Draft Party Roll Call

Alright StR members. Tomorrow's the big day where Geoff Petrie will choose Greg Monroe over DeMarcus Cousins, much to our chagrin. Luckily, they'll be throwing us a party to celebrate, or lambaste, the front office's decision. Doors open at 3:30. Shindig's at 4:00. Picks start happening around 4:30, with ours being made by 4:55. Also, attendees will receive a free ticket to a select Kings home game, if you're into that sort of thing.

All snarkiness aside, I'm interested to see what StR members will be going. I'm considering going, but I'd be more convinced if I knew some of my fellow StR brethren will also be in attendance. I think it'd be cool to have a mini StR night tomorrow night, especially since I won't be able to attend any for a couple years.

I have to work late

I might not even be on the thread in time for our first pick (grrr!).

If I make it out of the office before 6 it will be a bonus

I have asked you guys before to hold games and threads before but it hasn’t happened yet. I can’t ask again for the draft, or maybe…

Thank goodness for DVRs. I have to decide if I want to listen to the radio on the way home or not and if it should be KHTK, ESPN or KNBR

Want to go

but Thursday is VB night

There are some guys smarter than me, some guys better looking, I take comfort in the fact that there is no guy that is both.

These are the kinds of things that make me envious as heck about all you who live in Sac

Well that and shoveling snow in May.

Probably won't be able to make it

I was still debating until I got sick last night. Feeling pretty crappy so I think I’m just gonna stay at home and join the thread.

The free tickets sound intriguing but I have homework

I am glad that the Kings brass are focusing more on the fan experience.

Sorry but I'm too cool for all of you.

Actually I’ll be busy picking my wife up from work.

Please note the 11 next to my name. All others are frauds.

There is nothing cooler than picking your wife up from work.

I'm out too.

I’m getting off work a few minutes before 4:30, and then finding a TV nearby and bringing my laptop just in case I can get a wireless connection to join the thread. And then going home to drink, hopefully in celebration, possibly in a self-destructive rage.

I'll be there.

Working for Sacramento Press and KCRA at the same time during the event though.

Ill be there. Meet me at my favorite haunt - the Vanilla & Snickers vendor.

So a whole two people?

Wow, what a fun bunch. I was gonna give my free ticket to whoever buys me a beer… or gets their wife/girlfriend to flash me. Hehe

I'm thinking about it

and will probably run down there. I’m battling some kidney stones right now and the discomfort – it comes goes.
(ouch when it happening)
I’d have to take off by about 6pm though for rehearsal. I decided to put my time where my sig line is and I’m playing Cassio in Othello in Shakespeare in the Park this summer.
