Monday Morning Mock Draft: F*ck It’s Hot

Guten Tag drones.

As you read this I am likely driving 90 minutes each way for a Court-ordered hearing that will last 15 minutes.  Also it is going to be between 90-95 and humid.  I’ll be wearing a suit, and on the way home I’ll probably be stopping at my mother’s to put in the window AC-unit that she bought two years ago for a dog.

Did us kids have ACs when we were growing up?  Much like the British, we did not.

In addition, as I write this I am patiently waiting for word from Mrs. Horatio that her plane is leaving Florida and I can pick her up in Hartford three hours from then.

I am writing this after 7 pm and, again, I need to be 90 minutes away from home first thing in the morning.

All of this is a way to a) pad the word count and b) let you know that I am putting exactly no thought into this.

This week’s topic has been pulled from the files of earlier suggested topics.  My notes indicate that, at some point, frequent contributor Rikki-Tikki-Deadly suggested Simpson’s Celebrity Guests.  So that’s the topic this week:  People who appeared as guest characters on The Simpsons.  The only qualifier I’ll put here is that they can’t be frequent fliers, so Phil Hartman is not eligible.

RTD gave me his first pick, Dustin Hoffman as Mr. Bergstrom.  Hence the featured image.

With the second pick I will take Wade Boggs as himself, because without him we would not have the “Lord Palmerston!  PITT.  THE.  ELDER” bar debate that I probably quote more than anything else from The Simpsons.

You asked for it, Boggs.

The rest of you are on the clock.

I’ll take Soul Brother #1 for my last pick. A man who knows the importance of double bolting a bandstand.

I just saw the banner quote and had to stifle my laughter so the Dr. Mrs. doesn’t ask me what’s so funny.

This would have been my second round pick if I hadn’t had to go “outside’ and do “things”

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I keep trying to tell you, going places and doing things SUCKS.

I can’t believe we all assumed the Space Coyote was already taken!

I’m going to see him tonight, with SIL. It’s been 49 years since the last time, guess I’m due!

Can I take the whole cast of cheers or do I need to pick one?

I figure they’re like the broncos and I can have the lot.

Never have been a big Bette Midler guy, but I don’t want to enrage her, either.

IRL James Woods is a reprehensible shitbag, but he was hilarious in his stint as a Quickie Mart worker…

2. Neal Patrick Harris. The timing of Homer’s line about “sleazy Hollywood producers” just as the Executive Producers credit runs is [chef’s kiss]

From Linda to Liz? Yes please. I’ll take the legendary Miss Taylor.

I never knew anything about the actor Luke Perry other than he was just a great sport about being Krusty’s assistant.

I had him on my board with a second round grade; well done. He was a good sport.

Aw man I never realized that was him, and that’s probably my favorite Halloween episode

I feel like that would normally fall under the frequent flyers rule

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I disagree (mainly out of self interest)

He better be strong AF. And ornery.

Ok, don’t remove him. Just whack his peepee!
