BFO All-Time Bears Draft // Discussion

[Bears Whiskey Nut]

I got Steve McMichael.

[G08]

DL Jay Ratliff

I remember him, in his "dying days", causing Halas Hall to evacuate because he said he was the devil.

[wab]

I will take defensive end (yes, his prime was with the Eagles BUT he wore a Bears Jersey, damn it -- Clyde Simmons.

Easy there 2010 Jerry Angelo...don’t get too cute.

Is that what caused it? Wasn't there a day the police were called out or something?

Hey, per Urlachers Oblong Kack we get the player IN HIS PRIME regardless of how good or bad he was as a Bear!

[Mikefive]

Really happy to get another HOF guy. With this pick, I'll take all-decade team member and 3x all-pro...

Walt Kiesling, G

And some posters may be enthused that Kiesling was one of the heaviest players of his time. And I'm very pleased to have an offensive line that is made up entirely of Pro Football Hall of Famers! Take THAT!

Next pick upcoming...

[G08]

I got Steve McMichael.

[wab]

Dammit. Casares was my next pick. I should’ve known...

[wab]

Dammit. I was hoping to sneak Brendon Ayanbadejo in under the radar.

[UOK]

I was hoping to snare Hillenmyer but billy grabbed him in the nick of time. Ayanbadejo was next on the list, so apologies comrade.

All is fair in love and fantasy drafts. Hillenmeyer was also on my list, so I'm officially scrambling.

That’s fine. But I’m getting McMichael.

I feel like there's some major omissions in the spreadsheet.

Umbali will need to select 7 players to fill out his roster, which makes sense.

I feel like I'm missing a selection for Bears Whiskey Nut somewhere.

Mikefive is also one behind.

You don’t have McCown under BWN. That’s the only omission I see.

[UOK]

Fixed.

[The Marshall Plan]

First.

Thank you so much to UOK for hosting this draft. Awesome.

Then.

Some of these names brought back a shit ton of memories. Joe Cain, Parrish, Mike Brown, Ironhead Heyward and on and on and on. Bryan Cox was one too. I remember when we signed Bryan Cox as an FA from the Dolphins. I was jacked about that move. Ugh.

[wab]

Here's who needs what:

Otis Day - needs a kicker. Chris Boniol, Olindo Mare, Mirro Roder, Doug Brien are available
Umbali - Needs OT/OG/1 more offensive player, 2 safeties, a kicker, a punter, and one more defensive player
BWN - needs a safety and one more DL
Cblaz - needs OG, one offensive player, two defensive players

Everyone else is closed. We'll have the Pagan roster auction eventually.

[Bears Whiskey Nut]

I should have Mike Brown and Ha-Ha Clinton Dix.

Major tip of the hat to most everyone who participated. I'm stunned that this got done in 8 days. I predicted it would take at least 3 weeks. Great job most everyone who were either sending in proxy lists or constantly monitoring the thread and being prepared to pick. I wonder exactly how many played it like I did and were just ready to go (and didn't do enough work at work this week)?

And of course, major kudos to UOK. This draft was pretty much his life for 8 days. And wab too, who looked like he jumped in for some administrative work at the end. Thank you, gents!

[Bears Whiskey Nut]

Hey everyone. I’m in nowhere WI this weekend and will have limited access. So if we’re doing an auction for players, I probably can’t participate. Unless we were willing to wait until Sunday afternoon.

I think the auction will wait. I need a respite, lol.

[beardownbilly]

A big thanks to everyone who worked hard on this. It was a much bigger project than I know I imagined and I know some of you guys (no names) spent a lot of time making this run smoothly and quickly.

[cblaz11]

Sorry guys, got drunk on the golf course so I lost track of the draft.

OG- Chris Williams
LB- Vincent Smith

That is perfectly excusable reason for your absence.

Haha that is the best possible reason.

[Bears Whiskey Nut]

As everyone has said much more eloquently than I could. Thank you to UOK for putting up with us, and organizing this. Lots of fun. I learned a lot about players I’ve never heard of.

Let the trash talking commence.
