If we can coach the team not to miss 40 tackles, not give up 3 yellows, and play with any semblance of cohesion, I don’t think it matters too much who we pick. Maybe make sure whoever the back three are can catch a high ball. Madness. It will never catch on! That's the problem, lack of catching. :P
