[Stymietee]

For those of you who can't wait for this draft to begin, I thought that I'd set the mood using video clips from one of my favorite movies.



We get pumped.............

8:00 start. Man I hate that. I have no idea when we pick but I know it's late.

Seeing as there is a real good chance we trade back, It will be well after 10 before we pick. Gives me time to watch the Caps beat the Penguins in game 1! ROCK THE RED!

I know, I've got the Caps, draft, and Red Sox/Birds all at the same time. Just wish it was Friday.

OK, here's the bad news, if each team takes 10 minutes, we get "on the clock" at 11:33pm. I'm retired, but I really feel bad for those of you who are still working in the EST zones. Guys/Ladies, get the rest that you need, there's always time to review the selection or moves made and post your thoughts.

sty, even us retired guys need our sleep. I'm going to view this as my Christmas morning tomorrow. I'll wake up early and see what Scot left me under the tree!

There is a chance that trading back means into the 2nd rd in which case nothing happens until Fri night. I am w/ you - the Caps game is real live action & possibly the best series in the whole NHL playoffs. Go Caps.

Scroll down on this bd & you will see a thread on this subject. Bottom line - media BS that really has no basis in reality.

Glad I live in Cali!

2 out of 3 ain't bad ... if the Caps win.

Old, not retired and have to be up at 4:00 a.m., but I will be up until the Redskins pick. Or unless the Caps have a 4 OT game.

For you gamblers out there...

So what's your story Cali? Do you live in California but are originally from DC?

Just gives more flexibility at 21 if they have him targeted in the 2nd.
