NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread – A WHOLE NOTHER PHASE TWENTY-ONE!

[BiggE]

So the most popular band ever is shit music

I tried, blame his idiot father

Ewwwwwwwwwwww

The Eagles are the worst.

 

[BiggE]

But sadly, the child was wrong. The Eagles are not the worst.

Post merging is the worst, followed closely by Kevin Hayes, Limp Bizkit, and women who consistently refer to all their friends as “girlfriend” in the most loud and obnoxious way.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

For Team Queen, the NJFZ need an accomplished pilot and pyrotechnician with experience in disastrous endings.

Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, First of Her Name, the Unburnt, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Breaker of Chains, and Mother of Dragons

@Captain Dave Poulin, her majesty wants her full title in the boxes. She can be a little nutty at times and I got a bit worried about that look in her eyes when we told her that you might not honor that.

@Beef Invictus - Flaming Beef! Fiery Beef! Crispy Beef! - bend the knee and make a couple of picks!

Good luck being nutty without any dragons.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

He seems to have completely forgotten who he is talking to. The only thing I have to decide now is who I put down in the boxes for him, and exactly how bad I want it to look for him.

We start the day with @Beef Invictus on the clock with two selections to make, the misguided @mja on deck, and @pit on the lido deck. Milord's dumb ass is on the lido afterdeck, but I have to figure out what the f*** happened with his latest f***ing defective pick. Every time I think we have reached the lowest depths of his stupidity, he shows me that there are endless fathoms left unspelunked.

The f***ing nauseating anniversary of the f***ing nauseating Immaculate Incomplete Pass is this week, and I can't. I just can't even. The KNOWN Steelers apologist and superfan father and son combo, Ed and Steve Sabol - otherwise great and legendary human beings who are responsible for so much of the greatness that imbues the NFL - were in charge of NFL films, and if you have paid attention over the years you will have noticed that we have never once seen the bottom of that football and the top of that field - not once in 50 years. If you see some tape now which shows it, you can be absolutely assured that it has been doctored. This isn't my hate and madness manifesting itself - this is just the truth, the result of 50 years of very careful observation. Everyone and everything associated with that play and that team (both teams, really, with the exception of Cliff Branch) can f*** right off.

But here's the thing. I learned something about myself, or rather was reminded of something about myself, when former United manager Alex Ferguson was taken to the hospital with a life-threatening illness a few years ago. I hate that person as much as I hate anyone - there is no limit to the amount of spite I feel for him and the amount of bile he raises in every fiber of my being. But it was not an occasion to celebrate. The sanctity of human life trumps hate, trumps spite, no matter how long it has been brewing and no matter how hotly it burns.

Rest in peace, Franco Harris.

Good luck being nutty without any dragons.

Here, let me re-introduce you to the NJFZ Official Team Trial-by-Combat Champion:

He seems to have completely forgotten who he is talking to. The only thing I have to decide now is who I put down in the boxes for him, and exactly how bad I want it to look for him.

Ok, I'll go back and tell her as gently as possible right now, I'm hopeful she'll be reasonable.

I like my Queens alive.

 

[mja]

I like my Queens alive.

I can assure you that that aunt-f***ing, know-nothing, literal back-stabbing bastard will not be joining us in the Quackverse.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I can assure you that that aunt-f***ing, know-nothing, literal back-stabbing bastard will not be joining us in the Quackverse.

He's already is in the Quackverse.

 

[mja]

He already is in the Quackverse.

As a character on my team TV show. He will not likely be making an individual appearance.

You don't understand the ways of the Quackverse. He's already there. That doesn't mean you can control him. You can try but we just don't know.

He likely wasn't going to kill the Queen either and then he did. You can send him to the "wall" but then he'll just die and come back.

I'm just saying...

 

[Beef Invictus]

There is an unsubstantiated rumor that I could be up. Please hold while I confirm.

 

[Beef Invictus]

It is true! Thank you mja! Jumbled mja! Confident mja! Pumped mja!


THE ELEMENT:

URANIUM

Uranium and its isotopes will be important. My arena is going to have extravagant energy demands, so I will have nuclear reactors on site to generate power. Uranium does this. Nuclear power is the coolest. Uranium is the coolest. Put it in glass and it glows green. Slam it together hard enough and one of your rivals can be turned to ash. It is powerful.

 

[Beef Invictus]

TEAM ARCADE GAME GO

VIRTUA COP

The revolutionary shooter. First to be 3D, first to allow aiming for individual body parts. I sank a ton of hours into the arcade and Saturn versions of this.

This was a really hard category. There's a few dozen things I think I could take.

Impolite mja! Temporary mja! Simplistic mja!

@mja

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Rebels57 have you had a chance to think any more about your pick?

 

[Beef Invictus]

@Rebels57 have you had a chance to think any more about your pick?

Give him until 3 to sober up enough to fend off the DTs for pity's sake.

 

[Rebels57]

@Rebels57 have you had a chance to think any more about your pick?

Wait which pick? I amended my pick from yesterday already.

 

[mja]

Thank you, Beef! Kind Beef! Insouciant Beef! Fatty Beef!

Going to lean into parental nostalgia for Team Children's Book:

I read this and its sequels to my kids hundreds of times, doing the all of the voices of the various characters as the kids chimed in telling the pigeon "no" repeatedly, crushing his dreams. And besides, as everyone knows, buses are simply land blimps and you can't let a pigeon drive one because that would surely lead to disaster.

@pit, you didn't let the pigeon drive the bus, did you?

 

[BiggE]

Musing a bit on our next selection will be the Methgators official color commentator

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

You sneaky bastard, I didn't see that.

What did I do? I made a stellar pick, if I don’t say so myself, for our talk show host.

I don't understand why @pit thought that was his wildcard or what happened with that. Now shut your hole.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I'm hitting the road until tomorrow late afternoon or evening, so if I come up before then, skip me and I'll get to it when we're settled.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Ah so you are beating up the road. Very wise.

Making this one nice and easy.

Retro Clothing Item: The Nintendo Power Glove

This item of clothing was so important they made a movie called The Wizard with Fred Savage to unveil it.

@Captain Dave Poulin , in relation to the @Lord Defect question, I just acknowledge that I foolishly tried to make sense of whatever it was he was doing and that is folly.
