TLGTrico 663 Report post Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) I'm preparing myself for immense disappointment on April 9th. At least 3 of our last 4 are against teams that should beat us handily Edited March 30, 2019 by TLGTrico Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finishing 5th from the bottom and drafting 7th overall would be less heartbreaking than finishing 31st and picking 3rd.

But Bert is the coolest guy on the team, just like his uncle. Look at him, thick lettuce, dirty white trash facial hair, backwards snapback, cares about nothing, missing teeth, mad style, massive swagger. Dubs is the preppy doosher. Clean cut, good at what he does, massive caterpillars resting over his eyes.

Picking top 3 is way more appealing than picking 7th I'm just talking about levels of disappointment. For me, personally, going into the lottery draw as the 31st or 30th team would be almost unbearably stressful because of the potential for having The Dream snatched away from you and gifted to some assholes like Edmonton or Buffalo. I mean, don't get me wrong -- I'd gladly take a last-place finish. But the potential for lottery draw disappointment, re: (not) getting Hughes/Kakko, would be huge.

Some teams do the first steps well but never find that last one. 2 Neomaxizoomdweebie and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
