They need to concentrate more on the draft than this

five-six brainiac named RajKO (get it?) Vujatovic, one of 200 actual chess masters in all of London.

WHO?! 200?? LOL!!! Theres like 30-40 probs in London...

The NFL Draft is next weekend. The NHL and NBA ones are still months away; the playoffs are just starting for them now.

If you include all the players eligible for CM who haven't claimed it, does the number get close to 200?

I know that alex 6 days to NFL draft which could be really intresting esp now there could be a trade for the number 1 pic.
As to the NBA playoffs where is the first round shock comming from for me the west could produce 2 shocks Oklahoma could beat the lakers esp if Durant and Westbrook catch fire.The other shock could be San an over Dallas mavs.

This is a great time of the season for USA sports fans i love the NHL also gogo Blackhawks is there a better uniform in sports than the Chicago Blackhawks top

Erm NHL i don't like. Monster NFL fan as I play alot of american football. Love the celtics and Red sox. Especially when Coco got in punch up. Wonderful stuff.

NFL draft is most interesting in my view due to the diversity of the game.
