I thought about doing it too but I think I'll just remain neutral.

Maybe I should hire a journalist eh? Can make up stuff like Calgary writers do.

Ooooooo, a hottie draft journalist position. They could do a daily blog report. Sounds like something someone would jump at!

On second thought it's too subjective. And the last thing we need is to insult people's picks. It's been great so far so let's leave it as is and in the hands of the judges at the end

Cause you have to wait a bloody year to see an episode.
And I wouldn't think CP was that nerdy. It is a sports forum afterall.

first things first . . . girlysports deserves some serious kudos for this one *yells "here here!" and taps desk*

Secondly, I don't want to say her name because I don't want to taint the draft, but there is a girl out there who hasn't been picked yet. The fact that this pick hasn't been made is nothing short of a crime against humanity. I'm very disappointed in each and every one of you . . . unless you picked Charlize Theron or Mandy Moore, in which case you're at least in the ballpark of sanity.

Dude, I think I know who you're talking about, and this will be a beauty sleeper pick at 22.

BTW, when is the deadline for picks 22 and 23? I'm at work right now, it wouldn't be very appropriate...

There is no deadline. If something comes up always let me know (I can draft for anyone if you give me a list). Otherwise, sometime tonight when you're not at work would be great.

Hey just because Im bitter that I missed the draft doesn't mean I can't release strategy, hah I certainly know I would be holding my cards tight if I was involved though.
