Nice. Was hoping that would hang around a little longer. 

I was between three and pulled the trigger on this one. See how my other two choices lasts.

😀😀😀

 I was driving my daughter to school when she was in second grade. At a stop sign or light she looks over. Two dogs are going at it bumping ugly.  Lil Bunny: Daddy, is that doggy in the front OK???   Me: Yes Darlin. The one in the back is pushing the other one to the hospital. Lil Bunny: Why?   Me: It’s good to be the king.

Thought I could wait on this one. Great movie but very long and slow. But Jennifer Connelly’s Butt.

Everything is edited and up to date through 6.7

I also finally figured out how I want to set up the rosters so it's easy to read and isn't ugly.

You were right about 1985 in the music draft, but I don't see it with 1981 in this one. IMO, There are enough great movies to go around every year and filling the slots won't be too hard.

There is plenty out there just kinda a down year more then some others. Sorry was on the phone and couldn't expand on my thoughts. There is plenty choices for every year in this draft and won't hear me complain about a year. I do think there is some better years then some others though.

7.04 Heathers. Crime 1989

Crime needs one slot, not two, and you already have Untouchables there. I slapped Heathers into High School instead, unless you want it somewhere else?

Can we trade in this draft ? I will give whoever has the next pick, my next pick and a extra wildcard for their pick! Joking of course.
