Menudo Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Just curious what everyone's plans were for Saturday. This is one of my favorite days of the year. A bunch of guys in my league are getting together for Beer, Food, Draft and Poker. I was wondering what everyone else had planned for the day.

Perchoutofwater Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I thought was going to get the day to myself, and that my lovely, if some what beotchy wife, was going to take the kids to vistit her friend in Dallas. As it turns out, my 6 year old has two make-up soccer games on Saturday, and the wife is still going to Dallas with the younger one. So, now I get to watch a bunch of 6 year old girls play two soccer games. The wife told me to Tivo the draft, not listen to the radio, and to stay away from you guys, so that I could watch the draft, when I get back, which really isn't a bad idea, I can fast forward it through all of Kipers bloviating.

Kansas State 2000 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 A bunch of guys in my league are getting together for Beer, Food, Draft and Poker. 787777[/snapback] Same thing here ... We have a group of us that go to the Dallas Cowboys home opener every year ... this year we are getting together early to plan the trip and watch the draft. We are having BBQ Ribs, Brats, Hamburgers and Salmon. There will also be a Texas Hold'em No Limit Tournament for NFL memorabilia. We may also have a drink or two ...

gcs Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 What time does the draft start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinL Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Cheer for the 12 year old playing volleyball at 9am, coach my son & stepson (both 8) at soccer at 1pm, and cheer my daughter (7) in soccer at 3:30. Probably between volleyball and soccer, go out to eat for my son's birthday. Watching the draft is not that interesting to me. Especially with the long delays in between picks.

juanruiz13 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 There's a 50/50 chance that I'll be at the draft. The whole process was screwed up last year, waited for 5 hours, and they didn't let us in. So I left right before Eli went on the board. Found out later, that the guys right by us got in around the 5th pick. It should be more organized this year, just sucks that G-men don't have a 1st rounder. http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/8364763 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Cheezhead Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 (edited) Wife is out of town for the weekend. Get off work 11 pm Friday night. Wake up 9:30 am Saturday. Crack open first beer at 9:35 am. Buddies show up at 10:30 am. Collect Mock Draft Contest entries and $10 fee at 10:45 am. Fire up grill at 11 am. Crack open 6th beer at 11:05 am. Slice into my legendary steak at 11:45. Sometime during the 2nd round, tablulate Mock Draft scores, award winner with $50 pot and liquor store gift certificate. Crack open 20th beer and bite into first bratwurst at approximately 3 pm. After round 3 ends, spend the next several hours drinking more beer and beating my buddies DOWN in Madden 2005 (we do our OWN draft in the game, then play each other with our own teams ). I can't friggin' wait. Edited April 21, 2005 by Swiss Cheezhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgemoe Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Was going to TiVo the draft and do yardwork but rain is expected so will probably just watch the draft. Oh, and will be setting up the new rotisserie for my Weber kettle. Couple of yard birds on the spit should do nicely to break it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loaf Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 (edited) I am going to a local pub. I hope I can watch most of the first day. Being the first day of Passover, I might have to head to the folk's house for dinner... Edit: confirmed, I will have to be at the folk's house. won't be having too many beers at the draft...good thing the Browns have the 3rd pick...hopefully they don't trade down so I can see their pick Edited April 21, 2005 by loaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
