Monday Morning Mock Draft: Hindsight Is 20/20

Another week done in the NFL.  This Thursday, (fun fact, I haven't watched a minute of any of the Thursday games, and my life is richer for it), we'll be halfway through yet another NFL, perhaps fittingly as the days get shorter and darker.  So it goes. I'll be honest, I

Monday Morning Mock Draft: SUDDEN CHANGE!!!

As our more astute readers will recall, we brought the Mock Drafts back in-season for the sole purpose of drafting things that we would change from the games on Sunday, as well as the previous Thursday and Monday.  It was such a hit that we got literally...several comments. Like Ryan Shazier,

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Hindsight Is 20/20

We're bringing back the Monday Mock Drafts, because the #content monster needs to be fed, and because things get a little thin during the week during the season.  The twist is that the topic will be the same every week, just like the CBS prime time line-up.  All Chicago, all

LaboUr Day Open Thread

Monday Morning Mock Draft:

Turns out it only takes me taking Friday off to get a four day weekend to forget what day it is by Sunday. It also didn't help that today is Labor Day, a day Americans celebrate by burning the flag and venerating our home shrines to Eugene V. Debs. I'll

Horatio Does The Draft: Buffalo Bills 2017

Monday Morning Mock Draft: All By Myself

Lately I've been watching 'Alone' on Netflix. 'Alone' is a show where 10 contestants got shipped off to some godforsaken and very remote area, then are left on their own until all but one of them taps out. The winner gets $500,000. Now, before Hippo runs out and volunteers

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Schadenfreude

Ah, German, the language of love. If ever there were a people inclined to have a specific word for taking joy in the misery of others it'd be the Germans. Also probably the Russians. You'd think the English as well. OK, look, they'd be white. Anyway, this week's draft

Horatio Does The Draft: 2017 Baltimore Ravens

As you may recall, I started doing mock drafts here in 2017. Or maybe you don’t recall: I didn’t, and had to look through the archives to find out. Holy shit there’s some stuff back there! Anyhoo, the average NFL career, across all positions, is 3.3 years. Some positions, kickers
