Draft Plans and Tips

[CivilBolt]

Recording NFL Network and ESPN broadcast...... watching NFLN live..... and watching this board...... =)

Eating Lolitas Carne-Asada Burrito and drinking margarita with occasional shot of Tequila ..... =)

I like the idea of a shot per round or for every time Goodell messes up? .... or....? lol

I used to eat Lolitas a lot mid 90s when I went to Hilltop Middle and High. Not the same now but still good.

I will be explaining to my daughter why we have to watch this.

I'll be smoking a brisket JH10 style. It's going to be my new draft day tradition!

Its one of the most exciting times of the NFL year for me. The time difference makes it a ball-ache but I'll be up watching the whole of the first round and rounds 2 and 3. Strong coffee, hotdogs, chips and queso. And a baffled look from my wife.

I curse the time difference here in Australia and try to sneak as much attention to things online from my desk at work!

I make notes as it goes along for fantasy purposes. I like to compare my feelings from real time to what is later said in fantasy draft guides.

The Mrs. makes wings and a veggie tray. As I sit there anxiously she asks me who I want us to pick and then I tell her who and why we won’t draft them (usually because TT isn’t smart like me). If it’s a good pick then I tell her that my reverse psychology plan worked, if it’s a bad pick then I tell her I knew it would happen. Either way my hope for next season starts to blossom as I wait for the Packers to do something stupid so I can make fun of my brother-in-law.

We gotta winner!!!

I don't really have any traditions but need some help with my draft ideas for this year. I'm trying to balance - watching as much of the draft as possible, paying as close attention as I can, and having delicious food and drink.

Here's my situation - I get off of work at 5:30 and have about a 15-20 minute commute.

I can pick up some food on the way and it will probably cost me an extra 15-20 minutes. Possible ideas - wings, nachos, gyro platter, pizza, spicy Chinese food.
I can cook (I'm actually really good at it) - I can make nachos, make a quesadilla, I can make pasta, or chili dogs. It will take me a little longer until I get to eat and I will be paying attention to cooking for a little. I do have a TV in my kitchen, so I can watch, it just won't have my full attention. I'd try to get a lot of prep work done beforehand, but I can't get everything done.

Drinks:
I have a lot of really good beer (but mostly stouts and sours), I have some bourbon I love, good Scotch, and some wine. I could pick up some lighter types of beers (Pale Ale, IPA, or a Pilsner on my way home one day)

Let me know what you think.

I’m a traditionalist so wings or pizza will always get my vote. You do have the first 3 picks being QBs so that should afford you some extra time either in cooking or food pickup (pickup might take longer than normal if a lot of draft watchers are calling in). My vote is make nachos and beers, after our pick you might need to upgrade to the hard stuff though.

Goodluck. I’ll watch it with my four-year old. I can already hear him asking, why? followed by another why?....
