Monday Morning Mock Draft: Mother’s Day Edition

Once again I find myself remembering that Monday comes after Sunday and that Monday means mock drafts, but I only remember after 11 when I’m trying for once to get to bed at a reasonable hour because some idiot, (me), scheduled three depositions for Monday.

I will not be around much tomorrow, ( see “depositions, three” above), but I did have an idea that is either going to work really well or collapse with a thud.  We, or more likely you, will find out soon.

Yesterday was Mother’s Day, and I trust that you all had a good time either actually with, or speaking with, or reminiscing about your own mothers, no doubt all of whom are saintly creatures who couldn’t be prouder about the amount of time their son and/or daughter spends on a football and dick-joke blog when they really should be working.  The talk of the Mom’s neighborhood, I’m sure.

Well fuck that.  We’re not talking about saintly creatures today.  Today we draft mothers you would not want as your own.  Rules are simple:  Any mother is eligible, fact or fiction, human or otherwise.  Criteria is only:  Is it a mother?  Is it a really awful mother?  if you can answer ‘yes’ to both of these questions, you can draft that mother.

Also you can’t draft your own mother.  Save that for your therapist.

/slams door shut

Not that kind of draft, Bill, and anyway you’d just trade down and take a lineman from Alabama that Nick Saban told you was awesome.  Now git!

Anywhoo, with the first pick I’ll take our featured image up there, Joan Crawford of ‘Mommie Dearest’ fame.  Jesus that picture is terrifying.  No carnations for you, Joanie.

The rest of you are on the clock.  In my likely absence for most of the day I hereby delegate commissionership duties to Rikki-Tikki-Deadly, mostly because I like the way he gets drunk with power.

Given what has happened over the last few decades, Bill Cosby has to be right up there with regards to the worst mothers of all time.

Has anyone taken Mother Russia?

You did.

The Germans tried really hard.

Several times.

Also, Mrs. Collins from The Sixth Sense. That reveal kicked me in the stomach.

Just an incredible experience in the theater (knowing nothing)

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Same here. Plus, I was drunk!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah if I’d been on a fictional cycle she’d have been my Munchausen pick.

“Can’t believe Mother Theresa is still on the board.”

-Christopher Hitchens, shaking his head

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

[it is not clear whether the head-shaking is meant as a sense of disapproval, or simply an involuntary tremor as a result of not having ingested any alcohol in the previous fifteen minutes.

scotchnaut

Christopher Hitchens is a super problematic fella given his support of the Irag War but I’ll give him a pass because I at one time thought that Bubblicious bubble gum was far better than Hubba Bubba. Smart people make egregious mistakes sometimes. It happens.

*Iraq, maybe?

Remember Susan Smith? Strapped her two young sons into car seats then rolled the car into a lake? And blamed it on a black guy (because South Carolina)? May be out on parole next year.

Younger version of Ma Trump?

Melania Trump is still on the board? That’s great value.

Neither does she.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

That’s great value.

Is it, though? She just gives the impression that you wouldn’t get your money’s worth.

The unnamed bitch from People Under the Stairs.

BeefReeferLives

Last one for me. Mary Ball Washington. Apparently the mother of the father of our country was a right bitch, constantly demeaning, undermining and embarrassing him.

Come on, that’s just George Washington in drag, and someone already took Norma Bates.

4. Back to the real world: Dee Dee Blanchard.

Dee Dee claimed that [her daughter] Gypsy had leukemia, epilepsy, muscular dystrophy and that she couldn’t walk, confining the young able-bodied girl to a wheelchair whenever she had to leave the house, as well as forcing her to be fed through an unnecessary feeding tube, telling people she had the mental capacity of a seven-year-old and forcing her to take medications for illnesses Gypsy wasn’t suffering from.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

This fills my “Munchausen By Proxy” roster slot. You could fill an entire team with those monsters though, honestly.

BeefReeferLives

Livia Soprano was a real piece of work.

Kate Gossling. Basically any reality show mom

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Just look at the way she denies her thirsty child a drink of water, and then has some herself while the poor girl watches. That’s elite talent; you can’t coach that.

It’s the mom from Home Alone.

That was my fault, I think.

JFC. Do they go to the same hair stylist?

Gumbygirl

I think they use a cotton candy machine.

LemonJello

Welp, now you’ve got Big Cotton Candy all pissed off at us, Gumbygirl!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

And by proxy, Coach Andy Reid.

LemonJello

Eli is excited, but only because he heard “cotton candy.”

Eh, they melt at the first sign of heat. Pussies.

Mo’nique was almost too good in that role. Damn.

Precious based on the novel Push by Sapphire in league with Ghostmadam and produced in partnership with US Steel buoyed by Flash recommended to Boy! and loaned out to Vagueness

3. Fiction again, so I’ll go with Nola Carveth from the David Cronenberg film “The Brood”.

I’ll keep the Jessica Walter love going and take Lucille Bluth.

2. Kris Jenner, for a myriad of reasons.

Caitlyn’s no prize either.

I get that they are all related, but it looks like the same face just pasted on top of a few dresses, and then change the hair a bit

They all go to the same plastic surgeon. Over and over again. Eventually, their eyes will be on the back of their heads.

2. Alternating between fictional and real, I’ll take Tonya Couch, mother of famous “affluenza teen” monster Ethan Couch.

I thought she’d slide down the board further, guess I was wrong.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I feel like the acquittal is the NFL equivalent of “character concerns”. It’s a high-risk pick that you aren’t sure is going to pan out.

King Hippo

The First Lady of the #GunShow!

(EDIT – Since I misread the damned question, I pick Mary, Mother of Jesus. Because too much damned pressure.)

1. I’ll take Margaret White (Carrie’s mother).

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

This is probably the strongest #1 pick I’ve ever made in one of these drafts.

Redshirt

Kate McCallister. She has too many kids that she can’t keep track of their emotional needs, their behavior and their whereabouts.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Redacted! Wrong Kate.
