If they remade ProStars, who should be in it?

I might return to this thread later and do some "for fun" type of things, but basically, if you were going from 3 different sports, you'd go NFL, MLB, and NBA. Hockey registers, in the American general populace somewhere between lower rung arena league football and jousting. C'mon. Especially if it's a major network, no one is casting anyone from hockey. Marketability and a wide built-in audience. There's only one hockey player in history who had that, and he was in the original.

For the NFL, you'd pretty much have to be Tom Brady or Peyton Manning.

Baseball-wise, Derek Jeter would probably be choice #1. Alex Rodriguez would seem to be a logical choice, but seemingly no one likes him, not even fans of his own team.

NBA... Shaquille O'Neal or LeBron James.

I would pick Tom Brady, Manny Ramirez, and Shaq right now (but I would pick Greg Oden if he ever reaches his basketball potential, he seems to have a great personality.)

You'd have to assume that some marketing considerations would come into play, though. If such a show were on NBC, for example, they'd almost certainly include a hockey player -- Sidney Crosby would be my guess -- since the network has some broadcasting rights for NHL games. It's sort of like sports-related product placement.

Let's see....if we were to teach kids anything, it'd have to be...

- Evgeni Malkin....you can be ugly as hell and still get a cartoon!

- Maurice Clarett....be a complete failure, get a cartoon!

- Pat Burrell...you can stirke out every at bat, but so long as you look awesome swinging and missing, you can be in a cartoon

... and let's not forget the cereal...

The cereal was the only thing I liked. I wasn't fond of the show but the cereal was awesome...even if it tasted suspiciously similar to Cheerios.
