Half way point overall ranking:

9. crimsonfox - Overall your picks are better than many other picks in the field (far better in some cases), but you lack that one stand out 'great pick' imo, and I think it'll hurt you with the field judges. You'll end up 'just outside' the top spots in too many people's minds
8. filthyvermin - You're almost trying to be as polarizing as possible it seems. But your one terrible pick is just too big to overlook.
7. rtspurs - boxing?...
6. diab - All of your picks look good, and I think they are, but similar to crimson, you lack a stand out. OVerall though, you have an above average selection group so far. Lots of top 5 type picks.
5. irtm - I like my picks, and think I have some strong top 3 candidates, but I risk being sniped late in the game with other better picks that appeal to category judges better
4. bloo - Half baked?... but I still think as a whole you're doing quite well.
3. eyebooger - Clearly brining good choices all around, and you're nipping at the heels of the top two.
2. xander - You're steadily making great picks left and right. None of them are bad, you only lose to e_holle because he has that 'wow' factor.
1. e_holle - Soccer is such a game winner, it will likely get top honors from all judges. Combined with other great picks, you're the clear front runner imo.

e_holle has one great pick (soccer), one average pick (Final Fantasy), a wasted 2nd round pick on a guy he could have gotten in the last round (Connelly) and the worst pick in a draft that has filthy in it.

But really, Slurpee can't be worse than Swift.

I can at least say "Is a slurpee a drunk food?" and some people would say yes.
If I said "Is Swift a good Frontwoman" "Is Swift even a frontwoman at all?" I can't think anyone anyone other than filthy would say yes.

No drunk person in the history of ever has said, "Man I really need a slurpee right now"

I would rank a bag of frozen peas as a frontman the same as Taylor Swift, and still poker is by far the worst pick of the game.

I whole-heartedly agree with all the assessments.

I think maybe I should have gone with [redacted] for the drunk food category. But what do I know about drunk food.

I will say that, for me, there is a clear (but close) leader in my category. Others may not agree.

who's turn is it?

taylor swift has the most fierce fan following in the world, and that's not because of her great band, the agency. it's all because of her

This sounds good, although I am fairly indifferent to the +/-5.
