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).

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
