    No offense taken, BTW. I am just not really seeing all the hoopla.
    Think of it like Christmas morning. There's a bunch of kids ready to open presents and anyone holding up the draft is basically an amalgamation of Scrooge and The Grinch rolled into one.

    The bigger concern was whether you were going to miss the pick altogether and get auto'd. We were concerned for your well being.

      I make it a point to wear my hoopla shades on draft day. I just can't help it.

      Plus I hat that you picked the guy I wanted. Dick.

      • I always assume the people at the top of the draft aren't around much or they'd be better at the game.

        Then I look at Philly and realize how wrong I am.

          Simmer. The last curse I placed on your organization resulted in Freddie B's labia rupturing. Shall we escalate?

              Obviously. We have not assembled the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse yet. We're quite vulnerable until we do.

                        I've been called Grinchy McScrooge on more than one occasion, believe you me.

                            • I'm just waiting for Morgantown to pick. I have three guys who I like equally and am having a hell of a time deciding upon.

                                Morgantown has been in touch with @BLBNews and he's trying to get home to make his pick before time runs out. He's been out working.
