More NFL veterans could land in UFL

The dust has settled on the 2010 UFL draft, a player-selection process not confined to folks who have just finished their college football careers.

As we pointed out last night, NFL veterans DeWayne White and Shawn Andrews have been drafted. More guys with NFL ties were picked as well.

We mention this again primarily because, as a reader points out, the UFL website has applied the phonetic spelling approach to former NFL defensive end Chike Okeafor, listing the second-round choice of the Omaha Nighthawks as “Cheeky Okeefer.”

Maybe he’ll win a starting job across from “Kenny Petersono,” forcing sacks and fumbles that can then be turned into touchdown receptions by “Roland Curry,” who will be trying to outperform “Antonio Chapman.”

At least they spelled “Demarcus Faggins” accurately.
