NFL DRAFT UPDATE
We are now in the 483rd scintillating hour of the NFL Draft, and it just keeps getting better. The Dolphins, with their 92nd pick, have selected a little-known linebacker our of Eastern Southwest Texas State College and University who looks like he could be very effective against the run.

I'm sure he had had a lot of practice stepping lively over fields.

That's "effective against the runs" Dave. Aren't you sweet to be there for Michelle?

Sure he wasn't the top pick in the cheerleader's draft?

He'd look gorgeous in the aqua uniform.

How can you speak ill of American Idol like that? Where is the new generation of Barry Manilows going to come from?

Are we there yet???
*smooch* El!
I happen to know you watch AI!

*AHEM*
I was not speaking ill of AI. Siouxie is right. This is my first year of watching it and I am hooked. I was just making a point to Dave.
And Steve, I hardly think you could compare Daughtry to Manilow.
*plops in hammock with mimosa and waits for multiple apologies*

As a proud alumni of ESTSC&U I've actually had a chance to watch that kid play. He's quick to the ball and an aggressive tackler. Especially when it comes to retrieving a loose ball in a dog pile. ;)

Rick, all I know is that we got this dude with a bad groin. OY!
Posted by: Siouxie | April 27, 2008 at 12:58 PM
...or a 'dogie' pile...

Sorry, Eleanor, I don't know Daughtry.
I know Dauterive.

They are soiling the Yankee game by cutting in with an NFL draft update. The announcer at the draft was a no-show (zzzzz?), so there was dead air.

Best name selected in the draft so far...Early Doucet from LSU.

Are you not a Rock 'n Roll guy, Steve?
Posted by: Eleanor | April 27, 2008 at 03:33 PM
Man, I love Daughtry, His CD is "la bomba" as we, in the Cuban ghetto say.

Are 'jazz hands' desirable in a linebacker? I would've that was more a running back charactistic.

Eleanor, I am a man who loves to groove to the oldies...
Posted by: Steve Haller | April 27, 2008 at 05:01 PM
Darn! I'm out of ammo.

Whoops! That comment was supposed to have been for a different post.
But maybe funny anyway.
