If making a custom Monopoly Board using your favorite team/league/sport, what would it look like? My minimum criteria: **1. Must at least assign athletes for:** BLUE PROPERTIES Boardwalk ($400) Park Place ($350) GREEN PROPERTIES Pennsylvania Avenue ($320) North Carolina Avenue ($300) Pacific Avenue ($300) YELLOW PROPERTIES Marvin Gardens ($280) Ventnor Avenue ($260) Atlantic Avenue ($260) All other properties OPTIONAL **2. Must at least assign the Railroads to head coaches and managers (please note all are equal value)** Short Line ($200) B&O ($200) Pennsylvania Railroad ($200) Reading Railroad ($200) **3. Utilities are assigned to non-athletes/coaches in your category. Owners, announcers mascots, famous fans, whatever go into this category. Again, all equal value.** Water Works ($150) Electric Company ($150) **4. Finally, who goes to Jail?** This is the one individual who brings the most disgrace to your category. A criminal athlete, an incompetent coach, a bungling owner, a general manager that ruins the team, whatever! I’ll start with 2 categories. **First, Super Bowl Era Philadelphia Eagles!** Boardwalk ($400) DONOVAN MCNABB Park Place ($350) RON JAWORSKI Pennsylvania Avenue ($320) BRIAN DAWKINS North Carolina Avenue ($300) HAROLD CARMICHAEL Pacific Avenue ($300) JASON PETERS Marvin Gardens ($280) RANDALL CUNNINGHAM Ventnor Avenue ($260) MIKE QUICK Atlantic Avenue ($260) LANE JOHNSON Railroads: ANDY REID, DICK VERMEIL, DOUG PEDERSON, BUDDY RYAN Utilities: JEFF LURIE (owner), MERRILL REESE (announcer) Jail: CAREY WILLIAMS (overrated secondary staffer who skipped OTAs, mouthed off about it, and proceeded to produce ZERO on the field) . . . . **Second, Pro Wrestling** Boardwalk ($400) RIC FLAIR Park Place ($350) HULK HOGAN Pennsylvania Avenue ($320) THE ROCK North Carolina Avenue ($300) STEVE AUSTIN Pacific Avenue ($300) LOU THESZ Marvin Gardens ($280) EL SANTO Ventnor Avenue ($260) ED THE STRANGLER LEWIS Atlantic Avenue ($260) RIKIDOZAN Railroads: JIM CORNETTE, BOBBY HEENAN, LOU ALBANO, PAUL HEYMAN Utilities: VINCE MCMAHON, GORDON SOLIE Jail: CHRIS BENOIT And a bonus Monopoly Board! **Philadelphia Phillies post WW2** Boardwalk ($400) MIKE SCHMIDT Park Place ($350) RICHIE ASHBURN Pennsylvania Avenue ($320) STEVE CARLTON North Carolina Avenue ($300) CHASE UTLEY Pacific Avenue ($300) ROBIN ROBERTS Marvin Gardens ($280) JIMMIE ROLLINS Ventnor Avenue ($260) DICK ALLEN Atlantic Avenue ($260) RYAN HOWARD Railroads: CHARLIE MANUEL, DALLAS GREENE, GENE MAUCH, DANNY OZARK Utilities: HARRY KALAS, THE PHILLIE FANATIC Jail: LENNY DYKSTRA ---

Oops…somehow didn’t notice that Owners were specifically supposed to go in the “Utilities” section. Move Kauffman to there in place of Sluggerrr, and replace him in the “Railroads” with Jim Frey. ---

Hmm. > > OK, this is an intentional “pretend not to know something I could be bragging about, so I can make someone else point it out” thing, isn’t it? Haha well there’s no quarterback with better statistics in modern era Eagles history than McNabb, who also quarterbacked the team to 5 NFC title games and one Super Bowl. No one is a bigger critic of McNabb than me for choking in most of those games and always passively aggressively passing the buck to someone else in hindsight, but to me he belongs in the spot. Please don’t tell me Nick Foles deserves the spot: look, there will be Nick Foles statues erected up and down Philadelphia, and he gets a spot on the board, but lets face it: Nick Foles is a total fluke. Unless I’m wrong and you think someone else I’m missing gets the Boardwalk??? ---
