Fafarazzi: Draft Day Re-cap

Well, the Mindy Does Minneapolis Fafarazzi draft is now complete. Here is the draft day re-cap for Team Pete:

Round 1: Lindsay Lohan - after Britney Spears was surprisingly taken with the number two pick, Team Pete was all too happy to snatch up all-time points champion Lindsay Lohan. Even without scandal, Lohan should be able to contribute 15 to 20 points.

Round 2: Ashlee Simpson - A somewhat risky pick, the lesser half of the Simpson girls is red hot right now, with rumors of eating disorder and plastic surgery running rampant. Even if she doesn't manage to do anything stupid over the next three weeks, she will probably pick up at least some points.

Round 3: Pamela Anderson - Pam will be sure to generate some solid pointage, but could blow this thing wide open if she gets knocked up by Kid Rock.

Round 4: Nick Lachey - A huge steal late in the fourth round, Nick is a solid long-time performer who also has good short-term results. I don't see a huge payoff here, but he is definitely going to be a workhorse for Team Pete.

Round 5: Justin Timberlake - Yet another steal, this time in the fifth round. Much like Nick, he has fallen off some people's radar lately, but will generate some solid points with limited downside risk.

Round 6: Mischa Barton - Although I still don't know what people see in her, Mischa Barton is still capable of creating a lot of buzz and should be able to deliver 3 or 4 points.

Round 7: Gwenyth Paltrow - I'm not sure what to think about Gwenyth these days, but I think she is a good pick-up late in the game. I don't think she's worth more than a couple points, but hopefully she will adopt a child and name it "Love Power" or something.

Round 8: Kirsten Dunst - A great eight round pick, Kirsten stands to pick up some Marie Antoinette-related buzz from the talk show and movie premiere circuit, which could pay off handsomely for Team Pete.

Round 9: Kate Beckingsale - A safe pick in the ninth, I decided she had little upside potential and traded her in for Michael Jackson.

Round 10: Mary-Kate Olson - Not bad for a tenth round pick, but she better pull her own weight otherwise she might find her ass traded for Nicky Hilton.

Kirsten Dunst isn't going to give you ANY points, fool!

All I need from KD is two or three points. She has pretty good upside potential, thank you very much. You're just trying to get me to swap her for Borat so you can snatch her up. No dice, bi-atch!!
