I've got a very good suggestion for a sheep, especially in this category.



The video was made in 2006, Kerlon was only 18 at the time. He won Golden Ball at the U17 South American Youth Championship when he was 16.

The description of the video is this: "The next star of football will be Kerlon. Remember his name cos you'll be hearing it in 2 or 3 years."
 
I was going to bring him up for the first sheep :lol: Completely forgot to actually type him in.

He's most definitely a sheep.
 
Wow I'm on such a terrible streak I can't catch a break here! And I just lost some cash in poker :lol:

Bloody crappy

I know who my next pick is, sending in a minute, if he's been picked by now I will be shocked because for this is a really solid but safe pick
 
Glad I went through! Wasn't trying to rush MJJ, just wanted him (and all of you) to be aware I would be gone for a while soon so no point waiting.

Delighted with my man :drool:

Seal dribbling his way past defenders :drool:
He used to be very talented, if you look past the novelty factor. But he left for Europe too soon, got many injuries, and is currently a bit chubby I think. Real shame though, he was a young star. He had so much hype.
 
I'm sure crappy will be back in a couple of hours or so, in the last draft he would've been on in this period.
 
Kerlon as a sheep? Not sure, what if people just assume he is some great Brazilian?

Liam Miller qualifies, or Andriy Voronin, Henri Camara, etc. Where available I'd rather more familiar players. That said, crappy/vivaj could do with some slack so, why not?
 
Sorry mate, but I had to go for him this early, because he's just to perfect in Team German Shepard, don't you think :).

:lol:

That tops this:

as the most terrifying image in draft history.

For some reason, Di Livio was the first player I thought of when I saw the full draft criteria. A fine pick, and well done to TITO for getting him. Pippa is starting to look unbeatable here. I think I know what striker he's after too, although he sure as feck won't get him this round.
 
I think I'm picking the underrated team of this draft. Excites nobody ;)

Nah man, Rui Costa and Shevchenko is brilliant. Alonso and Ballack too potentially, although I can see holes in that unless you add a defensive midfielder. Even if you don't, it all depends on who you play. The way this draft is shaping up you might even get away with them anchoring the midfield.
 
I have half a mind to continuously nag crappy as he does whenever it is somebody else's turn

I really wanted Rui Costa with Sheva and Batigol upfront, but the deadly duo of crappy and vivaj screwed it over. That would be some front line!

But then, because of that miss, I was able to land my star pick in this round, so can't complain much in the end!
 
Hey Aldo, I was looking at the Sheep Draft 3 on the BigSoccer forum - the "open" one, not the one restricted to WC performances. There was a round where you could pick two players - two players who wore the same number at the same World Cup - are you planning on doing a round of the same sort? Hopefully two players who have won a trophy together, or something? ;)

Yep.
Everytime there is a reveal, this is how I picture @crappycraperson and @VivaJanuzaj to be:

crappy & viva's excellent adventure

:lol::lol:
 
Do you mind making it the next round? :D
The two players I would love to get would be attainable, but one of them might be a popular choice amongst others.

I would be probably be later. I wanted to have one earlier but I don't want to confuse people going back and forth single and double, not that it's confusing or anything but still.

I might also scrap the last two rounds, dunno why I had 12 to begin with. 10 seems to do the trick in this format.
 
Makes sense. I guess the next criteria will determine who I would want to pick next. And with that I say, hurry up Crappy!
 
Yep

Cheers pat. I have always admired the little soldier. Going back to the mid 90s again, he seemed to be everywhere when Utd played Juve. Tireless and intelligent. And ideal in a side that has Totti and Dejan. Angelo will be doing a lot of running.
