I’m Going to the Draft!

Friday, April 24th, 2009

Planning to spend Short Skirt Saturday* inside Radio City Music Hall for the 2009 NFL Draft. Thanks to @tarametblog and Pepsi for hooking me up with the V.I.P. pass!

I’ll be there around 2:30, at which point live-tweeting will commence. Follow me on twitter or check out steadyburn.tumblr.com (the weakest looking tumblog in the land at the moment) for all the real-time updates!

Should be a draft to remember, considering that it’s supposed to push 85 tomorrow in NYC, which means only the most irate of Giants and Jets fans are planning to show up and boo incessantly the hometown picks.

If you want to prep for the draft by hearing about Mark Sanchez’ NYC burger odyssey, follow him on twitter here. If you want to get familiar with some of the best pre-draft content going around the blogosphere, there’s always the NFL Draft of All-Time Video Game Greats and Top Five Hottest Girlfriends of 2009 NFL Draft Prospects.

Enjoy the picks!

*In College, a friend of mine coined the term Short Skirt Saturday to represent the first balmy Saturday in the Spring in New York. Self-explanatory, inspired, and completely on point.

To the victor go the spoils! Meet Matt Knell, the winner of the first ever Superbowl Giveaway (first ever Giveaway, period) on this here blog. He wins that gaggle of goodness I was pimpin’ on behalf of Pepsi about a week ago. For those of you who weren’t aware of the contest, here’s what Matt wins, and the rest of the star-crossed contestants can only continue to pine for…

I asked Matt, a crushed Giants fan in fact, to give us some insight into his Superbowl plans…


Super Bowl party plans probably consist of snacky goodness in the

apartment with the girlfriend, and perhaps a few others – we’ll dress

up the cat and our chin in Arizona Cardinals jerseys (NFC all the

way).



It took me a minute to decipher chin, actually it took me until Matt emailed me again granting me permission to post photos of his chinchilla (oh!) named Minnie. Here’s that strange animal in question now…

Congratulations to Matt, who also happens to be a blogger (you can check him out at TagSmith.org and SM4SC.com)

For the rest of you, just gonna have to wait until the next epic consumer brand marketing scheme here on Steady Burn – cause I’m sure as hell not giving away any of my own sweet contraband.
