...Say that the draft result would be announced in the first ten minutes?

When UPN 38/Boston was hyping the draft lottery, they then said "Don't miss the first ten minutes" So I was wondering if anything similar was hyped elsewhere.

Edited since people have now mentioned who the draft pick is for this week. Not directly, but you'd have to be stupid not to figger it out.

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

--John Rogers

I don't know... I missed the entire 1.5 hours.

Have they shown the draft pick yet? Or did I miss it?

I didn't see him announced on SD! yet though. I may have missed him, but I don't think I did. That would take more than the 30 seocnds I was off pissing, I think.

Yeah, it said that before the show.

It was all like "You do NOT want to miss the first ten minutes!!!"

Maybe they meant the last ten minutes.

So you had three boring people mocking one boring person.

I mean, come on. How creative do you have to be to mock Heidenreich's poems? Michael Cole did it.

Back on subject here.

My UPN station didn't do this, even though they are seemly proud of their UPN affiliation.

Though I cannot say a lot of good things about our UPN station (which just got started this past December and replaced UPN19/Pittsburgh on our cable systems). they sometimes run too many commercials and thus cut off about the first10-30 seconds out of a program on UPN. And they run that damn Focus On The Family (or should we call it "Fuckup Of The Family") thing every newscast with Dr. Strange Dobsion. But they finally got a UPN affiliate in WV, so that isn't all bad...I hope.

It's called trying to drive ratings. Most TV shows get their ratings in 10 or 15 minute intervals. If you get people to tune in for the first 10-15 minutes of a show, then the entire half-hour or hour gets that rating. Bigger rating = higher cost to advertisers who want to put their spot on during that show.
