I'm sorry about that, I'm not nearly an adequate enough fill in for you know who. I'll throw the poops out as best as I can, but I do it with such less exuberance.

Basketball. Power Forward

Team that I root for now, but if I ever made it, I'd be loyal to the team that drafted me (assuming they were decent)

What would your jersey number be? and why? 24. It was my number growing after my childhood favorite, Griffey Jr.
What sport/position would you play? Since we are talking about things that will never happen, I guess I would be fast. lol So CF.
What would your nickname be? B
What would you do after your athletic career is over? Commentating or analyst.Would you be faithful to the team that drafted you, or would you want to play for the team that you root for now? That would depend on whether the team valued profit or a combination of profit/winning. I would never stay with a team like Pittsburgh, who routinely makes every effort to maximize profit and could care less about winning. Although it'd be weird playing for any team other than Detroit, since I have the "D" on my arm. lol
and lastly...
You just won the championship game. What are you going to do now? Go on vacation with the family.

To be honest, I'm not sure. I have 3 numbers I like a lot, #8 for Cal Ripken, Jr., #24 for Champ Bailey and the numbers reversed would be 42 which would be Jackie Robinson's number, and #31 which was the number my brother wore in High School, and the person I look up to most
What sport/position would you play?
Baseball and probably 2B

What would you do after your athletic career is over?
I'd want to be a coach/manager
Would you be faithful to the team that drafted you, or would you want to play for the team that you root for now?
It might be tough to play against my favorite team, but if the team that drafted me treated me well, I'd be loyal with them. As well, I'd want to win, and if they weren't interested in that, why stay?
and lastly...
You just won the championship game. What are you going to do now?
Go on a vacation with my family
