yeah seriously, wrigley makes for one of the funnest sporting experiences in the US. you packers/cubs haters have clearly not been to enough games.

bulls is an awesome pick because they had the best competitor/athlete/sportsplayer of all time

future, freese > the whole cubs lineup

cliffs lol cubs
you're weird. maybe it's where I grew up but most of the people I know have an incredibly respect for the wrigley experience. I know hundreds of cubs fans and 50+ sox fans and I can't name a single one who doesn't respect and love the hell out of wrigley.

you have the choice, you can say 'wrigley is a toilet' or you can say 'wrigley's prob the world's greatest way to get drunk'. literally don't know a single person who says the former.

but whatever enjoy your comfortable chairs and state of the art urinals

No, Jamee is skipped but the clock doesn't start again for 4 more hours and then it's nyc999's turn. Then you.

If we're going by 2 hrs for Rd 2 then nyc has until 11am Eastern. But I imagine he'll pick as soon as he's awake.

At least two teams are clearly ahead imo.

Alright I'm skipping Jamee because if he's in Europe he should have been up for several hours, otherwise he should have picked last night.

I'm taking AC Milan, writeups coming this morning. Will PM next person. Clock officially begins at 9am EST so Marek has until 11am.

Giants/Bulls/Cardinals was a very strong pick run, was strongly considering the latter two for this round.
"Ultimate Sports City" Draft Thread Quote

Yeah AC Milan was one of the two I had clearly > Arsenal

EDIT: Bulls obv best NBA team on the board
#1,#1 in their sports on my board...Bulls post while great is missing the GOAT intro
I think the Giants would have been #1 on my NFL board as well but I didn't think about it too much because I'll probably take my NFL team in the last round anyways



Still gives me chills these days.

i'd be interested in trading up, i don't pick for 14 picks so its probably too far away now, but as we get closer to my pick maybe someone will want to trade down

Yup. My theory has always been that Cubs fans actually like that they never win. If they finally do win it all, they'll be overjoyed for a week or so but then fall into a depression because they will have lost their identity.

Grand Prix of Monaco in Formula 1 might not be very popular in USA, but its a clear no.1 racing event in the world, its popularity in Europe/Asia is immense, brings incredible financial value and prestige to the city

Write up to come.


EDIT: Monaco is a sick pick. Pretty high on my bucket list.

I think Monaco is spewy. I mean yeah there's some prestige and all but that's mostly related to the city it is held in (imo). It's just one race in a series of races.

Nice picking boys

I see I'm up in 4 picks. I'm probably going to be sleeping for the next 6-8 hours, so if it gets to me, give me like 40 minutes to wake up and then skip me.
