and the numbers:

Raoul - Can't read instructions or other posts so I'm assigning him 10
Turk
Paulie - 4
Frostlich - You get one more chance mate or you'll be like the frenchie.
Woody - 0
Royal - 8
Bay Ridge Jet - 2
Batman - 6
Devs Jets Yanks - 9

If we can get the number from Frostlich I can assig...erm...calculate the draft order. and Bit, you in or out?

Like the idea of 1 American and 1 Turk being mandatory.

I guess I would prefer 2000's because it would make me seem slightly less clueless, but I'm game for either.

Having to pick 1 American and 1 Turk is rough. How am I going to find a good Turkish player?

[frostlich]

I'll go with 5. Final answer. Lock me in.

[DevsJetsYanks88]

Just to make sure before I mull over my selection, are we doing 90's or 2000's?

2000's

The scope will be 1999-2000 season to 2009-2010 season (both inclusive), a player must have played at least 3 years between those years to be eligible. Any ineligible picks and the draft will move on, those that picked the ineligible players will pick again at the end of the draft, sort of like a supplemental draft.



good luck

I have to say, as far as Americans go, I'm curious what the general feel of Landon Donovan is.

I have no idea how he is seen overseas. Until this season, he was inarguably the best US field player of the last decade and in first trip to UK, he made a significant impact, scoring 2 goals and adding 3 assists in 10 games, and helping Everton kick start a season that started terribly before he arrived.

Also he is the face of US soccer, by virtue of his success and, of course, the goal against Algeria.

Nice pick Dev....now who counters with Materazzi?
ok...had to get that out of the way first.
