C'mon and get me you twist of fate
I'm standing right here Mr. Destiny
If you want to talk well then I'll relate
If you don't so what cause you don't scare me
You get all squeezed up inside/Like the days were carved in stone/You get all wired up inside/And it's bad to be alone
You can go out, you can take a ride/And when you get out on your own/You get all smoothed out inside/And it's good to be alone

Darnit Gedunker. That's who I wanted in the second round.
Time for a WR run!![]()

Blinding speed in the draft today. Wow, I had no idea that we had that in us!!![]()
I sure had a tough time passing on Witten and Bush last round in favor of grabbing McNabb. I think McNabb comes close to leading the league in yards this year. Brady and Brees will be 1-2. I'm stoked that Winslow lasted to me. I've been watching the draft pretty closely and the Treehuggers (where are you?) have certainly done a nice job improving their team thus far (...now, about the rest of you.....)![]()
Sorry for not picking this weekend. I was in Canada eh
I wondered when Roddy was going to go. Good talent, but questionable QB situation.
WR's are just flying off the shelf! Glad I got my TE... I had him as #3 or #4...![]()

It should be an automatic viking if you pick someone who has already been taken!!!

D'oh! I've been clobbered by the VIKING and have caused shame for all my fellow food chain bottom dwellers and loyal patrons of the Chumbucket. I have no excuses.![]()
I will donate Braylon Edwards to Mastiff as my penalty......um, no, I won't.....he can enjoy the fruits of Steve Smith for one more season!Hey, Mastiff, isn't Ken Lucas an acquaintance of yours?!? Oh, the irony, the irony!!

I don't get it... DoD was just here!
EDIT: He's back! Can he get the pick done?! Will he Viking?!
Woo hoo! (Not a bad pick, either... good value.)

And the draft lurches forward another couple of picks...
Heh heh...
Like that last selection? Allen is going to be a force. Averaging about a sack a game, with 4 or 5 tackles, FF and batting down passes. I wouldn't have reached so high, but in training camp, he's being used as a pass catcher in goal line situation!
Besides... I liked Chambers, and with him gone there are about two dozen WR who are all the same, and the RB's are gone except for platoon and handcuff guys. So why not?!![]()

zman with the sleeper pick. VJ has been a sleeper pick for like three years and never done much of anything. I do think this year he is going to breakout but with all the other options on that team he's going to still be a game to game guy. I was hoping he would last a little later when I could have snagged him up.
I'm banking on his playoff performance from last year to carry through. Also he plays the Donkeys twice. He always rises up against his favorite team (growing up) and he and Philip Rivers seem to be the Broncos killers...(much to my chagrin)... if you can't be 'em, pick em!
Stupid Philip Rivers and his smack talking ways. I hope Elvis Dumervil NAILS him this season... (since Dumervil is our only defensive player...)

He was on that list of 2 dozen, but a little farther down. This is the fun part of the draft when you really have to do some research to get the right guy...I know what WR I still want, but it was an easy choice to grab what should be the best point producing D man... I'd have waited a round if Chambers or Engram had been there, but not much longer. Or I could be totally wrong. Anyone have an eye on Allen the next couple rounds?
