This may have to be moved.

Just saw on ESPN. Philly will host the 2017 draft. What is the NFL thinking????

Terrible location. Frisco star is better. AT&T stadium is better. Jerrys house is better

 

[CATCH17]

I can't think of a safer place to have it.

They may need to place a net in front of the stage with all the things that will be thrown.

They dont have any pics

What fun is that?

Every pick booed loudly. Love it. (it actually is a beautiful city with horrible sports fans)

 

[DBOY3141]

and Philly doesn't even have a 1st round pick...

Thats like going to a strip club only to find outnits a dude ranch

We've all been there!

Yeah, they deserve it, right?

Why??

I just picture a bunch of eagles fans acting a fool and embarrassing themselves and the league. What would possess them to think this is a good idea.

Maybe I'm wrong but history's on my side.

I wonder if there is an over/under on how many draft picks it will take before they start throwing things.

Only good thing is that Goodell will get roasted worse than usual.

Will Blandino be there? Because if Goodell and Blandino get pelted with batteries I might have to tune in.

Good, maybe their fans wont attend.

What is this "strip club" you speak of?

History is on your side? When has Philly hosted the draft before?

Because I doubt there really is going to be a problem at the draft. It's not like a Sunday game where Eagles hooligans will be all liquored up in the parking lot having drank for 5 hours straight. Further, you probably won't get a ton of Eagles fans anyway as they don't even have a first round pick.

Much ado about nothing. Philly is actually an up and coming city with a great restaurant scene, etc.

Did you stop reading his post when you hit the words 'strip club?'

If so, I think you might want to read the rest of the sentence before you get directions to the place.

Gotta admit Philly has great food. Been there a few times. Nice city, just crappy teams

Hope everyone attending has had all their shots.
