SPORTS: NFL DRAFT THIS WEEKEND

*Originally Posted April 21, 2008*

One of the greatest weekends in the sports calendar year, there's nothing better than sitting around watching Mel Kiper talk about college players. Especially since the first round takes somewhere in the neighborhood of six hours, the anticipation and buildup when they finally get to your team and make the pick (met either with joy or disappointment), it's a great feeling. For a lot of these fans, what happens in those six hours could make or break their teams for years and years to come. The draft weekend also provides us with a look at some history. We see all the busts, the Jet's fans booing yet again, and of course, the 6th-round sleepers (cue the Tom Brady reel). Enjoy the weekend, sports fans...Go Steelers.
