I can't wait. Have to head over to the store and get my bucket of straciatella yoghurt. I should be off work by 23:30. Draft starting at 1:30. I really hope to see you all in the chat.

This is absolutely my favorite part of football. I like it better than the games.

Me too. The draft and cut down day are two of my favourite times of the season.

And I find pre season games are as fun as regular season because it's our first chance to see the current team play after the long off season.

I agree with Rock.

The draft is one of my favourite "Game Days" of the NFL season, and I do consider it as the 17th game of the season for The Packers and Raiders.

I was blessed to have attended the draft in New York, I was also blessed to be in Pittsburgh at the time of the draft and go to their draft party at the stadium.

The thing that pisses me off about this year is that there is THREE DAYS OF The Draft, and that is going to really take away from a draft party in NFL TEAM VENUES....

I guess the NFL feels it is all about T.V. Ratings now and not the Fan Experience.

I would usually say this, but I'm not sure about the new setup. I always liked getting up early Saturday and Sunday morning and preparing to watch the NFL draft. Now it runs three days. I'm not sure how that is going to go.

yeah I JUST found out the new setup and...wtf?!

I love my weekend drafts where I don't leave the house at all and get ass sores from not leaving my seat. I don't like this one bit!

RP, what's it like being at the draft?

I've always assumed it must be a pretty awful experience. At home you get to see Eisen, Mayock etc chatting away filling the time between picks, you get to hear their reactions at 'reaches' etc. On TV there are also reams of highlight footage of each pick after they're announced. At the draft itself, are you not spending hours watching an empty stage?

As for the thre day thing, it means I now have to take Froday off work and stay up crazy late Thursday and Friday night. But I assume for you guys in the US timezones it gives you a whole extra day to consume even more draft coverage. Personally I prefer the previous set up.

I hear split is likely to benefit teams picking high in round 2 or who have a lot of round 2 picks (Pats).

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (1h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks

Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.
