Smartly Pretty

Larry Murphy, D. 1,000 point scorer as a defensemen (mostly assists, he's got over 900). With a starting defense pairing of Leetch and Murphy, to go along with Ovechkin-Nieuwendyk-Hull, I really think I have the best scoring team thus far. That said, I'm sure other drafters disagree.

Deacon Jones. I honestly think he's the second best defensive player ever who isn't LT. Invented the term sack.

Shit!

The most underrated player of all time, Joe Nieuwendyk. He has the same number of points as Mike Bossy. One might say "Yeah but Bossy lead the Isles to 4 cups in a row". Niewendyk lead three different teams in three different decades to Stanley Cups. He won a Calder and a Smythe. 500 goals, 1000 points. I promised myself I wouldn't take a New Jersey Devil, but for Nieuwendyk I make an exception. This gives me a first line of Ovechkin-Nieuwendyk-Hull. Fuck yeah.

The Virgins are streaming their entire debut cd on myspace right now. Comes out June 3rd. I really really like it. Especially "One Week of Danger" and "Rich Girls".

I got XM Radio entirely for major league baseball. I'll fucking flip out if they don't have it next year. Also, guys, chill out with Heilman. Until last night, he had been pitching great. He had a slow start, then really got going, and then had one bad outing last night. It happens. Having said that, if a team wants to trade us a good 8th inning guy for Heilman so they can make him a starter, I'd be content with a deal like that.

Just make it impossible for one player to be picked twice. Like, if someone picks an offensive line, another line from the same team can only be picked if all five players are different.

nevermind.

Does a bad minor league club usually mean the farm system is really terrible? Does St. Lucie sucking so hard mean that there's no one on St. Lucie right now who could potentially be a respectable major league ball player?

Team name is Clorox Leetch.

Where it rocked, IIRC

Billy Wagner is untouchable this year. This game makes me think the Mets can definitely snap out of this funk, and win some games again.

In!

I like high school. I mean, I don't like class and shit, but I like the people I've met at school. I've met all my friends at high school, I had just moved here in the 8th grade and didn't really meet anyone that year. Making friends post-move was insanely easy once I decided to actually talk to someone, I wish I knew that. Make one friend, and then they introduce you to their friends, and you instantly have a nice group of friends. Oh well. Not too many funny stories to tell about HS really. I dunno. My English teacher last year is in all likelyhood the most attractive female in the entire school, I guess that's interesting. I skip fourth period to hang out in her room all the time.

Jay Bruce's debut thus far has been pretty great. 2-2, two walks, rbi, stolen base.

My bad. Goblin picked, and at the last time I had checked, my name was right above Goblin's, so in my head I said "ok so in odd rounds I pick after Treble, even rounds I pick after Goblin" so Goblin picked and I went.

What's wrong with Shia LaBeouf?

Glenn Hall, G Three time vezina winner, Conn Smythe, Calder. Fuck yeah.

I sometimes don't tip pizza delivery men for absolutely no reason. What am I tipping you for? Driving to my house to give me pizza? That's your job, and you already get paid for it.

So tell me about Nick Evans.

I wonder if CG and I are thinking of the same person, because the most underrated player ever in my eyes is also unselected. I figure I could get him in the 5th. Having said that, I would not have predicted Federov to be the second active forward taken. I can think of at least two guys I thought would go before him.

I think you miss out on a lot if you haven't seen the first three, because there are so many shots that are deliberately identical to shots from the original trilogy. EDIT: And for the record, the "I was too young to have seen them" excuse is retarded. Raiders was the first movie that wasn't a cartoon that I could actually sit through and watch, and it came out 11 years before I was born.

In fairness, I cannot imagine a worse place to have a Super Bowl than Jacksonville Florida.

He's played 245 games in his career. In those 245, he's scored 310 points. I crunched numbers last night. That's 1.25 points per game. So let's say he plays 1400 games. That's 1,750 career points, which would land him third all time. I pick Alex Ovechkin.

No, that's insanely dumb. The draft is designed to help the worst teams get better, and if the team picking number one has twice as many wins as the team picking number two, there's something fucking wrong with the system.
