Celebrity Draft
-
Elliot Ness - can't touch the Untouchable.

Now I've lived out of the Cleveland area for awhile now so my opinion may be moot but wouldn't Drew Carey (sp) qualify for this list? I enjoyed both of his shows back in the day (I was an impressional (sp) tween/teenager at the time) and he launched quite a few careers as well. Plus he's the host of the Price is Right which is a pretty ballin gig. Hundreds of people excited out of their mind to be on stage with you (granted their winning stuff) and gorgeous girls walking around back stage who may be dumb enough to think they can further their careers by tickling your pickle. Plus we all know the Price is Right is a bone fide cure for all ills. I'd take that job for sure.
However, I've never heard of this Reznor fella, but I've never been into the hardcore death metal so y'all will have to forgive me.
