Bad Boys Fantasy Draft?

[HoustonRaven]

My friends and I do a Bad Boys Fantasy Draft every year and I wanted to see if the board was interested in doing the same.

The premise is simple (and kind of sad ... but kind of fun). You "draft" players / teams to your team and you get points when they are arrested for various infractions of the law.

For example, if you had drafted the Giants as your NFL team, you'd have some points this morning thanks to Diehl getting locked up for DUI. Each alleged crime carries a point value. DUI's get 2 points, various misdemeanors get 5, felonies get you 7. If the players gets convicted of their respective crimes, you get an extra point. If you had picked Diehl as your player, you get both the team and the player points.

We can do it for fun or for a winner-take-all prize -- up to you all. We do it in 7 rounds. Each player getting one pro sports player from the NFL, NBA and MLB and one team from each mentioned league. The last spot is the "celebrity" spot. You can add anyone who is considered famous. It could be a politician, a Hollywood type, or even another sports star.

The length of the season is open. We can make it from now until the final second of the Super Bowl to keep it simple.

Any takers?

Quick question: Can we add a provision for points for substance abuse (incl. steroids) etc?

lol cincy would be a good option.

Sure.

Testing positive for PED's gets you 3 points.

How about team suspensions? Things that don't necessarily fall within the realm of breaking the law, but are obvious team violations (i.e. Titus Young being suspended for laying the smack down on Louis Delmas)?

You'd think the Lions would be a ferocious tough team with the way their players act outside of football, but they are a fancy explosive team with a crappy defense, and no run game to speak of!

I like it.

Let's make them 2 points.

The Lions and Bengals will be 1 and 2 in the draft for sure.

Teams you wanna stay away from:

Green Bay
New England
Baltimore
Pittsburgh
San Francisco
Houston

Basically any well run disciplined team is a big no.

It's all about arrests.

Pittsburgh has the highest number of player arrests since 2004.

The NBA will ripe for a top pick in the draft me thinks. Damnit just gave away part of my strategy.

If you had the Bengals, you'd have more points this morning.
