Fantasy practice makes perfect

So you've done it all you say? You've read every fantasy piece of information under the sun, ordered that new cell phone package which sends you up to the minute alerts and flagged the NFL Network under favorites on TiVo incase, God forbid, Adrian Peterson gets a paper cut while opening his mail. 

Maybe you've even begun to put together a list you like to call, 'Sleeper picks 2008: the ones that'll make me a legend.' But have you actually practiced drafting yet?

That's right have you spent countless hours facing simulated mock draft scenarios to prepare yourself for any situation that could slap you in the face?

Thanks to the lovely people at ESPN you now have that ability to do so. 

What are you waiting for? Go to the fantasy football home page and precede to the Mock Draft Lobby (or click that link). Enter a room, and then put your so-called fantasy genius to the test. Check out how you would react if you were to land that highly coveted #2 spot or God forbid you fall into the #9 seed.

You will need an ESPN account to participate -- if you don't have one don't sweat -- it's as easy as 1,2,3. Click the 'Register' link on top of the page and then follow the directions. 

Don't be the one left behind on draft day.

You think this is a joke, "Mr. I knew Marques Colston before he was big"? You don't think that even you could use a little practice to tune up to your game?

Go ahead and challenge yourself -- seriously, do you want someone like that (look up)-- beating you on draft day?

That's what I thought.
