Eric, c'mon, even if you think it's stupid, a non-spoiler

thread is something a lot of us want. So could we please set one up?

why? The pick comes in 30 seconds early. Don't look at BBI for 30 seconds before the pick is made.

Clearly a bunch of us have asked for it, so we see some value in being involved in the Board's discussion but also seeing it announced live.
Fuck it, I rather skip BBI until after the draft instead of risking

How because someone

doesn't have the wherewithal to not look at BBI for 10 minutes or less that it takes for the Giants to pick, should the site do anything?

Man up and don't look at the site for 10 minutes.

why are you refreshing/looking at the thread when the team is on the clock if you don't want to know the pick?

That just makes zero sense. Again, we're talking about a 30 second lag here.

see you after the draft.

if you guys want to start your own thread, go ahead. Just makes zero sense to me.

I want to hear from all my BBI "brothers" when the Giants are on the clock to find out who they would pick AND also hear the commissioner announce the pick.

When a twitter geek blurts out the pick it ruins it for some of us.
we've had months to speculate

you really want to add another minute to that?

Yup, and almost everyone will be on the main thread where the excitement will be.

How fucking hard is it to not read BBI when Giants on clock?

I don't have a horse in this race (doesn't bother me), but how hard is it to wait the 20 seconds and NOT post the tweet on who was picked?
Guys

Ive been wanting this for years. Its easier just to skip BBi for a few minutes.

The problem is that sometimes we know the pick when 2 teams are before us.... haha
