I had to miss the draft last year and thought it was the worst thing in the world. But, in the end, it turned out to be not so bad at all - almost to the point where I wouldn't even mind if I had to miss it again.

The only drawback I found was that I didn't have as good of a grasp on what other teams did in the draft. It ended up taking a considerable amount more reading to really grasp what went on with the other 31 teams.

I'm about 80% sure I'm going. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with Sunday. I'm leaning towards Astros-Brewers but the part I hate is that most of the picks will be done on Day 2 and the talking heads are going to largely ignore them while regurgitating what happened on Day 1. So unless you are following the ticker, you don't know what your own team is doing.

So I'm going to sit at a sports bar and watch the first two rounds when important rounds like 3 and 4 will be missed which is where the good organizations separate themselves from the bad ones.

Okay, i'm set for this. I plan to leave Austin around 10 a.m. so I can get there a little after 2 p.m. Whoever is the first ones there, tell the waitress/hostess that we are the "In The Bullseye Draft Party" so that anyone who comes knows where to how to find us. I'll be wearing a Texans t-shirt and a Longhorns cap (one advantage to being a guy is your clothes don't have to match).

Sweet! Mine's dirty.

If I can remember to tomorrow, I'll bring some shirts with me in case anyone wants to hit me up at Nick's. I'm out of 2XL and small though... plenty of XL.
