So under R?

They are best known for their 1977 UK top ten hit "Do Anything You Wanna Do", released under the shortened name Rods.

You are doing a good job, these drafts are like wrangling cats and this one is especially complex.

Now tears in my eyes "Baby please don't go"
You had one too many having one for the road
Fresh from detox fresh from jail
Took your rehabilitation and it drove me to hell
Drink and drive white lightning faster --- your last drive

5.J - Michael Jackson - "Beat It"

It's like picking Josh Allen 7th overall. A man of such immense talent does not deserve to be on the board this late.

It’s part of VBD. Like you wouldn’t draft Jahmyr Gibbs at #12 - oh wait.

Sometimes you just gotta go with best player available. I would've been okay with Gibbs to the Bills at 27......not 12 though.

This board software sucks.
Keep getting the 10000 character error message when trying to update post 2 and ive spent way too long trying to update it to turn back.

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

@Northern Voice owes a 4th and 5th round pick
@Mrs. Rannous i think owes a 5th rounder.
So do I

Seeking further clarification on the Eephus 5th round pick.

@Mrs. Rannous i think owes a 5th rounder.

Ok. This is one confusing release.
Eddie is either some doll they had as a stage prop or the managers first name, Ed Hollis, brother of Talk Talk singer Mark Hollis.
Of course Ed Hollis worked with ****ing Elvis Costello.

Eddie and the Hot Rods clearly belongs under E.

Where is the confusion nobody asks? This song was released in the UK under the moniker the Rods...Ive seen the vinyl rekease and it clearly states “The Rods”. This was a marketing effort during Punk to make the name fit within the times.
That said the French vinyl release and I believe International said it was Eddie and the Hot Rods. Good enough for a solid argument of including it under E.
Further that argument is the 74 compilation, live and assorted releases that place the song as Eddie and the Hot Rods.

Up to @Eephus whether he wants it under E or R. It is a rare release that is eligible for both.

 

[krista4]

I deleted a pick just in case.

You could always just include the artist name (not the song title), since the songs may change with steals.

Oh crap. I just remembered that my first pick (which was stolen from me anyway) was meant to establish a theme to my draft, and I forgot this in picks 2-6. I'm afraid we'll need to start over.
