Cheesy huh?
The NFL draft we all watch is the cheesiest production I have seen in a long while. 4 days of horse trading humans dressed in bad suits and covered in bling. Once picked they glad hand the villain Roger Goodell while dawned in a pimped out cap worn incorrectly and a jersey with no name. A gala even where college students celebrate their first employment in a field they did not major in while in College. Cheesy huh? Anyone ever look at the filmography of Mark Hamil? other than Star Wars (Greatest movie ever) it is filled with movies like Corvette Summer... LOL! Movie critics that have yet to see the movie they are critiquing...

I stopped watching the draft several years ago, right after it became a major media production. Now I get an alert when we are picking and tune in for 3 minutes every hour. |

Ever watched Chopped on Food Network? I love the defensive "well that is the way I like it" responses to someone being told their flank steak is over cooked. Its all judging and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people like a thick dark almost gravy-like gumbo, some like a thinner lighter soup-like gumbo. If you get one of each on a judging panel, who knows what will win. BTW... Tin Cup, 3000 Miles to Graceland, both excellent movies, both somewhat cheesy but that doesn't mane cheesy a bad thing.
