How I Love the NFL Draft...NOT

This weekend is the NFL draft, where teams choose which of the available college players they want. No problem here, it's better than the old way when the players went to the highest bidder.

What slays me is the completely overkill of the draft now. ESPN shows it CONSTANTLY all weekend and there are a million dudes who, apparently make their livelihood from coming up with mock drafts. What's the point of those? To see if you can guess what the teams are going to do? Figure out what the BEST draft is? And who checks up on these guys to see if they are right? It seems like these guys used to play D&D in their parents basement, found out they liked football, and now use this as a socially acceptable replacement.

Having said all of that, the RAIDERS better get some more offensive line help and a decent wide receiver. They do not, repeat, do NOT need another running back, especially McFadden. He's too much of a fumbler.

If I were the Packers, I'd be sure they have a good left tackle to take care of Aaron Rogers. Otherwise, they'll have to get Favre's ass off of his tractor for another year.

Hmm...how about they send me to guard BRETT'S ass? I think that is the better game plan.
