Okay, so the new computer is finally up and running with even Strat working. Yay!
I managed to find a little time to conduct the solemn ritual of Ye Olde Draft Lottery to determine order among the 5 eligible teams. The accursed Santa Fe Gecko Lizards won last year's lottery and that must not happen again!!!
Following the time honored traditions, I performed all the secret rites to prepare. Then I wrote the 5 team abbreviations down on little pieces of paper according to their designated number of chances in the lottery: BOS (5), ROM (4), BAL (3), SFE (2), BRK (1). Then I folded the pieces of paper and put them in this year's Hat of Sorting, of the red Chicago Blackhawks variety, hoping that it would be sufficiently anti-Tomlinson. Then I picked from the hat to determine the 1st pick, 2nd pick, and so on.
With that out of the way, here's how it turned out...reversing the order for dramatic effect, although of course I had to start with #1 to be sure BOS had the best chance to win.
#5: BRK (no miracle here)
#4: ROM (falling from the #2 spot, uh-oh)
#3: BOS (there's your reward for 27 wins)
#2: BAL (congratulations, Aaron, but that means...
