A college football player should give bonuses to tackling and throwing. And I'm sure you could think of something for the president. Like being the president of a small Latin American state for the next 3 days.

Rumba to my liberty ship. Organize a rumba party on the ship.

some dude who was the president of a small Latin American state for 3 days.
Are you telling me you couldn't find a suitable ability for this?

That was the only thing in his entire page. Not his earlier history, not anything he could have accomplished, not even whether he lived or died or when he was fucking born. Just that he was president for 3 days.

The problem with most athletes is that they're so common and general that have the players here would have a football ability or something. If there's something unique about an athlete, like they're particularly fast or can easily shoot 3-point baskets, then the player gets an ability.
I feel like if the dude was president for 3 days, he probably was killed by illness or assassination. I don't know if you'd wanna' get iced when the 3 day period is over.

Having gone through dozens of random pages, there's a lot of pretty empty stuff, like all those villages with 18 people in some central Asian country, or a some guy in Australia who was the assistant principle of a middle school for 5 years.

perhaps for things like 18 person villages, you could get 18 minions. Same with unnoteworthy people - you get unnoteworthy minions.

Perhaps you can get that unnoteworthy person as your unnoteworthy minion!

And for the villages with 562 villagers? Or 2,381?

Make them contacts, or have a subset of people be favorably disposed toward the player. The larger the group, the less intense the loyalty. Of course, being an archbishop or owning a battleship is definitely a better bonus than "is Facebook friends with a rather sizeable village in Kamchacta."
