NFL 2011 - Pre-Draft Thread

About what time will the Panthers be picking Newton? About a minute after that I'm going to start drinking or go to bed or start drinking in bed. Whatever.

I'll have the draft on, but since I'll be at my PC playing games, it'll be the TV that doesn't get the NFL Network. I'm hoping for a repeat of Chris Berman's wild gesticulation from last year to shut up Gruden when they came back from commercial.

Draft thread coming up in a little bit. Have to deal with some actual work stuff before I can goof off....

This flow chart cracked me up.

I'm skipping it to watch the draft.

You have to set your priorities . . .

I'm gonna go ahead and say this is probably not the best call. But we'll see if I change my tune a few years from now when my daughter is old enough for me to have been to a few such functions.

To clarify, he hates the music class and would rather not do it. I asked him specifically if he wanted me there and told him if he did in any way, I'd be there. He said he didn't care at all. I don't care, he doesn't care . . . my wife thinks I'm the anti-christ right now.

Give your son a cell phone. Text him the picks as they happen. That way you can be the good guy and a good father.

Clauson STILL does look like an asshole, though...........

That's why the Douche-Face scale is named after him.

Like cancer, there's four stages.

Stage 1: Douchiness from overly-exaggerated expressions (neutral face still somewhat looks like a semi-human being):

Stage 2: Stage 1 expressions, now permanently stuck. The realization of Mom's warning, "if you keep making that face, it'll get stuck that way":

Stage 3: Douchiness displayed on even the most neutral of expressions. Still possible to show some small shred of humanity, but takes Herculean effort to muster the expression.

Stage 4: Metastasized. Impossible to not look like a douche no matter how honest and genuine an emotion. Can be smiling with joy at the gratitude of poor African kids that he just built a school for, and will still look like a grade A jackass. Impossible to capture in mere photos - the douche-face's ability to remain intact throughout a range of shifting expressions must be seen in motion to fully comprehend. Jimmy Clausen.
