For the first time in decades I didn't watch a single minute of the draft. I'm still sickened by the whole Michael Sam incident but more for how it was set up and the fallout from it.
I also can't stomach Chris Berman anymore.

Anyways....that said, I didn't watch one minute of it on TV either.....listened to the local radio broadcast (Dallas' The Ticket, 1310) while doing household chores. 'Course, it was somewhat a shock for the entire broadcast crew (and listeners, as well) when Day Two started and the Cowboys took injured LB, Jaylon Smith.
I guess we'll redshirt him and just wait till '17.....hope this owrks out.
