  • Yup
In response to  Casperian's 1st round pick - Lucifer "The Devil" Satan, Villain

I choose - God.

God is most often conceived of as the supernatural creator and overseer of the universe. Theologians have ascribed a variety of attributes to the many different conceptions of God. The most common among these include omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, omnibenevolence (perfect goodness), divine simplicity, and eternal and necessary existence.

Wild Card pick 

Leave it to SSFan to pick this one!  I believe it was discussed on the first page or two...Since there are so many different accepted versions of God, I think we need a specific one.  Then again, I generalized Silver Age Super Man as plain old Super Man.  If we were to encompass the idea of all gods being God, then we would have to go back and divvy up some of the mythological gods that have already been covered.

I've got to say, give us a specific god, or no god for the purposes of our game.
Yup

I choose - God.

The Devil is not impressed.
God is neither funny nor a world conqueror...and Basketball belongs to the Devil, just ask David Stern, he sold it to him.

So, God is allowed, Michael Jordan is a cartoon character, but Rocky is not an athlete... *cough*

There are many great options left for musician, even some very good NBA players.
But what my team really lacks is a Scalabrine-stopper. A tall red-head locker-room presence who can hit the outside-joke.

With the 6th-round pick of the Ultimate Draft, I select:

Conan O`Brien, Musician

In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

What do you mean God isn't funny? 

Sure, the Morgan Freeman version left a little to be desired,
but the George Burns version was hysterical!!   ;)

Smart? Please. And not in some fake way. Evil? Well he's got a certain moral polarity to him. I wouldn't call him evil, but I also wouldn't call him good. He's creepy as the day is long though. Pretty physically fit for an older gentleman. He also ate his sister.
