Huskers were fairly high on my list if I would have gone another football school (along with undrafted..wtf why are they not drafted) but new conference, no more OU games etc make it somewhat hard to judge how they'll go.
I know some people don't care and just assume "well every team will be supported" but Nebraska football being pretty much the only interesting thing around kind of made them lose some imaginary points for me as well.

Huskies...pretty good pick imo. Basketball school with a surprisingly strong football program given their short history.

Edit: Oh wait undrafted was Georgia...somehow missed the pick

wow i fail. was thinking about taking that a couple rounds ago, but looked it up and thought i read somewhere that they don't play it in Olympic years (so just 3 out of every 4), and was told that it wasn't eligible. (my fault tho)

Actually, if not an annual event, it shouldn't qualify.

Whitegoose & Dyenimator each owe two picks, otherwise we're pretty close to being on track.

i'm annoyed my penn state pick didn't get more hate considering I hate them and just picked them to be funny. prob had to pick them two rounds earlier for a reaction. also prob should have made the post actually funny. it was pretty half assed

Okay, aejones already has a baseball team so I'm going to post my Rd 7 pick (nyc999 said I could go):

They have a nice long history of sucking, which led to...









But they've had some respectable seasons over the past 20 years and of course have a lotal fanbase. Nice guys, the Cleveland Indians. Tough to dislike.



Plus, now that my city has the Blackhawks, the Chiefs, and the Indians, I can get the Native Americans super pissed at all my politically incorrect mascots.

City
Manchester United
The Rose Bowl
The WSOP
University of North Carolina
Chicago Blackhawks
Kansas City Chiefs
Cleveland Indians

Yes, I've been PM'ing as we go along - feel free to pick.

I'm getting very close to calling this a draft free-for-all to finish.
