Wjbrown3 is holding a drinking game for the NFL Draft. Below are the rules...no Chris Berman Deu Deus. Gotta go to Canada for those.
RULES
Drink once every time one of the following phrases is uttered, drink twice if Mel Kiper says it:
"Tremendous upside."
"Best athlete available."
"Drafting for need."
"Intangibles."
"Physical specimen."
Any mention of the scouting combine.
40-yard dash times, bench press, vertical leap.
If a player is described as a "project", or "sleeper"
Any analyst disagrees with the pick made
Drink twice if:
Your team's picks scroll by on the ticker.
Fans boo their first-round pick.
Whenever ESPN cuts to a team's war room.
Camera shot of draftee at home with family.
Draftee at podium is wearing an obnoxiously colored suit (green, purple, yellow, sharkskin), a derby hat or hopelessly gaudy jewelry.
Draftee at podium pulls on jersey of new team with number "1" on it.
Kiper calls a pick a "steal" because he had him listed higher on his draft board.
Chris Berman segues from a pick with a contemplative pause and then says something like, "Hmmm ... an interesting pick for [team] at this stage of the draft."
A player from a college you've never heard of is picked.
Kiper starts getting on your nerves.
Tom Jackson lets slip one of those high- pitched giggles that sound funny coming from a former middle linebacker.
Draft pick slips because of "personal problems."
The highlight footage of a first-round pick makes him look like the single greatest player to put on a helmet and play the game of football.
It's deep into the fifth round and you're convinced Kiper is just making stuff up because no one could possibly know that much about an offensive tackle from Northern Idaho State .
Situation rules:
Roger Goodell makes a pick announcement: social! Raise glasses and take a nip.
Any mention of "war room": Change seats with someone else in the room
Your team is on the clock -- Mini "Power Hour" time! Drink a shot of beer for every 2 minutes that elapses.
Trade! Everyone drinks
