Time Magazine Person of the Year fantasy draft

By Rick Morris

Our beloved FDH New York Bureau came up with a tremendous twist on fantasy sports games -- which we at FDH are of course not shy about applying to areas outside of sports. On last week's 82nd edition of THE FDH LOUNGE on SportsTalkNetwork.com (Wednesdays 7-10 PM EDT), we held a Time Magazine Person of the Year fantasy draft: three-round standard serpentine draft with four owners, with the winner of course being the person who guesses the awardee. Here's how it went:

ROUND ONE
1 Mike LaGuardia: Michael Jackson
2 The FDH New York Bureau Steve Cirvello: Cap'n Sully
3 Ryan Isley: Oprah Winfrey
4 Rick Morris: President Obama

ROUND TWO
1 Rick Morris: The Field (all undrafted possibilities)
2 Ryan Isley: Taylor Swift
3 The FDH New York Bureau Steve Cirvello: The top Twitter executives (collectively)
4 Mike LaGuardia: Bernie Madoff

ROUND THREE
1 Mike LaGuardia: Lil' Wayne
2 The FDH New York Bureau Steve Cirvello: Sarah Palin
3 Ryan Isley: Usain Bolt
4 Rick Morris: Ben Bernanke
