27 Thoughts We All Have While Watching The Draft

The Phinsider

All football fans know that watching the NFL Draft is equivalent to your favorite show finally coming out on Netflix. You've waited so long for the day to come, and it's finally here. Your game plan has been set up for months: you know exactly where you'll be tuning in, what you'll be munching on when the first pick is called and you may have even made bets with your friend on which superstar goes to what team.

This is the moment you've been waiting three long months for.

More than what it is, however, is what it means:

Football season is only a mere four months away.

Below, I've documented the 27 most memorable thoughts that ran through my mind while watching the coveted event.

1. OK. Here we go. I'm excited.

2. I'm so glad I have my snacks with me.

3. This is so cool. Their lives are about to change forever.

4. First pick: The moment we've been waiting for!

5. OK...Not sure who that was.

6. That was underwhelming.

7. Onto the next.

8. OK, maybe not.

9. Wow, they talk a lot.

10. Another commercial?

11. No, I do not want to save 15 percent or more by switching to Geico, but thanks for asking.

12. Definitely don't want to talk to my doctor about Cialis either.

13. YES. It's starting again.

14. I LOVE FOOTBALL.

15. More talking? Are you serious?

16. Why does everyone hate Roger Goodell?

*Googles "why does everyone hate Roger Goodell?"*
Oh. That's why.

17. I guess I don't like him either.

18. Wow, that's a nice ass suit.

19. Who knew a bunch of big football players could be so good looking?

20. I wonder if I could find a way to sneak into their locker room.

21. Or work for a team.

22. Specifically the Patriots.

Helloooo, Tom Brady.

23. Or maybe I could just marry one of them?

Hello, again, Tom Brady.

24. Why yes, I am Giselle. Couldn't you tell?

24. Maybe I should try and work out so I at least sort-of look like Giselle.

25. ...Nah.

26. OK, focus.

27. Damn, Taylor Decker. Where have you been all my life?

26. This is not focusing.

27. Maybe I should just watch Netflix and follow the highlights on my ESPN app.

*Decision made.*

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
