That sounds horrible. Better bet: The felon pool. First team with a DRAFTED player to be arrested wins it (Defensive players don't count). Scorekeeper: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/police-blotter…

Do you guys still do a cash prize? Or cut out the middleman and just give the winner meth?
sounds like a group of guys not above collusion... I wouldn't want to be their commish either.
3 attempted briberies, 2 calls for my resignation, 1 call for my impeachment, 3 separate people questioning my friendship and integrity...two owners contrived a plan in order to improve one team (via a lopsided trade)
This has all the hallmark inconsistencies of a rookie commissioner.
I'm a lawyer. The best advice on how to stay off a jury is to say you cannot keep an open mind. Insist you've already decided the outcome of the case and couldn't consider the evidence. Easiest way to be dismissed from duty.
Oh my god.
Sometimes they identify the charge. Usually right away if it is something normal people really flinch at like animal abuse or incest. Clears out the pool pretty quick.
Like you, I was excited to catch jury duty. It turned out to be a murder case from hell. I won't miss the sleepless nights and intimidation that lasted for two freakin weeks. Hope I never get called again.
That's where you're going to draw the line on the grammatical correctness of Dockett's tweets?
Yup. 6'4" 290 lbs will attract attention.
Regardless of the truthiness of this, the real issue is changing the rules about how this works in the middle of the season. But it doesn't matter really, if the Big 12 was worth a shit in anyone's eyes then being a good Big 12 team would be worth more to the committee. Also, Colorado, Missouri, Texas A&M and Nebraska…
I guess the fear is that the lawyer would end up leading the jury. Great if that lawyer sides with you...
As a civil litigator I'm super conditioned to say "laws vary by state," especially as it applies to my family asking me legal questions that I don't want to answer.
It's weird because, depending on the case, I wouldn't see anything wrong with having a lawyer on one of my juries. I certainly wouldn't wholesale strike one...
I'm in a similar boat. Civil litigator here, would love to serve on a jury, likely never will (I'm in a very large county, and haven't even been called since I moved here 6 years ago).
As a lawyer, I'm always pretty jealous when people get assigned to juries. Lawyers are typically the only people who are really interested in what goes on "behind the scenes" and we almost always get excused!

I missed those "peaceful protests"? The whole town was going batshit crazy. Sad thing is, they were gonna riot no matter what the grand jury decided.
