NFL Draft

As the NFL Draft kicks off this year (on a Thursday), excitement can be felt everywhere.

Which means I'm pretty damn excited right now. The first round went on last night (check it out online) and I think I did pretty well last night. I got a good chunk of them correct (yessss!).

As I'm anxiously sitting here, waiting to hear Taylor Price called (I go to Ohio, what do you expect?), I'm feeling the need to discuss my feelings and well, unfortunately for all of you, you get to read about it. So I apologize in advance for my spontaneous shout outs about who just got drafted.

New England's pick is in, FYI. Anddd... they picked Brandon Spikes, ILB from Florida.

I remember when they beat Cinncy. HA. That's the only reason I like Florida. Otherwise, I do not like Urban Meyer.

Speaking of Florida, I cannot believe Tim Tebow went in the first round. What was Denver thinking?

Patrick Angerer, ILB from Iowa goes to Indy!

Anyway, that pick had to be staged. Why the hell would you trade up to get a second rounder, at best? Not to mention, Denver has Orton and Quinn. You can't just seat them to watch a crybaby take their starting position.

Charles Brown, OT from USC to the Saints!

Round 3 starts now! Taylor Price soon? TO THE STEELERS?! I can only hope.

The biggest disappointment so far (in my opinion) has to be that Colt McCoy is still in the draft. Jimmy Clausen and Tim Tebow before McCoy? Despite his off accuracy when it comes to long passes, his short pass accuracy is spectacular and he definitely has what it takes to lead a huddle in the NFL.

Then again, I'm not the coach here.

However, as a fan, watching the reactions of the draftees (sounds legit) was absolutely mind blowing. Gerald McCoy, DT from Oklahoma to Tampa Bay was probably my favorite reaction ever. He was a genuinely happy man with that phone call. So much emotion.

Jon Asamoah, OG from Illinois goes to Kansas City!

I hope you're all watching this draft. There isn't much else to watch. Baseball season is to early to contemplate and the NBA is... well the NBA. If it's not the Cavs or some big shot, then to hell with that.

(However, I was a fan of Duke winning the March Madness!)

I'M SO TIRED OF SEEING TIM TEBOW BEING TALK ABOUT. This pick had to be soooo staged. There was just an ESPN guy chilling in the house? He had a great time around him (as you can tell by the 7 Florida guys drafted already), but without that team, he's doomed. He's not that accurate, he's just all talked up. They say his arm has gotten better, well, he's did the practices without any pressure. He's just overrated. We'll see how Denver uses him. Until then, talk about someone else, ESPN.

My computer is starting to freeze up on me, so I ought to start wrapping this up. (I'm really getting sick of my computer freezing up). However, I have only two picks left until the Steelers, so hopefully my computer will last.

STEELERS UPPP!!

And the 3rd round draft pick for the Pittsburgh Steelers is... OH OH.

COME ON ESPN, SHOW IT.

Oh.. Emmanuel Sanders, WR from SMU...

I'm disappointed, Taylor Price is a WR!

Well everyone, thanks for reading.

FYI... Taylor Price went to New England with the 90th Pick.
