Comments on: Draft Analysts Have No Idea What They’re Doing http://www.sportsbybrooks.com/draft-analysts-have-no-idea-what-theyre-doing-23529 Celebrity sports gossip since 2001 Fri, 25 May 2012 14:55:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 By: Larry Brown http://www.sportsbybrooks.com/draft-analysts-have-no-idea-what-theyre-doing-23529#comment-84718 Larry Brown Mon, 27 Apr 2009 07:19:54 +0000 http://www.sportsbybrooks.com/draft-analysts-have-no-idea-what-theyre-doing-23529#comment-84718 Seems to me that your desire to rip ESPN and some of the experts in order to earn "cool points" in the blogosphere is clouding your judgment.  All three did excellent jobs by my account, you know, one that actual uses a little common sense such as did they get the right position, did trades screw them up but essentially they were right?  What kind of lazy analysis is this?  The only person that has no idea what they're doing is you.  If you had a clue, you wouldn't write such an incomplete post.  What you said in essence is that Kobe Bryant can't shoot because he only makes 45% of his shots or that Pujols can't bat because he only hits .350.  For McShay to get 8 right and 3 essentially right (both Denver players just in the wrong order and Freeman to TB) he went 11/32 which is 34%.  Find me another expert that did better.

Professional time killers. Nothing more. I have no idea what the appeal of watching the draft is. Get a life. It's all about filling time. Professional time killers. Nothing more.

I have no idea what the appeal of watching the draft is. Get a life.
