[1560 AM] Seinfeldian Draft

I'd post a meaningful response, but I have no idea what you're talking about, but know the feeling of throwing up an 0-fer thread, so I'll just say I hope you have a nice day.

Last year Sean and John were ripping on Peter King from SI for making a mock draft because he doesn't watch college football and only knows the players based on the combine and pro days. Somewhere they went down a path about how people can make a mock draft about anything and it would be better than Peter King's draft. So that's how it started.

Enjoy!!

 

Half the time I turn into 1560 its either a weak frat joke, Star Wars talk, or Seinfeld talk. All things I appreciate, but when I listen to sports I want to listen to sports. I know you guys slurp the game, they are friends of CF, yada yada, I just can't buy what they are selling. You'd think I would too... Oh well.

 

Ditto.

 

I'm just not a fan of college football, so that precludes me from listening to anything 1560 unless Clutch is on or Zierlein is doing an impression.

 

Brilliant use of yada yada by the way, don't know if it was on purpose, but I applaud none the less.

 

I listened to it for about 10 minutes yesterday and that in itself was way too long. It made for a quick, funny bit, but hours of this? No thanks. It was as if they were doing a show for just for the people that work there and a few of their regular hardcore callers.

 

Lance Zierlein - Joel Przybilla’s sister’s virginity...FTW

 

That was awesome. I couldnt stop laughing.

Asian Girls and David Anderson's Mom were also hilarious.

 

When they start talking about the Seinfeld draft I immediately change the dial now. Someone needs to tell these guys that just because something "is about nothing" doesn't mean it is funny/clever in a Seinfeld way. I gave it a chance, but 30 minutes of babbling about non-sports related crap and giggling hysterically at your own jokes and inside references just makes for bad radio. They need to drop this schtick before I drop them as a listener.

 

Have you seen Dave Chappelle's Racial Draft?

There's even a Yao Ming reference...
