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.*

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

13 Times April Ludgate Perfectly Explained College

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

1. When you have to provide an "interesting fact" for your first day ice-breaker.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.

3. When you edit your friend's paper and they get an A.

4. When it's 2 AM and you remember you have a test tomorrow.

5. When you finish taking the test and you're pretty sure you failed...

6. ...but then you get the test back and somehow passed.

7. When you've been up for 12 hours straight writing a paper.

8. And then you manage to stay awake in class the next day.

9. When you have to butter up your professor for an extra credit opportunity.

10. When you're assigned a group project.

11. And your group-mates are trying to chat about life instead of the assignment.

12. When it's your last class of the day and you're about to go home.

13. But then you remember rent is due tonight and the anger comes back.
