2007 YouAreMyFantasy Baseball Draft
well, i’m sure everyone was jonesin for an update on the fantasy baseball draft update. i know it’s like a monkey on my back.
well, we were very excited that our draft angel was still there this year and had not indeed been killed by the fans of the Dominican team last year. as you can see below, when she is near, all other girls (and one dude in a red shirt) just fade into the background.
here the Braves ground crew executes the “chain of water”. Masterfully done, guys.
this guy is a huge napoleon dynamite fan (i can only surmise).
and this guy with the woeful batting average didn’t get drafted at all. not even by missle mike. i’m not even sure he got his name on a jersey.
here missle mike gives his evaluation of smoltz’s draft potential.
this kid was “protect[ing] the house.” there is no excuse for allowing your kid to wear this shirt. none! it is never hot enough that he needs that much “wickability” and he’s never doing anything where muscle fatigue is that much of a potential problem.
speaking of things you should never let your kid do…..
if you’re ever on an operating table and you look up and see the face of a doctor that looks anything like that kid flee. flee very veeeery quickly.
we still haven’t set up the oft-referenced and much anticipated brad v todd sprint showdown but we did find someone who could likely pace the two racers.
the draft itself featured all the pageantry and spectacle that you one would expect. here we offer up a 5 car bomb salute as missle mike makes his first pick of the draft and begins his annual string 17 rounds of misinformed and unadvisable decisions.
as we are a very cultured group, we decided to learn more about other cultures during the draft and winged on over to china.
what we discovered was SHOCKING!!! china is actually tiny. i tower over even the tallest buildings and “not the legend” even comes up to 3rd floor windows. i think we should use this newfound knowledge to force the chinese to allow the yuan to float freely on the currency market. if they refuse, we send not the legend over to “negotiate.”
here larry climbs the “oh-so-famous” mount nipple. i’m not sure of of the historical significance of the natural feature, but larry felt it worth scaling.
that’s about it for coverage of this year’s draft. for some reason i did very little photographing and filming this year. i promise to do better next year – yeah, like you care.
