In case you missed it in his dedicated stickied thread, Lonewolf Ed passed away this morning. I think everyone can agree that Ed courageously battled cancer and was an inspiration to all of us on how to handle an extremely difficulty situation.
I presume everyone will be glued to their tv's and this board tomorrow night during the draft.
I propose that when THE COMMISH SAYS CHIEFS ARE ON THE CLOCK tomorrow night, before all heck breaks out with KC's pick, we have a moment of silence and then all raise a glass in honor of Ed. A little something along the lines of "To Lonewolf Ed, always be kind and look for the positive in life. **** Cancer." [Reply]

I'm guessing he meant CST because 9:30 our time would not be near the 27th pick.
I'm for both toasts. I think it's a great idea. [Reply]

I like this plan. Maybe they'll trade up. If they trade out of the round we have to pound the whole beer. [Reply]
His family used to have a place up river from where I live now (the Boulder River). He always wanted to come back and visit and I looked forward to meeting him at The Grand to toss a few back. Sadly, it never happened. [Reply]
