The BMR Fantasy draft was last night. It began and was over with in 45 minutes, marking the only time that anyone willl have direct contact with me in a real time atmosphere. Please, in the future, go through my assistant (Schultz). I don’t want to analyze too many other teams, because I am sure you will all kick my ass (except the guy who ended up with almost all Islanders… I like my chances there). I thought I would share a few key mistakes I felt when making my picks last night.
– Going into the draft sober. I was at work, but it’s not like I haven’t been drunk at work before.
– Not establishing which of the Niklas/Nicklas Backstroms I ended up with. I think it was Nicklas, otherwise I made my pick way too soon.
– Naming my team after Dany Heatley, not drafting Dany Heatley.
– Failing to check Dustin Byfuglien’s incarceration status. I lucked out there… not in prison!
– Sharing a cab with Patrick Kane after the draft
– Challenging Scott Hartnell to a beard growing contest. Not challenging Hartnell himself, but challenging friends to growing a Scott Hartnell beard.
– David Kreijci
– Not drafting enough players I can make jokes about. Seriously, YOU come up with a one liner about Alexandre Burrows.
