It felt like only hours ago we were engaged wholly in the roller-coaster of the draft. You know, snubbing Charlie Adam, waiting for Bandit, skipping Bravespurs, and so on. Come to think of it, all of that shit actually just happened... So, I don't know why I'm being so damn wistful about it. Oh, it's because there is a 75 word minimum for these fan posts, and I suppose my babbling is somewhat preferable to the word "squirrel" being copy-pasted 75 times over.
Anyway, the draft is done. Let's sort out what remains of the rules, and then get to trading? Oh, and here is how the draft ended up turning out. If you are not in the league, feel free anyway to stop by and talk trash about how awful/full of gooners some of these teams are (mine certainly included).
