To Numb The Mind....

We are all bored doing nothing.

So why aren't we wasting our time in a more idiotic manner?

This is a Yankee blog.

The 2020 draft is close to happening.

We must be conducting mock drafts.  Mock drafts are as much fun as picking up fallen leaves from the same tree,  one by one, and pasting them in a book.

You know, where we pretend to have insight as to which teenagers will become all stars....and then we pretend that they will become Yankees....by selecting them.

We can put on fedora's and imagine that we are scouts.

 You can even chew on some tobacco.

And then...the highlight...is when the real draft happens.  We can compare our pretended selections with the Yankees' selections.

How exciting that day can be.

We selected Harvey Harrison in round one, from Enid , Oklahoma, and the Yankees picked  Jesse Congolemerate from San Juan,  Puerto Rico.

Not only that;  we can do many mock drafts.

Then we can argue who did it best.

Who is our award winning, "golden draft scout" of the pretend season?

We can them jump off a cliff or go swimming with sting rays.

Pass the bourbon, please.
