I've visited Helsinki twice, mostly for business, got a tour of some of the islands and surroundings. It's lovely in Finland. The company I used to work for is based there.

Not on an island, but on a secluded lake. Island cottages are a pain to transfer stuff there and from, and we use our cottages around the year, so it's important to be able to just drive straight to the driveway.

Well I’m gonna give y’all my opinion on Turner, IMO he is a reach and a good one perhaps, but a day 2 pick not a 1

Nice to finally get some sunlight and actually feel the warmth of the sun when it's out...

There a good chance he was going day one even if we didn't take him. He absolutely wouldn't have been there at pick 60. Picks #30, #31, and #32 were all edge rushers, as well.

And you have no way in hell of knowing that. But you are not mature enough to admit that.

For me picking at #28 seems more like a high 2nd round draft selection.

Well, it was briefly raining sleet today, so a normal kind of Finnish weather for the 1st of May celebrations.

That's pretty much what it is, but with a fifth year option.
