Who will watch? I usually catch most of the opening night or at least keep flipping back to it to see who went where. Does Sammie go in the first? Where does Cameroon Artimus Pyle get picked? Does someone take an early shot at N. Marshall with his versatility?
Like I said, I usually watch some of it and yeah, I think the first day of the Draft is pretty keen. But, has this become the most over-hyped event in all of sports? Think about it. Since tOSU raised the trophy, it has been non-stop, every single day, wall-to-wall hype and coverage. First, it was the combine, which I get to a certain extent. But come on. At no point in a game, will an offensive lineman need to do a 40 yard dash. And at no point in any game will any player be required to perform a standing long jump. Every day, it's someone else's mock draft. Every day for months, it's a new show breaking down the draft. It's Chuckie going one on one with every potential draftee. It's a panel of former players grilling them later.
Just stop already so we can get this thing going and Chris Berman can spend the next 48 hours trying to be cute and funny.
