Usually when you have a great wise manager/coach in a sports film, they don’t open up with his first line being “Tire World”.

Still, the longtime Manager of the Toledo Mud Hens transferred his skills and lunchbox ethos cross the I-90 to Cleveland, where his motivational skills and ability to urinate on a contract was a perfect match for his keen judge of talent. Now, why couldn’t he remain the manager throughout the film in the sequel?

We have no problem making the argument that Lil’ Penny actually might be more remembered than the real Penny Hardaway. The commercials were a mid-90’s phenom, and achieved a significant following; a rare feat for any commercial series. Voiced by Chris Rock, there has been talk about resurrecting the puppet; which would be great news to Penny; who probably has nothing else to do.

Kevin O’Shea is on the ballot because we respect that he is a former Heisman Trophy winner…and is also Al Bundy. However we are still trying to wrap our heads around him being outcoached by Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors even though he had a clearly superior team. Oh wait; he channeled Al Bundy. Now it makes sense.

Why you should vote for him:
We will play the Heisman card.

Although he is an Assistant District Attorney, Kevin MacArthur always came off a little weak to us, as his Fantasy League Team was basically run by his wife, and his unemployed brother constantly took advantage of him. Seems a little weak doesn’t it?



The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
The League (2009-)

Actor:
Stephen Rannazzisi

Role Portrayed:
Fantasy Football Team Owner

Why you should vote for him:
He is the “glue” guy of the League who seems to bring everyone together.

Why you should not vote for him:
The same for all “League” characters; this is a hit on a relatively small channel, and has not been seen by many.
