  • This draft is the stupidest thing I have done in my entire life. I have done CtrL-F approximately 6000 times, I finally find Bug Holliday and he is taken. How did it ever come to this ?

      I missed this in my 8 hour search to find an undrafted player. Best wishes in the new job, hope its a nice change for you

      • I think it will be. There are a lot of great things about Google that I'll miss, but I'm going from a 70-120 minute commute each way to being a mile from my new office.
        In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

        • Wow. I remember when you were laboring over the decision to take the job with Google. Guess we've all been here too long...

            It's probably obvious from the way I have been drafting (and not drafting) -- but I'm confused. I assume you are just messin with me ?

              The way I have been drafting I was worried you weren't joking. Haven't been able to focus at all on this draft

                        • He was probably confused because Revo somehow screwed up numbering his picks on the turn, which I would not have thought was possible.

                            I didn't think it was possible either.

                              Johnny, throw me a PM after you pick so I'll know. Thanks.
                              Yeah, because he's an idiot. Gimme a sec.

                              • Sorry, I spent so much time on those 2 picks earlier that I just blanked that I still had a pick to make.

                                ... and then I picked a completely different pick to the player I had planned.
