Welcome to Draft Day in the NFL. At least for one of the seven rounds. I could spend all day complaining about how the powers-that-be practically ruined the draft by reformatting it from Saturday-Sunday to Thurs-Fri-Sat, giving us a measly single round that will take roughly 4 hours to complete, ending sometime after midnight on the east coast. Instead I'll just go yell at a cloud and spare you the grievance. Onto the draft!
"Todd! Todd! Todd! Todd!"
(Still waiting on Mel to live up to his end of the bargain and retire after his Jimmy Claussen guarantee)
The Ball is tipped... and there you are..
Whoops, wrong sport. Let's try that again.
In the immortal words of the referee from Celebrity Death Match...
