NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread – SUPER PEJORATIVE BEDARDED PHASE TWENTY-SIX!

[ajgoal]

Back to @kudymen's home country for the first player on defence.

Team Futurehead #2: Daniela Pejšová, D (Czechia)

@Striiker

 

[Striiker]

Team Commando - Commander Shepard

Watching those great Halo 3 trailers led me to rewatching the Mass Effect trailers, which reminded me of this no-brainer pick.

@Hollywood Cannon

Speaking of fixing your brain, I finally watched "No Time To Die" last night. It was pretty good, all things considered. In fact, I probably don't give the modern Bond films enough credit. The old ones have some cool factor about them - unlike the similarly-regarded Steve McQueen film "Bullitt," which might be the biggest, most pointless pile of abject shit ever created - but for whatever reason, I have a prejudice against them. I also have a prejudice against Pierce Brosnan, just for being Pierce Brosnan, even though some of his Bond films and most of his Bond girls were OK and mouth-watering, respectively.

These Daniel Craig ones have been good, but I don't really get excited for them. I just hope that they don't start the new ones off with the 007 from this one. She is a charisma vacuum and is in no shape to be running around.

I’d be perfectly fine with never watching another James Bond movie. Casino Royale was objectively excellent. They’re mostly watchable enough, even the cheesy old ones. I’m just apathetic. James Bond is the Fast and the Furious of spy movies, without FAMILY.

Not trading Laughton last deadline

Not trading Walker or Seeler at their peak value earlier this season

Drysdale's arm falls off for the 3rd time in 2 years and now they'll say "our hands were tied, we can't trade away any defensemen anymore"

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I fell asleep for the last five goals yesterday. I have no regrets.

We start the day with @Hollywood Cannon on the clock, even though I am related to him and still want to call him Hollywood Couturier, @Young Sandwich all disgusting on deck, @CanadianFlyer88 on the lido deck, and Jojo on the lido afterdeck. Biff is still buffering. Biffering, innit.

I watched the first episode of "Foundation." You never know how these hard sci-fi stories are going to go, but it was good, and I'm happy to watch more. That's getting ever more rare. I read the beginning of that book a few times and liked it, but never finished it. I'm in the same situation with "Dune." I still haven't decided if I am going to try to read it again before I watch the movies. I guess I have until the second one comes out before I have to decide. So I will continue to relax for now.

"If you keep getting injured, we have to make a move anyway." So true. But not in hockey. Stand pat. Sell. And then sell some more.

Memories ... like the corners of my balls ...

Yosh.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Pick incoming.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Sorry for the delay (again). Two kids is brutal on the pick making.

So we're going to turn our attention to the Team Scientist category and we're going to select someone that may be a little bit in the grey area but it wasn't explicitly forbidden in the pick category description so I think we're in the clear.

We are proud to select, Walter White, as our Official Team Scientist.

While Walter White is an awful human being he was dedicated to the cause and we hope that he will be dedicated to our cause when we need him most.

@Young Sandwich you are up, my friend.

 

[Young Sandwich]

Look at our flower.

Team Flower - Clitoria Ternatea

It's pretty aptly named, eh @CanadianFlyer88 ?

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Time for our team Commando, I suppose. I saw this character's movie almost accidentally as a free video on demand option many moons ago now. I didn't expect to like it, but it ended up being thoroughly entertaining.

The Seattle Sockeyes are thrilled to select Sergeant Rita Vrataski.

Hey, @JojoTheWhale, got corn?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Team Ad: Mr. W

I’m short on time this afternoon, so I went to a top ads list to steal a quick writeup. Unfortunately once I found it on the list, I realized it was one spot below the RANCHZZZZUP campaign and my opinion of humanity is now slightly lower.

@Rebels57 Take your time. I won’t be back until 8 or 9.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Mel Kiper coming on TV in a minute. It's just another day in hairidise.

We start the day with @Rebels57 on the clock with a pair (phrasing), @JojoTheWhale on deck, @CanadianFlyer88 on the lido deck, and Syphilis Hoagie on the lido afterdeck. Also:

BIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!

I'm blessed. My website for "EXchange" started buffering the past two nights, and last night basically fell to pieces. I looked around and found a different site that is smooth as butter. Blessed.

 

[Rebels57]

Picks coming soon!

 

[Rebels57]

FOG Street Food - Since we have plenty of excellent savory dishes on the FOG Compound, we're going to choose GELATO in this category. Nothing like a creamy Gelato on a hot day or at the end of a night of drinking and debauchery.

With our 2nd pick today, the FOG select the highest ranking remaining Russia. We want to keep Michkov happy and help his transition to the Quackverse.

ROMAN KANSTEROV

I think @JojoTheWhale is up

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

In a bit of a hurry at the moment.

We start the day with @JojoTheWhale on the clock, @CanadianFlyer88 on deck, @Young Sandwich on the lido deck, and Cannon on the lido afterdeck. Plus a certain amount of useless meat which needs to evolve.

Yosh.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Shit, sorry. Go ahead @CanadianFlyer88. My great aunt passed (expectedly) and I've been cleaning out her apartment. Probably won't be home until late again.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Quick hit today. Our Goodwill Ambassador will be Keeley Hawes. Wanted to get her into the organization in some capacity and she already is an Ambassador for UNICEF in the Earth Prime universe, so now's as good a time as any.

@Young Sandwich

 

[Young Sandwich]

These little treasures are essentially griddled corn cakes that are then stuffed with meats, cheeses, and anything else your little heart might desire, before getting crammed into your face hole. Super simple and incredibly delicious. The perfect street food.

Team Street Food - Arepas

@Hollywood Cannon I hope your face hole is currently crammed to a level of your liking. You may proceed at your leisure.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Pick coming. HCette has been sick.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Alright here we go.

We're proud to select Panzerotti as our Official Team Street Food.

We had to go with something from the boot and this is what we landed on.

@Striiker I hope you've recovered from your carbon monoxide scare.

One of the best parts about volunteering at a carnival is getting these for free.

You can have them for free anytime you want when we make it to the Quackverse.

Back when we were young bucks we used to scrounge up loose change in couch cushions and whatnot at my buddy's house so we could order panzarotti's from Sal's in Marlton. The glory days.

Team Scientist - J. Robert Oppenheimer

@ajgoal hope your socks are wet
