Gentlemen... there has been much ado about the upcoming draft. Many questions remain uncertain. Who will pick first? How will the selections play out? How heavy will Dunkin' Wesnuts be at the weigh in? These questions will be answered in time but until then it is all up for debate.
To add some fuel to an ever-growing fire, I wanted to throw out some scenarios that... fingers crossed... will play out in my favor and shake up some competitive and engaging dialogue.
1. I do NOT want to play for Joe. I'm sick of him stealing my Patrick Higdon. Also, I refuse to let him retire with an undefeated record and I desperately need another MVP for my fireplace mantel. Most people think of me as some altruistic happy-go-lucky fella, but deep down I am a selfish little bitch.
2. If I go first, I will theoretically and most likely be playing with Sabin. It has never happened in our entire lifetime and I'm not sure how I feel about this yet. Arch enemy turned ally? What does this spell for my MVP chances? My fireplace needs MOAR hardware and can Sabes help facilitate my goal or will he be the wrench in my spokes? Jeff, use this off season not to get in shape, but to perfect your passing and setting screen ability.
3. Enhancing my stock in the Roommate Draft... As someone that does not rely on a hotel room for these trips and occasionally wanders the night streets of a city with no purpose other than the sweet sweet squishy of a developed woman, I seemingly don't bring much value to this draft. However, those lucky enough to embrace my company can only expect playful tickling, warm and soft conversation, and gentle laughter. Not to mention, my back rub and spooning skills are second to none. I expect to leave Scottsdale with a collection of stories to add to my expanding life portfolio and would love to make new BFF's along the way.
In Summary:
The summary is all-time.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the best posts of all-time. Like Atlas Shrugged, it deserves a second reading.

Fantastic post. only issue is that you, like myself and many others, have made the mistake of thinking that the team who picks first picks last. Because each each captain only picks 7 OTHER players (with himself making 8), whoever picks first does not pick last. So if Joe wants, he can choose not to have Sabin on his team if he so desires.
ReplyDeleteAyn Rand reference doesn't go unnoticed. Good book if anyone has a month to kill.
ReplyDeleteExplain it Doc. I'm not smart enough to understand given our snake draft order. Seems like it must end with a singular pick if it begins with one given the even number of total participants.
1-2-2-2-2-2-2-1?
Yes it ends with a singular pick:
ReplyDeleteJoe gets himself and picks 1,4,5,8,9,12,13
I get myself and picks 2,3,6,7,10,11,14
Spaces between the commas would be appreciated Skillz.
