I'm leaving work at 4pm, hitting up Whole Foods for a 6 pack and grabbing some wings from my local pub...chipotle lime

I am the boss in my department but my boss is cool as hell and I can pretty much leave early when I want as long as I don't overdo it

big difference going to a small non corporate place; my old job I would have had to keep my door open and pretend I was at some meeting when I left at 4pm and hope I was questioned in the morning

At this year's NFL draft, the songs that play when the draftees walk out on stage will be chosen by the players themselves. It's going to be great, or terrible, or just the same Jay-Z song 30 times in a row.

Obviously, there's going to be an approval and censoring process, but imagining exactly how that's going to work might be the most fun in all of this. Will there just be one put-upon guy listening to all the choices, ending up on Rap Genius, and deciding what flies? Could the NFL just let any song through, and bleep out anything it decides is offensive? If it goes with censored songs, could something foul but esoteric make its way through? (Basically every Chief Keef lyric falls into this category.) Even if the songs end up being terrible—Manziel is definitely picking that damn Drake song—making fun of kids' taste in music seems more sporting than old men making fun of their suits and masturbating to their girlfriends.

Hilarious

So apparently they're gonna let the first 30 players pick a song to be played when they come up to shake Goodell's hand

So many awful songs will be played today....Wayne, Drake, Future.

Fans are supposed to be in the front today today too. Right by the stage

This all sounds super corny. Just have a draft Goodell and not a damn concert. ******* NFL.

I can't wait to hear the juxtaposition of songs. Mike Evans walking up to NWA followed by Bortles walking up to a country song.

Mike Evans is most likely coming out to some YMCMB song.


I would walk out to Dipset Anthem.

That would be soooo
Just imaginining that diddy bop as I hear wooooo oh yeeeeah awwww when it's starts off

It's too late to get "sick and not feel good"

:x

..we've come a long way.

 

[buc em]

Browns could come out of this 1st round looking really good this year. Evans or Watkins plus Gordon, Cameron, Hawkins, Burleson, Tate and that defense.....

Skinny knees or the better brother should do work with that.

 

[dmxfury]

..we've come a long way.

Have you? Missing the post season then.....missing the post season now


I kid, Browns can really take steps forward with a good draft. Not far off

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

Pharell- Happy
is def getting played

buy her a Bradshaw throwback so you can avoid this problem next year

I don't see why the Texans would take a QB with the 1st when they can get a solid 2nd tier QB to groom with their 2nd.

They need to take one of those 4 elite prospects. IMO Mack.

#NFLDraft #TBT: @clownejd as the No. 11 high school recruit, circa 2011.

 

[stillin729]

I'm still weary on Mack; I dunno what it is but something doesn't sit right with me

 

[Ricky D]

I hope Mack falls to Atlanta or we move back to get some extra picks

If you have the chance to take someone who could potentially be better than Navarro Bowman, you do it IMO. Bowman is a difference maker. If Mack is what scouts say he is he would make an instant impact next to Cushing and Reed IMO. More of a winning impact than Clowney... To me, for their defensive scheme.

She is a Who Dey fan, maybe I'll go with a Peter Warrick jersey

I'd go with Enter Sandman. Cliche but amazing

I'd take him; I just think there is a huge bust factor there

probably just scared he played college ball at Buffalo
