Monday Morning Mock Draft: Order Up!

I don't remember my maternal Grandmother ever cooking.  She must have, because she raised 5 kids and none of them starved before reaching adulthood.  Of course one of those kids was my aunt and godmother, (and it turns out the one who bought me that Leroy Jordan jersey and turned

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Shut Up Already

Good morning drones.  As you read this I'm probably off on a week's vacation, heading north to Montreal, possibly Quebec, and definitely some breweries in Vermont on the way back. I still have to pack, I'm not sure where my passport is, and at some point I need to solidify what

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Don’t Get Board

Inspired by some controversy in last week's draft about movies based on disasters, this week we're going to be drafting board games.  The rules are, I hope, very simple:  if it's a game that involves a board, you can draft it.  If it's a game that does not involve a

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Jesus, What A Disaster

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Hey, Not So Loud!!

(I can't think of a decent featured image for this one; someone hit with me some little people!) Greetings, folks.  I write this after having gone out to dinner with some friends who know the owners of the restaurant, (and who I suspect bankrolled at least some of it), and let

Monday Morning Mock Draft: Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!

Greetings people who are looking to avoid work on a Monday.  Today I'm avoiding it entirely, because I took the day off.  Why?  Because I realized that I have something like 360 hours of stored up vacation time and I can't cash it out, nor can I even donate it
