Mockery w/ Shen

So i apologize for not being able to twitter the draft. Technical incompetence + beer + heat + playing in a pool = a lot of mistakes. For example, we forgot about warner & drafted him a round later or 2 than where he'll likely go. Or how we were guessing when it came to draft spots. I'll give a round by round analysis, but first i'll talk about some of the highlights for the weekend. We were actually able to stay out @ a bar till about 1:30 drinking the night away. We did some girly shots and then shen and i finished off the night by doing shots of jameson, not jenna. It was a little dangerous for both of us. It was a good thing that we didn't try to smell it or we might have wussed out. We both had the same look of pain, heartburn, that was a mistake, i think i might hurl, and i need to get this taste out of my mouth and esophagus soon. Shen didn't get to his pass out while eating food phase where he's sitting and his head is tilting forward just inches away from his food. He was more giggly drunk and using a country accent to say, " cohme ooooohn bridget" over and over again. She was annoyed b/c she's usually more gone. To be fair, shen was drinking martinis while i was doing jack and diet. Surprisingly, we never heard blame it on the a-a-a-alcohol. More surprisingly, shen didn't hurl. The next day our ages came through as the girls and then shen felt some bouts of nausea. I was still standing strong as i had a margarita at lunch. I'm just exercising for vegas. The best line was when B said that you shouldn't be able to go to medical school if u went to a junior college like a & m. She was serious about it. I laughed and added some p to the ool. VJ and family came to visit and introduced me to the term vag-eterian. Once again, more p for the ool. I introduced Shen to referring to your significant other as Kate when you're getting an earful about blah and blah and blah.

Regarding our mockery, i think that wrs and qbs are of greater value than rbs early on. As far as drafters go, we both think that ben will make solid consistent picks. We also think that cliff and vish are more likely to make you turn your head w/ some of their later picks. Ash will be doomed & you better hope that he doesn't pick someone from your favorite team or it could be a long season for them. Sho will be taking percy about 2 rounds earlier than most and will quite proud of it.
Thanks to shen and b for hosting us. It was a great time once again.

Round 1

So you can see that the draft order wasn't right. I blame the heat and beers 3 or 4. Shen and I alternated picks. He believes that Ben will go Turner despite my warnings that Turner will be el busto this year. We're both interested in why VDW chose the 8 spot. He has the strategerie thing down so we're pretty sure that he'll be going Fitz unless someone falls from the heavens to him. Shen thinks that VDW also started the trend to avoid the earlier/middle part of the draft. The idea is that VDW gets a lot of respect so he knows something so we're better off picking near him. This is the exact opposite of any bright ideas that Vish may start. Ironically, I believe that Vish has made more $ than VDW when it comes to fantasy football. You still don't want to jump in the lifeboat if you see Vish at the helm if you could have VDW. If Vish had gills and was aquaman in real life, you still don't trust your life to him at sea. Sorry Vish, facts is facts. Shen was picking for Ash and tried to think of the player w/ a 1st round grade who was most likely to be a bust. I am sorry Sho. Cut to Sho shedding a tear as he sees a fellow Brownie lay waste to his Skins. This reminds me of an award given to the senior resident that the other residents would most like to take care of their kid, the white hat award. It was a big old Stetson cowboy hat. Sho won it and I told him that it only seemed right that an Indian got to win the cowboy hat. Vamsi won it the year before. Back to the draft, Shen said that Cliffy would do as he pleased and just say Brady.

Round 2
dennis moss
cliffy andre 3000
tim peyton
ash westbrook
vdw jacobs
sho megatron
vish wayne
josh brees
towns deangelo
ben jennings
shen panther steve smith
kras mb3

tim takes peyton. the question will be if it is in round 1 or 2. fyi, i've seen him last as long as early round 3. i got to pick ash's doomsday pick for round 2 and i said that westbrook was the next most talented player w/ an incredibly high bust potential. sorry uncle ben. we both agreed that josh loves him some QB and Brees won't get past him. towns gets deangelo which is the best value pick so far that wasn't associated w/ us having too much to drink. this shows how personal preference/bad decisions can have a player fall right into your lap.

round 3
dennis colston
cliffy ryan grant
tim welker
ash anquan
vdw owens
sho rodgers
vish ronnie B
josh d bowe
towns rodney white
ben PT cruiser (pierre thomas)
shen witten
kras marshall

unlike tim's poker, his early fantasy football picks are predictable. peyton and welker will be on his team. ash will be dooming the cards by taking anquan. it really won't be anquan's fault though. i see Warner going down w/ an injury and Leinart grinding down the Cards offense. do you really think that a 38 year old QB can make it through 2 seasons in a row w/o missing a game especially since his hip is still sore after surgery in March? Warner has never been mistaken as an ironman in the past. sho values the QB too and had rodgers last season. rodgers may actually have a better season than peyton as well. Vish loved ronnie 2 years ago and stated that he would have drafted him last year too if he wasn't watching some band practice. josh goes w/ some KC masterpiece love and takes the #3 WR on the current depth chart. ben had lucky pierre last year and takes him again. i called bullshizzle when Shen said that he picked Witten for himself.

round 4

josh t. jones

sho run dmc
vdw kevin smith
ash romo
tim addai
cliffy willie P
dennis d ward

all of the great receivers have gone off the board. this is where the great TE's start to go according to the websites. Shen and I follow suit. I believe that Josh got thomas jones in round 4 last year too so he'll feel comfortable and take him again. i don't know if the comfort logic holds true or if Shen and I had too much to drink and we were going w/ the least path of resistance to come to an idea in our heads. shen said that Sho would go Run DMc in round 4. i told him that if knowshon's healthy, he isn't getting past him in round 4.

round 5
kras dallas clark
shen desean jackson
ben mcnabb
towns v jax
josh ocho
vish antonio bryant
sho braylon
vdw schaub
ash evans
tim hines
cliffy cothery
dennis matty ice

so braylon joins alexander the great on my list of players i will never ever ever ever ever ever draft again. shen said that he couldn't be that horrible. i know that Shen's got cleveland in his blood so there might be some bias. i say that braylon's the thumbless receiver. don't draft players who make commercials for 5 hour energy drinks. last year the thumbless one and osi did and you saw how their seasons went. i'd rather have my player get knocked out for the year instead of seeing him go horrible for 3 games in a row and have a decent game and then go sucky for 2 games and so on and so on. no RBs went off the board as Shen and I were starting to fill for needs at WR and QB.

round 6
dennis stewart
cliffy royal
tim lewis
ash holmes
vdw knowshon
sho santana
vish walter
josh lynch
towns berrian
ben holt
shen anthony gonzales
kras grandmama

incredible value in this round in comparison to their ADP. i don't know about jamal lewis going that high though. i'm sure the alcohol had something to do w/ both of us forgetting about knowshon and lynch prior to their picks in this round. i seriously doubt that ben would take holt in this round as well. blame it on the a-a-a-a-alchol.

i'll stop after this b/c most of you already stopped 3 rounds ago. of note, fatty minus tequila and warner still weren't drafted after 6 rounds. i doubt that will happen in real life.
