Sports Blog Nation Mock NFL Draft '07 -- Hosted By Field Gulls

We could not be prouder to announce the first-ever Sports Blog Nation Mock NFL Draft -- except if we were to announce that the draft would be hosted by Field Gulls. Which, holy cow, it is!

This very site, by virtue of the Seahawks not having a first-round pick this year, will be the Sports Blog Nation's central point for the Mock Draft. The owners of all the Nation's NFL blogs will be checking in here throughout the next 30 days or so to make their picks. I expect some commentary will also ensue.

This is big because the eyes of the NFL wing of the Nation will be upon us for about a month. So please, at least wear a clip-on. Also, I need to put some muzzles on order.

More details on this as we get all the administration set up. The action's tentatively slated to get moving in a couple days.

Which reminds me --
-- anybody wanna Paintshop a logo for this event?

Something relatively simple, but good quality. I was thinking we could use the FG logo, like they do with the baseball All-Star game logos.

I would do this myself but I have not a single byte of professional graphics software...

Oooh! And...
A good, clean, relatively amusing tagline, like: "Sports Blog Mock NFL Draft: Road to Oakland!"

Scruffy is pretty good.
Are we allowed in this icon to mock anyone in particular such as Rex Grossman or Coach Owens?  Or is to be pleasing to all?

Second, does this mean we are not allowed to use the phrase "thats what she said"?

i got answers
(a) Pleasing to all.

(b) Absolutely not. "That's what she said" is the cornerstone of contemporary American humor. But don't stretch it too much.

Cool!
I'll make sure I have a zipper handy for my mouth, so I don't offend some little old ladies.

(sorry, Shrug's mom!)

That's a right kerfuffle!

But how can this miracle product cure my insomnia
and resod my lawn for just FREE.99?

(Seriously, sleep is a rumor at this point)

I'll be excited to see how this works out, and once I can figure out how to feel tired I'll be back to step up the draft content.

If I have some energy tonight
I will whip up a logo

Do you want a Seahawk in it? Or just generic

You better tie a 2x4 across your ass before you go poking around with Jenna Jameson. Otherwise, you'll fall in and will never be heard from again.

Thanks!
We probably should neutralize it to a certain extent -- no Seahawks logo, but Seahawks colors, in my opinion, are perfectly acceptable.

An incorporation of the Field Gulls logo in some clever way would be nice too, but that's your call.

Thanks!

Dang.
I was hoping for a picture of Rex Grossman getting taken advantage of by a Green Bay Packer.
