MBBRL 2016 SUICIDE DRAFT

[Yellow Fuzzies]

Plus I think his QB is vastly underrated. The last 3 years, only 4 QB average more passing yards per game than Rivers. And only 3 QB average more TD per season.

But he is so irratating.

But he is so irratating.

Actually. I kind of like him.
Must be a divisional thing?

How can you not like this...

he has been hated in Denver for years. but I do like his game.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Damn, I'm old. I was there. No, seriously I was really there. It was hot as hell. I think they said there was over 200K peeps there. It was hot. I am old. Good night guise.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

I was here too. It was fun. Oh, and really hot too. I guess it has taken me 30+ years to ask: For 2 supposedly smart ass fucks, why would "The Steves" put on a concert in the middle of nowhere in the middle of summer? It used to be called Glenn Helen Park, but they changed the name.

I've always liked him. Love the fire, the heart he had. And even when he comes off as juvenile, he's still not over in a corner pouting, he's in his teammates faces, calling them out, correcting their wrongs, doing what leaders do. He's just a little more public with it than most would prefer.

I was 8 and 7 for those 2 events

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Here is the line up for the first one. I stayed for the first 2 days. Had to leave. Because it was hot. Honestly, Day three bands sucked floppies so we left. And it was hot.

But.......................WERE YOU THERE? Lmao!

 

[TREFF]

But.......................WERE YOU THERE? Lmao!

Lol..no. I was probably in the city pool in Lexington Ne..or possibly, during September, either in elementary school, or dove hunting with the old man and grandpa

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Oh, one last thing before we get back to football..................I am old, but not like Joe or Lefty old.............just wanted to make that clear.

 

[tlance]

I had to pick someone Sammy. Who would you have picked from your team?

That's the thing. When am I right?

I am honestly a little shocked not to see more rookies on your leaky side knowing how you feel about them.

 

[averagejoe]

Rookies have their place.
If you're drafting them late for depth, or because of their potential/situation, I understand.
But if you're drafting them as your starters, swinging for the fences, count me out.

Best concert I ever saw hands down was Queen. Everything, the lights, the music, the vibe - awesome.
Most fun I had at a concert was Cheap Trick outdoors, especially after the food fight broke out.
Van Halen and Rush were always quality shows.
One group I regret not seeing live in their heyday: Aerosmith

 

[TREFF]

Ugghhh..headed to the airport, vacation in paradise is over. But one thing to look forward to. .the 5.5hr flight to LA where I'll finally get to sit down and critique everyone's teams/picks

 

[Barilko]

speaking of Rookies i saw Rush for the first time in 1975 they opened a triple bill with Nazareth on 2nd and 1 of my all time favourite Guitarists

Rory Gallagher

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

I am 60 so I am older too. I grew up in the Aspen Valley in Colorado when things were a little loose. I have a pin that says "I may be old but I got to see all the cool bands". I went to a lot of concerts in the '70s- I can't remember all that I went to and some that I did go to are a little fuzzy. Some of the highlights:
-Crosby, Stills Nash and Young at Mile Hi Stadium general admission on the field, 20 feet from the stage.
-Rolling Stones
-Pink Floyd for their Dark side of the Moon concert
-Black Sabbath in 1973 when Ozzie was still coherent
-Eric Clapton
-Bob Dillon while he was still accustic
-Led Zeplin
-Stevie Ray Vaghn
-George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers
-REO Speedwagon
-ZZ Top
-Leon Russell, Johnny and Edgar Winter
-Jimmy Buffett

My all time favorite would have to be the 5th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival in 1977- 3 day event (this year will be 45th annual). Went with 10 guys with 4 wheel drive vehicles and we camped on the mountain overlooking the venue (can't do that anymore). Oh and by the way, I met my wife that weekend and we married 5 years later.

glad to know you boys love/d your music as well


im certainly a monster Rush fan tremendous live show their use of modern technology is incredible and they up the anti every tour im guessing i have seen them 12 to 14 times

i was lucky enough to see Aerosmith in their prime

Van Halen as well on their first 2 full blown North American tours

Cheap Trick rolled through Montreal many times first as an opener and then a headliner

Ill tell ya one band that were monsters here before they became household names

your own Styx
on the tour when they normally played small theaters and clubs they headlined a very sold out Montreal Forum
The band was totally shocked to the response they received up here
