BOARHOGZ Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Just curious how everyone gets into the other team owners' heads during the draft? Offer trades? Pump them full of Booze? Meow like a cat every 30 secoonds during their picks to drive them insane? Drop leaflets? Play Christina Aguilera music loudly? Lets find out the Psyops factor of the draft.....

westvirginia Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I pick my nose, then slap them on the shoulder and say "good pick"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLGRAF Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I keep an eye on what they are eating at the buffet (we usually have some kind of spread), then eat all of it right in front of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynch Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Sneak some chocolate pudding into the bathroom with you and come out with some on your hands and if need be you face. They won't think about the draft at all as you lick it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Furley Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Lynch...thats sick. I usually try to talk trades with them, with no intention to actually trade whatsoever. Just to mess with their heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynch Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Lynch...thats sick. 908687[/snapback] I haven't ever done that. My cousin did it during our draft two years ago. It really messed with my head. It asked for things that will throw someone off. I am not saying that it isn't gross. I am saying that it caused me to turn in the wrong pick.

BOARHOGZ Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 I use a spell-checker. 908704[/snapback] "I think the 2 guys with the best opportunity to be starting sooner rathe than later are Frye and Rogers. Given that you have Favre, and Rogers being the heir apparent, I'd probably opt for Rogers as well." .....obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOARHOGZ Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 One suggestion I read somewhere..... Get to the draft early, leave a (slightly believable) bogus cheat sheet with highlights, etc. Then leave to "go get some beer". Someone ill-prepared or just plain nosey might take the bait.

FWIW, the reason I didn't asnwer your question was that I'm 34 years old, and the other members of my league are of similar ages, and we've all been in the league for 5 or 6 years. Head games aren't going to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt they'll work in mine either, but, if someone did that chocolate pudding thing......... Anything for that extra little uummmpph. A bit of humor is always good too.

What I normally do is just wow them with my superior skills and knowledge. I drop it Policy style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 You can always draft a guy out for the year or that retired... it'll get in thier heads. One year, the a big time PAcker fan in out league said this: "I can't believe he fell this far, but I'll take Edgar Bennett." This was in about the 11th round and was the year he had blown out his knee early in camp. No one could stop laughing. One guy laughed so hard he literally puked. Now, if the thought of someone laughing so hard they puke doesn't get in your head, nothing will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I don't look at my printed out ranking sheets until the 5th or 6th round while they flip through their books... they start wondering huh?...especially since I have a track record for making it to the championship... people often make comments about it...my arrogance precedes me..
