BLOG: For the first time in a long time, Iowa Staters can care about the NFL Draft

Why in the hell would someone call this optimistic? I certainly don't want this to happen.

Irony. I actually think your post was pretty pessimistic.

Care, but probably not watch. Given how ABC is promoting it by having country singers and other people on, it's going to look like a freaking awards show. Hard pass. Hope Butler goes in the first round though.

I love watching the draft for NBA and NFL and I couldn't care less about either league. They do need to provide lots of filler between picks but lots of neat stories playing out... I (sadly) love the green room guys waiting to get called and looking more and more nervous and anxious and constantly checking their phones...

Could they not broadcast it live, but rather send film crews out to lots of locations, and then produce it into something like the movie Draft Day? Because that was entertaining.

I've tried watching the NFL draft a few times, and it's really boring.

It could be a filler for another bad date night! lol

How about they make the entire things one big speed round. Every team already has a list of players at each point they would choose. Make them do it quickly and see who screws it up.

Hey, it works for me in fantasy football. I never win, but at least it goes fast.

Haha. Needs to include speed trading too. Introducing the element of a rip off would make it much more interesting.

Yeah, I'd put the chances of the Vikings screwing it up at about 100%

"Filler"? If it is a bad date night, there will be no filling of anything.

Nuggets play tonight so I'm more interested in that to see if Monte gets in.

Hope both get drafted or at least find spots in teams and schemes that they fit with.

Last year there was hope then for some reason no one got drafted. I am not going to get excited until their name is called

Wanna do an avatar bet about it? If both Butler and Montgomery get drafted, you change your avatar to one of my choosing. If only one or neither is drafted, I'll change my avatar to one of your choosing. Avatar stays up for 1 month.

Deal?

He generally plays 20+ minutes a game so you should see him.
