Is it just me or did this go from 0 to fucking 189 this year? This is so cringey and awful.
I feel like this really all just happened this year. It wasn't that long ago where most every pick was Goodell and then you'd get a military veteran, make a wish kid, legacy from the franchise about to make their pick, etc. mixed in here and there. Also, even the guests would mostly just read the pick. These guys are making this entirely about themselves with entire prearranged stage or comedy acts. It's so self indulgent and completely takes away from what this is about. IMO
Imagine you work all your life for this one moment. Your name to be read in the NFL draft. Then, some video game streamer in body armor, a spandex, and a mullet comes on in sunglasses and reads it in some fucked up awkward robot voice. Or somebody makes it their dumb little comedy routine. Your name becomes a total sideshow.
Yuck... I don't need it to be completely stiff. But this is way too much.
