2019 Divisional Draft Chat Recap
The following is an edited transcript from this year’s divisional draft, which was held on August 25, 2019.
The Executive Director: Welcome to the 2019 FMFL draft
The Executive Director: We’ll give The People’s Champ one more minute before we get started – if he doesn’t show, I’ll autopick for him based on regular season finish last year, picking from the worst available franchises
The Executive Director: Let’s get started – snake draft format with the order based on last year’s regular season finish – Gibbler, Babe, Thine and TPC. Then the next round will be the reverse (TPC, Thine, Babe, Gibbler). Gibbler is up with her first pick.
Kimmy Gibbler: Blossom Russo is my first pick
The Executive Director: Ok great – Blossom is taken. Babe up to you
Babe: Face
The Executive Director: Thine over to you
Thine: Because he is historically terrible
Thine: The Big Hurt
The Executive Director: Ok the People’s Champ will take the two expansion franchises – Luther Lavay and Karl Hungus
The Executive Director: Back to Thine
Thine: Boss Hardigan, recalling two years ago.
The Executive Director: Back to babe

The Executive Director: Excellent, over to Babe
Babe: Judge Smails

The People’s Champ: Sounds good
Kimmy Gibbler: OJ
Kimmy Gibbler: T-Ferg
The Executive Director: Over to Babe

The Executive Director: Thine you’re up

The Executive Director: The People’s Champ is up for two picks in a row. Here’s who is left – Gordon Bombay, Kiko Garcia, Chris B Corey, Patrick Bateman, Bud Fox, Karl Farbman, Dr Oge, Yaz, Kenny Powers
The People’s Champ: I’ll take Yaz and Patrick Bateman

Thine: I imagine the bath aswellas bedtime are being seen to
The Peoples Champ: Hahaha
The Executive Director: Money never sleeps. Bud Fox goes to Kimmy. Over to Babe
Babe: Gordon Bombay
The People’s Champ: Wow bold pick
The Executive Director: Thine up to you – Kiko or Chris

The People’s Champ: Good luck all!
