I'm back, and I'd like to do a Choose Your Own Theme League Theme. I'll use one player who fits the theme of each theme of this leagues 11th (previous) season. The 25th player will be a 200K player, but who fits also fits one of the themes (ie, one theme will be used twice, but the second player will be 200K). For reference, here's the list of themes, slightly modified to work for this, which I'll update with my roster when I get it finalized:
Skunk, I'll need one random birthday for theme #3, please.
