| The Jets. They're not known for defense. You guys missed Ade's funniest moment in a draft room. About a week before this draft, Ade picked Jamir Miller in like the 10th round. Someone said "he's out for the season". Ade said "who". Everyone in the chat room at the same time said "Miller". There was a breif moment of silence. Then a little bit more. Then Ade said "Oh god", and nothing else, like he had just doomed mankind, or he was about to crash a plane. Funny funny stuff. Here's a great, great pick. Oleg only needed a kicker. He got an excellent one. Oleg is officially the first person to compile a full starting roster. Too bad there's no bonus or anything for that, because he might end up needing it. Haha, but seriously, this pick gives him an instant edge in a lot of weeks. Roony follows suit, and grabs the only kicker in Vanderjaagt's league. Wilkins is the best kicker available, due to his probable 15 extra points per game. He does not, however, have a full team, as he took a break to make sure he secured Shane Mathews. Here, I think "maybe I should take a kicker". Will I follow through in the next pick? I bet the suspense is killing you. Did you glance down at my pick before reading this? I figured that there was no way that a kicker of this caliber would be left 18 picks from now, but some more decent backup QBs would. If you gave me this sentence: Joe ___s Jason Elam, I would have to fill that blank in with "covet". Or maybe "i". If for no other reason, because he taught me how to kick a field goal in Maxim magazine. The secret lies in the planting foot, my friend. Not so much the kicking foot. The kicker rush is officially on. Why this particular kicker got picked, I have no idea. I wouldn't have taken him if he was on the Steelers, a team favored to do some impressive things this year. Now he's on the Texans. Did Pokey figure "Ravens", a team who has no offense, and will have to get field goals by default? Maybe...I'm not sure. I never know how to predict that kind of thing. I guess kickers kicked off Phil's "backup runningback" cue. Maybe not. This could be a good pick, should Bettis' years catch up any more. It won't be a bad pick if Bettis doesn't struggle either, since Zereoue gets more carries than, say, Lamont Jordan or Stacey Mack, and since we're getting into the realm of gambling. Speaking of gambling..some news: Nevada is apparently voting for the recreational use of marijuana. Stefan digs out a steal....wait. Stefan grabs the next guy off of ESPN's rankings, no digging was done. About the marijuana legalization. Critics are saying it might pass, since Nevada has a history of groundbreaking (prostitution, gambling...) laws. They say the reason is so that police can concentrate on more 'important' things. I think it would be legal for adults 21 and over to have 3 oz. or less on them. On with the kicker rush. Qudan gets the best available. Anyway, you can't smoke in a car or in public, only in your house, according to the proposal. I'm not sure what my position is. I don't know enough about it. They say it leads to more drug use, but I'm not sure people smoke weed and then go to cocaine because of that weed. I think they're pretty much going to do that anyway. I started patting myself on the back here for going with my kicker instead of a QB. I think the only way you can say that marijuana leads to cocaine is by saying the deviant lifestyle, e.g. doing one illegal drug, just leads to more. If it's not illegal in the first place, maybe it wouldn't, or something. I don't know. This is why I don't have a position. I do know that if it were legal I'd be much more inclined to do it. And heroin Boy do I love heroin. Once again, the best kicker goes. Yahoo must have had similar rankings to me or something. In all of my draft reviews, I have to mention this about Janikowski that I think is interesting. The width of the player column isn't arbitrary. Sebastian has the longest name in any of my drafts, and quite possibly, the longest name in the league. So you see, there's a reason for everything. See? And some people were worried that 4 receivers were too much. There are tons of guys like this who will always be available to us. He'll do some stuff every week. He'll rarely score, but we get good points for yards in this league. What sparked this sudden break from the kicker rush, I'm afraid we'll never know. One thing I do know is Norman is no opponent to the previously mentioned proposal. Chris Jackson my intentions were good, I wish I could...become a magician to abracadabra all the sadder...picks from G, wishing the, draft won't be....bad. We had some help and rankings, this makes me...mad. See G forgot the number one rule....make sure he's gonna play this year or you'll look like a fool. An aberration. I'm sorry, Chris Jackson... Whooooh! I am for real..... Winners: Oleg, Arun, Joe, Phil, Stefan, Jason, Danny, Mike, Howard, Outkast Losers: G, Ade Pokey (Ade almost made the winner list. I factored in bonus points for the Jamir Miller situation, but it wasn't quite enough to salvage the New York Jets pick) |
