Everythng I had planned for this evening is CANCELLED. Having the gang over to watch “Joey”? Scratch that. Drinks with Will Leitch at the Happy Ending? Not tonight. Teaching self-defense to the local League Of Women Voters? Maybe next week.
As if you didn’t know already, the NBDL Draft is taking place at 7pm via conference call and I am already doing my research in preperation for the most thrilling development league draft of all-time.
You might think this is a silly way for an adult to spend his Thursday night, but years from now, when I’m considered to be the Mel Kiper Jr. of The NBDL, who will have the last laugh?
Probably you, but I’ll have the hair.
Um… liveblogging?
what, you think I can blog while listening to a phone call over the computer at the same time? I’m not fucking superman.
The location of team HQs for the draft might be the most depressing list I’ve ever read — but most of these teams have set up their draft bases in local sports bars with not very classy names. At some point in the draft, I fear that Kirk Haston or Rodney White’s name is going to get interrupted by the sound of animatronic robots singing happy birthday in the background.
It’s enough to make you long for the conference-call pageantry of the MLB draft.
CSTB,
If you won’t ‘liveblog’ (ooh, that felt so greasy to type), could you please just pass on the Ashville Alligators draft picks? Thanks in advance.
