SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
The Thursday-Saturday draft was interesting as a novelty, but now that it's routine I hate it. It's not convenient and too much else is going on. I loved devoting an entire Saturday to the draft.

Seriously, when is dragging something out ever a good idea?

Just saw the news about the Kings - giving KJ a chance to help make Sac work for them.
That puts a noteworthy twist on the national observance of You Can Run But You Can't Hide Week (which kicked off yesterday), with the Maloofs declaring: "we ain't gonna run".

Dear NFL,
Your new draft format sucked. You took a weekend event, tried to make it Prime time, and I dont think anyone cared. Please go back to the Sat/Sun format.
Sincerely
A guy that always got a keg and had a "draft" party on the first day.
