My "work assignment for the day" was to write a story about the guy. So I got up at 10 and paid attention to the draft until 7 p.m. and waited for the guy to get taken, interviewed him and wrote a story.

Is that good enough for you?

If this was your assignment, then yeah, you were supposed to sit in your chair and do nothing while waiting for the guy to get drafted.

But then again, what do I know?

Forgive me for expecting you to do your ****ing job. So sorry it handcuffed your day.
 
And I did my ****ing job. What's it to you? Who ****ing **** in your Metamucil you crotchety old ****?

For the second straight year, I had to watch this ****ing calamity all the way until the end to wait and see if the dude I covered was drafted.

I demand those five hours back.

I did this as well today. It wasn't fun.
 
I'm not the one bitching about the draft "handcuffing my day." You are.

Pretty simple. Do your job, If you don't like it, get the **** out before your sorry ass gets laid off.
And **** you with your "crotchety old ****" bull****. I expect my people to do the job they're asked to do without being whiny little *******. And my guess is you're nowhere near good enough to work at my place.

Go back to playing video games.

***** at spnited all you want. I got upset with your post as well. There is a separate thread for the NFL Draft haters. Take it over there. I have enjoyed not having to read through the bull**** on this thread. It was a nice change of pace for SJ.
 
Boo-****ing-hoo, Cosmo.
Too bad your job entailed sitting home all day waiting to see if you had to strain yourself and make one ****ing phone call and write a story.

Life sucks, doesn't it.
 
JFC, spnited, back off. There's not reason to be an asshat. I have no idea what Cosmo said in his initial post that set you off. It was pretty standard.

SC, for me, I got upset because, for one of the few times I have noticed in my limited time here at SJ, there was a thread for the Draft (for those that genuinely care) and an anti-Draft thread (for those that don't.)

I believed that Cosmo's post about hating the NFL Draft belonged on the other thread. I was enjoying reading the opinions from people more educated than myself without having to weed through all the hatred BS. So it hit a nerve with me when he posted.

Sorry SC. If his job was to monitor the local kid, he can't "demand those five hours back."

Yes, it sucks. But if that's what he got paid for today, he should STFU and do his job.

And there's still no reason to act like a complete and total jackass over what he wrote. None. Nada. But whatever floats your boat. I'm done.

OOP -- How long before you start a thread titled "Ziggy Hood, future Hall of Famer....."

OK, sorry, had to....

Of all the bizarre things to come out of the Bay Area this weekend, this one might take the cake.....

Is this guy ****ing for real?

He thinks there is a bias against Al Davis and the Raiders and that is why people criticized their asinine decisions this weekend?

What planet is this guy on?
That would be Devil not OOP.

Which player or players have I annointed? I'm just curious to your response.
Oh I don't know, didn't you have Woodley going to the hall of fame after 2 years?

The potential to go to the HOF, and how many other guys ever have had multiple sacks in EVERY playoff game? And how did Arizona's last play of the SB end?

Remember, I starter talking this kid up around Week 2.
 
What this board really needs is more people telling others where to post and how to do their jobs.

It's a ****ing message board.
