Major NFL Draft Announcement

Nfl-draft-goodell_medium

Big news here at MHR and SBNation as a whole. 2009 has the makings of the most historic draft in Broncos history and MHR will be there!  The NFL has officially credentialed myself and BleedingGreenNation to cover the NFL Draft April 25-26 at Radio City Music Hall in New York.

We will be live in person covering the draft delivering real-time updates and hopefully getting lots of chances to talk with players, league insiders, & analysts. This is big for MHR and the company as a whole and will take our draft coverage to another level.

Whether it is via live posts here, Tweets via Twitter (Follow Me HERE) or video uploads later in the day, MHR and BGN will have your 2009 NFL Draft covered from #1 to Mr. Irrelevant.

If you guys have any suggestions or things you'd like to see or hear from the event, let me know.

All I want is 53 Rod Smiths. Is that asking too much????

Awesome!

You’ll have a long way to go to convince me that this year’s draft will be more historic for the Broncos than 1983 (and that for a guy Denver didn’t even draft!), but that in no way diminishes my excitement and anticipation for your coverage.

This is enormous news, and really speaks to the credibility of this site

CONGRATS to you and MHR! This is huge!

Good job, I look forward to the coverage

See if you can find out what the guys answering the phones for the teams get paid and how they get that gig to run the picks up to the commish, I always wanted that gig.

by hallandnash on Apr 20, 2009 7:57 AM MDT reply actions   0 recs

Wow....

All because of the love of bronco fans for their own personal Guru. Well deserved. That kind of access will make the site even better. Grab as much stuff for our charity auction as you can.

this is cool, have fun. I wish they would move the Draft to LA though so I could go lol

Excellent news

TSG, you asked “If you guys have any suggestions or things you’d like to see or hear from the event, let me know.” Perhaps specific impact an AFC compeditor pick has on the Broncos. Hopefully it will be more of “why it is bad for AFC team / good for Broncos”

Victor Frankl:

What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.

Most excellent!

As much as I loathe the MSM, they have had one biggie over the blogosphere… ACCESS!!!

Here’s to breaking that open!!!

This is what we wanted...
Hey, look what we got!

Are you going to have different

seating than you did last year? If I recall correctly, didn’t you, BigBlueShoe, or the Jags guy have the camera float on by you?

TSG, I mean this in the nicest way possible

First off, I kindly demand that upon your return from the draft, that you scan and email me an image from the press pass, I have some really good ideas for a new wallpaper that would involve some draft swag…that would fit pretty nicely. Also, if you happen to come upon a card, or a piece of paper with an NFL logo that’s pretty decent sized, please scan and email that to me as well, I can’t find a good sized NFL logo anywhere on the net!

Get it done soldier!

Draft access to someone outside the MSM?

Someone wake up Will Leitch and PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE! He would be OUTRAGED!

Nah really . . . congrats dude. Keep it real!

Great News. I will be sitting in front of my TV with my laptop on my lap and the clicker in one hand and an adult beverage in another. I can’t wait! Congrats and thanks in advance for the extra effort and coverage!

Guru...I just want to be one of the many to congradulate you!! Your hard work to maintain a site....

that insists its members stay away from anger (and stick with insights, history, facts and fun) has truly made this the premium source of Denver Bronco news. I would also like to give truly huge ‘High Fives’ to HT, styg, Zappa, and Mdierk for helping keep the ship on course for the early part of the sail. High fives are also due to Bear, Ted, nyc, and nick for helping the course to stay true.

You asked for suggestions and I only have one:

Johnny…you need to slip into La La Land once in a while…its nice in here!!
