South Florida Fans obsess over NFL Draft

South florida sports fans have tunnel vision for football. Before I start, let me preface this by saying that I am splitting season tickets for the Miami Dolphins. Therefore I do have a vested interest in our football team. However, our baseball team, the Marlins, in first place. Our pitchers have lowest era in the majors and most complete games. More importantly, The Heat is in the NBA Playoffs.

And what do 98% of the callers into Sports Talk want to know? Who will the Miami Dolphins pick in the draft, will they trade down, who will Saban go with. Well I want to ask Who? Sorry, Who? Who gives a %*#*@!!!!

Plus, no one will know the results of the draft until after the season starts. The first pick may be a flop, while pick number 80 may be the next super star. Point is, NO ONE REALLY KNOWS. Football season is not for another, what 4 months!!!! We are in the midst of our basketball team going all the way right now, our baseball team is showing signs of being there in the end, and these idiot callers only care about what MAY happen 4 months from now to a team that went 4 and whatever last season? Come on South Florida fans, lets get our priorities straight.
