What will the NFL draft be without Jets fans booing?

    I'd go first round. Maybe second and third. There's some buzz on the local level about who your team picked.
    After that?
    Yeah, then it's background noise.

    Mizzou's idea is great.

    Can you imagine having it in Pittsburgh or Cleveland?

    In Jacksonville, they would have to be sure it's above "puppet show" on the marquee, though.

    The NFL would get the bigger dressing room than the puppet show.

    I have worked four NHL Drafts and it is infinitely better to work at than to watch as a spectator. If you don't know someone who has a very good chance of getting drafted I have no idea why you would go. I have seen kids who travel a long way with a large crew of family and friends who sit there for two days and don't get picked.

    Maybe better in the old days when you just had a bunch of executives sitting around a conference room.

    As a reporter, most of the "news" seems to be chasing down various rumors, usually involving trades and such. Everyone claims to have gotten the player they wanted and he'll be a future Hall of Famer.

    I miss the old helmet phones. Those things were cool.

    Damn modern technology.

    They gotta bring those back, maybe as docking stations or something. NFL would make a mint, just like on everything else.
