Mr. Irrelevant

With the last pick of the 2006 SlamNation draft, GM Reno took rookie Lakers' point guard Jordan Farmar. Mr Farmar was very excited about his new role as cheerleader-slash-fifteenth man on Rhythm Drive. After starring on a perennially underachieving UCLA team, Farmar stated that he was just happy to make it to the "big leagues." He's hoping that Steve Francis will take him under his wing and teach him how to get traded twice in a career. In fact, once team owner Reno was reached for comment, he seemed confused and said "Jordan Farmar? I wanted Michael Jordan! Who is this guy? Trade him immediately!"

Despite not having the full support of his team (or teammates), Farmar is dedicated to signing a few endorsement deals before he gets cut. As the new "Mr Irrelevant," he hopes to spin his five minutes of fame into a book deal, an inspirational song, and a Saturday Night Live hosting gig. "I'll be looking forward to expanding my career. I'm open to taking any advice that talent scouts -- or coaches -- throw my way."

From the looks of his signing party, Farmar seems to be quite capable of listening intently. Look at the size of those ears...
