Kids these days. They're awesome.

Might be a honda. Didn't do a search.

 

[FUBAR]

Combine could be fun

But do you take a tight end or wide receiver?

 

[mquinnjr]

Do all the girls who don't get drafted go to the WW? Can one drop their previous pick if they find value on the WW? What's the trade deadline, 48 hours before prom start? Commish or league veto?

SO MANY QUESTIONS!



Pretty brutal IRL, but this shtick has a lot of potential.

Funny when we did the Russian Mail Order Bride Draft. Not so funny in real life. Just absolutely sad at how many different ways kids can screw with/bully/harass other kids nowadays.

Who exactly is being bullied in this scenario?

 

[McGarnicle]

Absolute genius.

But the prom draft has also drawn complaints from female students, he said. Last year some junior girls were upset that junior boys were asking sophomore girls instead of them, he said.

They couldn't have asked sophomores without the draft? I took a sophomore.

Doesn't seem like the girls are in a total uproar about it:

“A lot of the girls respect the draft and stick with those dates,” he said.

Just remembered this: http://www.post-gazette.com/local/south/2006/06/24/Family-files-suit-over-Mt-Lebanon-High-School-Top-25-list/stories/200606240114

This happened not far from me and being that I wasn't that far outta high school I thought it was genius. These kids that wrote it were brutal.

Please post your roster and scoring system.

I love NFL style, especially cool facemasks.

Don't fear hyphens.

There's a Friday thread in this somewhere.

I don't think this particular situation arises to the level of bullying. I was speaking in more general terms of how kids are bullied/harassed/victimized by other kids with technology nowadays. It used to be the bullying stopped once you reached home and more often than not ended once you stepped off of campus. Now, it is 24/7 with texting, social media, etc.

Though I don't think this appears to be bullying, per se, there is definitely an unsavory element to the entire idea of publicly ranking/drafting girls.

But don't we do the same thing here with celebs/ models, only they don't know about it?

I need to see the draft results and stats

 

[Patriotsfatboy1]

For my junior prom, I took one of the town beauty pageant girls who was a friend. Boring time. Kids need to learn early on that unless you have stupid money, trying to buy happiness isn't worth it.

I would like to see the combine results, though.

prom.

this pretty good looking girl busted my balls to go... I hated proms so said no 100000 times. finally convinced me, thinking Id get laid.

she didnt put out. was furious.

so I had to plow one of the girls who had no date and just showed to the afterparty

They must have a combine. 40 time is obviously how long it takes to drink a 40oz.

Having big cones probably moves you up the board.

Doing well on the Wonderlick is probably important.

 

[VA703]

would like to see the 1.01

 

[VA703]

wonder how much it would cost for 2 picks

Can't overlook the position specific drillings either.

I didn't find out until my senior year that a couple of the hot girls in my class had crushes on me. One of them told me to ask her to prom. I did, we went, everyone was a bit surprised (I didn't run in the hot chick/jock crowd).

Turns out a couple of them had the hots for me since our junior year. I thought they were too good for me, they thought I was too far outside their little clique.

Lesson: fire away above your level. You only get HS once.

Joe is in need of tight ends;

LaShawne needs wide receivers..
