The Sting: Insects' Breakdown Their Picks
 
"Hello, Krystal Secum here and I am with the Bay Area Bloodsucking Insects Owner/GM/Coach, Frank Alonzo. With thier draft two-thirds of the way done, Frank has taken time out of the war room to share his thoughts on his draft."

*The camera pans to the left and Frank Alonzo is seen sitting comfortably in a director's chair. He wears a black long sleeve shirt, with an orange neck tie. A grin flashes across his young, handsome face as Krystal sits down and begins the interview.*

"Thanks for taking the time to conduct this interview."

"No problem."

"With your first pick you, you guys drafted Clinton Portis of the Denver Broncos. Please share your thoughts."

"Well when we traded up with the Wondermutts, this was the guy we had our sights set on all along. However suprisingly Donte Stallworth was still looking for a team and he made us think hard about our decision. Yet we decided that Clinton is too great a talent and in a great situation. With the Broncos producing 3 1,000 yards rushers we had no doubt once given the chance Clinton would produce."

"Yes but he is stuck in the depth chart behind Terrell Davis, Olandis Gary, and Mike Anderson."

"We don't see that as a problem. When talent presents itself, you take it. Also good RBs are hard to find and we feel Clinton is a great RB. When you think of it he's not too far down the depth charts. Mike Anderson has moved to FB. Gary has been rumored to be traded ever since last year and TD is coming off injuries. Plus he's almost as handsome as me."

*Krystal gives off one of those fake laughs that reporters or any on air personality possess. She has it down so well that she even added the lean forward and slapping of the knee. After taking a few moments ot compose herself she continues.*

"Oh boy. I don't think anyone can be as handsome as you Mr. Alonzo"

"Please Krystal, just call me Frank."

"Okay Frank. Now onto your 2nd ROund pick of Lamar Gordon. After taking an RB in the first, why take another one?"

"Why take another one? Why not? Like I said before when talent presents itself and is in a great position you nab them. Lamar clearly has both. He's talented AND he's in a GREAT situation. St. Louis. The Greatest Show on Earth."

"But he's behind the Immortal Marshall Faulk."

"That's the point! Marshall is getting old, however great he maybe, the guy is getting old. He'll have to slow down sooner or later, hopefully sooner since he's setting the FF world on fire."

"Don't you find it ironic that you swapped picks with the Wondermutts, who have Faulk, and take Lamar Gordon."

"Ironic? Nope, but it is funny as hell. Now I'm praying for Faulk to get injured. Now that would be great. Would further solidfy my status as resident genius among the GMs."

"Well what are you looking forward to in the third round?"

"With the last pick in the rookie draft we're looking for talent. Screw need. That's what Free Agency is for. The draft is all about collecting talent."

"Would you mind giving us some insight as too who you are looking at."

"Well not to give anything away but we're looking at QBs, RB, WRs, TEs, and placekickers!"

"That's a wrap, Frank. Thanks for the interview."

*Krystal leans forward, extending her hand making sure the camera gets the clevage to boost the ratings. Frank Alonzo shakes her hand.*

"Thanks, Krystal. Anytime"

Great post Frank... anybody besides me think the reigning champ is a bit full of himself LOL!

I also think there are a couple other GM's in this league who'll give you a run for your money as "resident genius" :D !

After reading Frank's post last night, I was wondering if we could consider voting for an owner of the year or some other awards. It would not have to be the team that won it, but maybe the owner that got the most out of what they had.

Some awards could be funny or serious. Just a thought about what could be done to liven up the February portion of the off-season.

Sounds like a great idea! Especially after my OPIHI upset the entire Eastern Division, and come out of nowhere to take the championship... I think it would be nice to have some consolation prize for the Freedom, Predators and Undead!:D

You have to admire that spirit! In the immortal words of Tim Allen, "NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER!" We should give out an award for most delusional :D. BTW Ophi, I'm pulling for the upset, go superunderdogs!
