It is the Evil Empire vs. the Good Guys
Luke Skywalker - Pedro
Obiwan - Schilling
Han Solo - Manny
Chewbacca - Ortiz
Qui-Gon Jin - Johnny Damon
Lando Calrisian - Orlando Cabrera
Jar-Jar Binks - Kevin Millar
R2-D2 - Jason Veritek
C-3PO - Trot Nixon
Wedge - Tim Wakefield
Mace Windo - Pokey Reese
Yoda - Nelson de la Rosa

The Emperor - Steinbrenner
Vader - Jeter

Any more? I'm surprised I remembered that many Star Wars characters. I've put it out of my mind since Lucas ruined the movies.

2. Oh God, please remove Jar Jar Binks from your list
It's the only way to erase its existence from popular consciousness.

8. Manny=Jar Jar?
I always though ManRam was more the bizzare Gungan type.

9. Manny's a main character though, and he only works best with his partner
Ortiz hitting next to him in the lineup.

Manny+Ortiz = Han+Chewie

7. Yeah, I dunno. I guess those "bounty hunters" are interchangable

I guess cause losing a fight with a wall is sort of like Greedo getting himself shot.

If you know about how Kevin Brown came to New York, it's just as much a story of greed as A-Rod.

10. Wedge/Wake!

Good call!

Wedge, the guy who never gets any credit, yet is always right there making things happen when it counts the most...like Wake.
