Calling Dibs

As many of you know, the league gets to name my players in the upcoming draft, which actually looks pretty decent this year. Remember, gotta keep with the Wrestling Theme

However, I am calling dibs on naming my first round pick.

When someone says that they have dibs on something, they claim or declare rights to that thing before anyone else. Like the rights to the last buffalo wing on Superbowl Sunday, or calling "shotgun" to sit in the passenger seat of a car. Calling "Dibs" is a legal and binding contract. Ask ANY Lawyer

As a rule of thumb, “dibs” will always go to the person who “calls them” first.

So my first round pick's name, which I again I reiterate that I am calling "Dibs" on, will be

Corona Virus

Norm make it so

Respectfully, I am not trying to offend anyone who might be worried or scared about these uncertain times. Just trying to lighten the moment while bringing a little bit of entertaining humor to the rest of the league.

Dibs denied. Just like real life, it's possible for people to have the same name. Ask Josh Allen QB of the Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen, DE, for Jacksonville Jaguars. So if two (or more) teams want to have Corona Virus, they can. But please make sure they stand at least 6 feet apart.

Edit: aren't there two Rocky Johnsons in our league after all?

And it would only be fitting that Corona Virus would infect other draft picks and replicate as itself.

RJ SR and RJ JR

And THERE'S a DE named Josh Allen? No wonder I sucked in fantasy football

Have you seen the volatility of the pick I chose as Corona Virus? If he doesn't replicate, then everyone gains

Well, except for Kurse and Tarquin. They'll just go into deeper social distancing
