A "Historical" fantasy team...
 

OK, I need some opinions here...and I know I've come to the right place! Since I am a high school history teacher, I've decided to create a team of 15 offensive, and 15 defensive players that fit the following criteria: They have made a positive affect on the course of American history. I need a racial balance, but I'm going to have to leave the ladies out of this one. I have several ideas, but wanted to see what you think. The position, and number should also "fit" at well.
Here is what I have so far:

QB: GW (George Washinton #1 Buzzball QB with white locks flowing from Helmet)
RB: MLK(Martin Luther King #39)
RB: TJefferson #24

LB: Tiger Woods
DB: Cesar Chavez

etc.

let me know some must have people, and their number and position from all walks of life (Einstein, Thomas Edison, George Washington Carver, etc)

thanks,

Matt

1. Henry Ford - definetely a fullback

Here Are A Couple Of Names To Add

A.lincon - Te

Why not just have a team of all 43 presidents.

Historical Team
 

Awesome stuff so far guys...thanks and keep them coming!

I love the Abe Lincoln at TE or WR. 6ft 4in, and great hands! :)

By the way, the team's name is the U.S. Spirit. I have a pic up some of the Uniform. I think it will turn out pretty cool

I've done something like this with my own little tabletop baseball dice game. I have two leagues of theme-teams in which the players are assigned based on a common theme linking them. For instance, my Ft. Apache Dukes are a team of John Wayne characters from his films. The Utopia Philosophes —famous philosophers. The Kitty Hawk Aeros are all aviation pioneers, presently from around the dawn of powered flight (I've included Otto Lillienthal in outfield even though he exclusively experimented with gliders in the late 19th century). I also have the Respublica Senators who are, as you'd guess, a team of famous senators in history; including three Romans as well as two members of the Athenian senate from the time of the Pelopponesian War.

You can't miss by organising EF teams based on handpicked themes. You'll wind up with a rather interesting league to say the least.

Kennedy (QB)

Can there be women too?
 

if so then I want Rosa Parks @ Guard and Harriet Tubman in the secondary

reagan
