*golf clap*  Well played.

Thank you, thank you. There are enough Comic Book nerds on here that I thought this one would get its due.

Oddly, I don't even read comic books - the only one I've read in the last 5 years is Watchmen.  I just like going to Wikipedia when I'm bored and catching up on storylines.

Team HDM
Cartoon Character: Eric Cartman
Actor: Abe Vigoda
Government Leader: Teddy Bleeping Roosevelt!
Athlete:
Villain:Darth Vader
Fictional Character:
Scientist:
Super Hero:
Musician:
Wild Card:



I choose one of the most diabolical minds of our generation. A person who can mold minds and twist anything to his, and now my team's benefit. There are those that are tougher then this character, but no one can out think him when personal gain is on the line. Anyone who disagrees should watch "Scott Tenorman Must Die."

Eric Cartman is my selection.

"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."

With his 4th rd pick, fairweatherfan selects:



Nikola Tesla, Scientist.

Maybe one of the most underrated scientific innovators in history, he revolutionized the fields of electrical engineering and magnetism.  Tesla is credited with inventing the radio and Alternating Current electric power, and making substantial contributions to fields as diverse as nuclear physics, robotics, ballistics and computer science.  Also gave burntout hippies something to stare at at Burning Man by inventing the Tesla Coil (pictured above). With nearly unlimited funds (Batman) and technology (Brainiac) who knows what he’ll cook up for Team Name TBD.

Closest basketball equivalent:  These get harder with every pick so I’m just gonna say Doug Moe.


Cartoon Character:
Actor:
Government Leader: Alexander the Great 
Athlete:
Villain: Brainiac
Fictional Character:
Scientist: Nikola Tesla
Super Hero: Batman
Musician:
Wild Card:


PS: Redz - I'll be out of town this weekend; I'll probably pop in from time to time and make my picks, but til Sunday if you wanna cut my pick window down to a half-hour or so it'll probably speed things up for everybody else.
