Draft Build Up


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

So I told myself i was gonna get some things done today.

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah...That's probably not happening.

 

I doubt I'm alone when I say that I'm so hyped up to see the NFL Draft tonight that I could probably chew through barbed wire right now.  The delay in timing has certainly allowed for more buildup than usual.  You can argue whether it was intentional or happenstance, but what's not so debatable is that the resultant fan frenzy of anticipation is likely putting a huge smile on NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's face.

 

Reports make it sound like this draft is gonna be a pretty wild one to watch.  Along the way to the Panthers pick, I'm sure we'll all groan when we hear one of our favorites has gone elsewhere.  We'll either laugh or cry when we see the picks our rivals make.  We'll likely get a laugh from some stupid move some team makes along the way.  And there's a pretty good chance something nobody saw coming will shock us out of our shoes.

 

Regardless, by the time the Panthers pick rolls around tonight, most of us will probably be tearing our hair out. 

 

And once it's announced, some of us will probably be celebrating while others are screaming.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eight hours till liftoff...

Have a flight I got to catch tomorrow morning at 4. The draft's really going to make for a long day tomorrow. But it's easily one of my fav events of the year.

Anything other than a WR and ill be billing the Panthers for a new remote and TV. I'm not a huge fan of any of the LT's that will most likely be available at 28.

anyway I can get text alerts if something happens to the Panthers before their original pick at #28?

 

I think there are text alerts you can get from the team.  I'd check the site.

 

The NFL probably has something like that too.

I remember sitting there last draft sweating bullets hoping that Star would drop to us and he did. I was so happy that night.

 

I was just sitting there like

I just couldn't believe he was actually dropping like that.  I just knew he was going to end up going a pick or two before we were on the clock.  I was actually more excited when the Jets picked Richardson than I was when we picked Star.  I just knew we were picking Star.  If we hadn't picked him, then I would've been the above picture all over again.  LOL

Imagine if we trade out of the first and have to wait ANOTHER day until we pick! I will have a conniption fit, even if it turns out to be a good move.

 

 

I think the board's servers will explode in flames if that happens :lol:

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
