GM's thread about nothing (19 Viewers)

[shuke]

had one of those drafts last night where everyone was so uninformed that it through me off. 5 QBs (including Peyton) went in the first round of a PPR league.

This is the year of the reaching for quarterbacks early. Too many people reading Matthew Berry.

Forced to agree. Maybe, and by that I mean probably not, this made sense at the height of the RBBC craze, but now that teams have recovered their wits and are (mostly) going with one workhorse RB, taking the QB early is a near-guaranteed team-killer. I just did a draft where I was able to get Matt Ryan and Griffin in the 10th and 11th rounds. Sorry to go all Shark Tank with this response.

That's what I was targeting. Ended up with Ryan and Luck.

Got a call from the Reds today. On Sunday home games, they put a kid at each of the 9 positions at the beginning of the game when the Reds take their positions, and each player brings out an autographed ball. My son got picked for a game in a couple weeks.Not sure if this is continued compensation for when I complained about that kids club event or if he just lucked out, but either way,

Brandon Phillips

Sweet In other news, I may have just drafted the worst pretend football team ever. Probably should have waited to start drinking

Let him know a good ifriend of yours drafted him instead of you.

It was pretty awesome. We went to the field through the Cardinals dugout. The parents had to hang out along the seats down the line, but the kids were lined up between home and third during most of the pre-game stuff, national anthem, etc. Then they ran to the positions right before the Reds were introduced. I had a minor freak out moment, because Phillips was still doing warm ups and had to get back to the dugout and get his glove before going on the field. So my son is out there standing on second while the rest of the kids were coming off the field. I think the only other kid still on the field was the one running in from center, and Phillips hadn't even gotten to second yet. Homer Bailey was warming up, rest of team was throwing, etc. Then we all start getting ushered to the dugout by security. Luckily I was able to snap some pics and Brandon finally got there.

My favorite part was Zach waving to the crowd while he waited, like they were all there to see him.

I can't even begin to imagine how cool that must've been for him. I would've killed for that when I was his age.

Should I be ashamed that I enjoy whipped cream vodka and root beer?

No. Last super bowl I made "floats": vanilla vodka & root beer for my guests, they were the hit of the party.

Is there a way to make a slushy version of this?

Are you one of Tanner's students?

You guys remember LoL Lou, right? Completely whacked-out dude that was my FB friend.

Today he was at a party that was at the restaurant where my wife's a manager. They talk for a minute. Then he asks "Where's Brian?"

Like I'm supposed to go to work with my wife everyday.

shuke, the Reds experience is fantastic! How totally cool that he got to do that; I never would have forgotten it. As a bonus, Phillips has to be one of the coolest players in MLB.

Shtick input needed:

I have been nominated and selected by the local Business Journal as one of the recipients of their annual "40 under Forty" award winners as a leader in the business community under the age of 40. (Pretty sure they don't know about me coloring in my nipples during shot videos or anything I've ever posted here) They have this big fancy award night where the winners get introduced and walk up a big red carpet and receive their award. To "jazz" things up this year, they have asked that I give them a song of my choice for them to play when I'm introduced that will play over the sound system while I "move and groove" up the red carpet.

Here is my quick list of sthick songs off the top of my head:

1 Hello (Lionel Richie) Because Lionel is awesome and no one else will pick that masterpiece

2 Crazy Train (Ozzy) When I get to the stage I bite the head off of a bat upon getting award

3 Dancing in the Dark (Springsteen) I grab a random chick and dance with her like Bruce and Courtney Cox in the video

4 Start Me Up (Stones) I dance like Mick the whole up the carpet

5 Billie Jean (Michael Jackson) I moon walk up to the stage and grab my crotch (probably grab my crotch no matter what song I pick anyways)

6 Theme song to Golden Girls Break down crying when I get award and point to sky yelling "Thank YOU Bea Arthur for being MY friend"

7 Any gangsta rap song with swearing and racial slurs. Get to the stage and flip off the crowd with both middle fingers

Any other ideas? And I am absolutely picking something funny that will be the one thing everyone will remember about the night. Go

4 Start Me Up (Stones) I dance like Mick the whole up the carpet

Like the Mick / Cockney strut idea. Thinking ##### (female dog) might be a better choice of song though
