Really good interview with Bill Belichick regarding his history with the NFL draft.

Well, the Thursday, Friday and Saturday draft is complete. I hate the new format, but I hated having my weekend ruined by the NFL as well.

I think I hate the new format more.

I had ESPN radio on via my computer to listen to the draft. I had to turn the volume down when Colin Cowherd spoke. I've never had to do that to someone's voice before.

NFL Draft Thread & Schedule

Every year since there was Sunday Night Football, there was never any for the weekend in October when the World Series was going on.

I hate this.

I hate this because more times than not, the World Series features one of four teams I can't fucking stand, those teams being the other teams in the AL East. I refuse to watch any baseball involving New York and Boston, and Tampa Bay sickens me just enough where they can eat a dick, too. I'm not going to proclaim what would happen if Baltimore went to the World Series, because this website is in the non-fiction section of the Library of Congress, and I'd like to keep it that way.

Every once in a decade we get something like Detroit versus St. Louis, but for the most part the NFL takes Sunday night off. No longer!

The funny thing is that the Sunday in question, this year, is Halloween. Much like how August Strindberg has one remaining vice, and one remaining pleasure - absinthe - there's one holiday I still believe in, and that holiday is Halloween.

Even on a Sunday.

So, before today, I thought, great: I'll go out that night and not miss anything. The All-Stars the Yanks took from everyone else's team can play five-hour baseball against the Mud Hens or Red Wings, or whatever teams kill time in the NL.

In a continuing effort to be a fucking pain in the ass, the NFL decides to:

1) Play football during the World Series. Like, at the same time.
2) Play football during Halloween
3) Have my team play in this fucking farce.

I really can't explain how angry I am about all this. The NFL is a needy psycho hosebeast. "I don't want you going out on Thursday night! NoooOOoo! FINE! THE FIRST ROUND OF THE DRAFT IS THURSDAY NIGHT!" "I don't want you going out on HallooooOOOoOOweeeeEEEeEEennnnn FINE! THE SAINTS ARE PLAYING ON HALLOWEEN!"

Fuck the NFL. Not only will the Saints be on, but my doorbell will ring a hundred times. What a goddamn mess.
