Because I set up a uniquely glitchy system for picking, I ended doing some auto picking for Delaware Dem based on the chalk last year when we made our picks. Surprisingly Jeb! remained on the board late into the drafting. Less surprisingly, so did Donald Trump. Nobody paid much attention to Trump back then as the result of his threats to run in three prior Presidential races.
My hand hovered over my keyboard and I literally said, “I can’t do that to him” when I passed on Trump and gave Del Dem Bush instead. Sorry about that DD, but who knew?
Flash forward 12 months and Trump is about to wrap up this thing up and if picked, would be sitting on 365 points. Crazy old world. I’ll update the standings sometime tomorrow. In the meantime, if you want to sit on the edge of your seat, consider this: If Rubes crashes and burns in Florida (as expected) and quits prior to (around) March 29th – then I win. If he drags his ass into April, then Newton wins.
I’ll update the standings sometime tomorrow.
