BTW for clarification, I thought of this last night and was waiting all day to post it and then posted it. When I returned to the thread is when I first saw Redz post with the De Niro warning. Heck, when that was posting I was still cutting and pasting LeBron's picture to my post.

Just didn't want anyone to think that I just read Redz post and posted my choice.

Philosopher: Rene Descartes.

You may know this famed philosopher (and mathematician) for his famous quote "Cogito Ergo Sum" translated to "I think; therefore, I am." 

Fact:  What you may not have known is that famous quote is typically abbreviated.  He was actually originally quoted in full as saying (in English):  "I think; therefore, I am afraid of Chuck Norris."

The two are reportedly very happy to be teaming up together.  Descartes now can sleep in peace.

Philosopher:  Rene Descartes
Wild Card:  Chuck Norris

He's also a pilot. Roger Murdock.

However, me thinks misha is running the perilous line of a man who has 1 too many lakers on his team. If he selects Rick Fox or Brian Shaw as his former Celtic, he guarantees the most villainous award.
Rick Fox is a good idea for the 'Celtic' category :D

Iker Casillas, Giacinto Facchetti, Alessandro Nesta, Matthias Sammer, Javier Zanetti, Lothar Matthäus (c), Xavi, Zico, Maradona, Roberto Baggio, Ferenc Puskas, Karl Heinz Rummenigge

lol...yeh, the timing on that was funny!

Obviously, there aren't a heck of a lot of rules here, so go with King James and the shame that having him as your monarch entails  ;D
Yup

So is it passed my time or do I have to wait for the other guys?

My time usually comes around 9 at night.
