Avoid the Draft and You Won’t Get the Fever 0

Sports writer extraordinaire Bob Molinaro explains why NFL draft and the attendant fuss is, as my mother would have said, the biggest nothing. Old timers remember when it was enough to read about it the next morning over coffee, without the beer and ripple chips.

There is more live action in an episode of Sponge Bob.

The TV coverage of the draft is hype, a scam, a con, a something-made-from-nothing so that ESPN can sell higher-priced commercials. It has no other reason for being.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
