I think it'll be Minnesota, Dallas then Boston. Unless Steel pulls something and picks Boston over Dalls, I'm not sure where Darknes will pick if that occurs.

So basically he pulls a me?

I could definitely see it happening. Stir up some drama early, keep everyone on their toes.

Someone has to since I don’t think I can.

Wow, Orlando huh? Can't say I'm surprised, they're one of my favorite designs. I definitely had them in the mix for my pick, but I definitely thought you'd steal Minnesota.
For anyone wondering, my choice came down between San Diego and Chicago, Kentucky and New York weren't even really on my radar when I decided. I like both of the designs, but Kentucky's uniforms had some things I'd want to tweak if i was going to pick them, and much like Chicago, New York's alt scared me off from picking them. San Diego was the most well rounded uniform I thought, and going back through all the submissions to see the creators original ideas, I found that SD had some white pants to break up monochrome, which sealed the deal for me.
I'm excited for the 3rd pick, I think Chicago's off the board.

My short list came down to Orlando, San Diego, Minnesota, and Kentucky. The idea of taking Minne was certainly there, but ever since I designed the Galactics, I knew I wanted to have that team so had to take em.

Anyone else die of laughter reading Direbear's press release?

No?... OK....

It was either that or me showing up with a Mitch Trubisky body pillow. I went with the former since it's less awkward.

Anyway, probably everyone predicted that I was getting Chicago, but I was seriously considering Arizona and San Antonio. I debated whether to go for Chicago or Arizona, and I ended up choosing Chicago because I liked their identity slightly more the Arizona (even though I designed the unis for the Scorpions).

Now everyone knows who I want the most..but can anyone guess who my 2nd and 3rd pick on my shortlist are?

Dire Bear: Yeah, you made the right call with the bad fantasy football history segment! That was pretty funny! Plus, if you're gonna have a Bears' QB body pillow, you should definitely go with Nick Foles anyway, lmao! The guy did win my Eagles a Super Bowl not too long ago and you never know, he could do it again!

As we all wait for Steelman’s pick, we wonder, is he going to go for the steal, or play for his favorites.

I mean, he's called Steelman for a reason...
