Draft Day Kool Aid


 I have to give the Chicago papers credit; they held out against the NFL juggernaut for as long as they could.  The Tribune even tried to find out how much it will cost to hold the NFL Draft downtown and what kind of inconveniences to expect.  But the big day is just two weeks off, and those pictures from the NFL’s PR people are so neat.  They’re going to erect something in Grant Park that could pass for a blimp hangar.  Oh my!

Don’t forget to visit Draft Town and Selection Square or check out the interactive stations! And remember what Mr. Vice President in charge of events said—it’s “not just an in-theater experience, but a massive free fan festival that allows so many more fans to experience the draft.”  Bah-bah, go the sheep.  Entertain us, and we won’t care how crappy a draft our team pulls off.  Or how high ticket prices will go in the fall.
Bah-bah.
