Draft Doings:
Draft day 2000 - Aug 28 at the J D ranchhouse. Ellen slammed the door on Mike S to everyone's amazement and amusement. I was asked if I was going to hand out government cheese now that I work for the state. We saw Audra's impressive ring - if you look real closely, you can see a ball and chain in it (sorry, John)! The draft commenced and was going well, but bogged down in the middle and late rounds. Csaba gained fame for missing some of his cheat sheets - seems he made copies and forgot to copy the back side of his sheets. After a phone call to the "silent partner" all was well again. The guys took a sudden interest in dog walking - why do you think THAT was? Pizza arrived and was inhaled. Audra gave us a brief serenade which I guess was our official entertainment. Just like last year, silly names of players were called out. Csaba liked "Ah-keel-ah" Smith (he may still be available, I'm not sure). As for the actual draft, RBs went especially quickly this year - John may have gotten the steal of the season with Kurt Warner at around pick #7. We missed hearing our picks called out by the computer program, but the new system has a great web page (where I see the message board is already being used). The lineup matchup prediction stats are great and it will be fun to see how close they are to the actual game results. We all rolled out a bit after eleven unless you count the yakking and comeraderie for those who hung out afterwards.
