Looking forward to the Draft!

I think 9 have committed to the house in one form or another.
Vic not in the house (& not offering to pull some strings for all of us to stay free. just kidding)(it would be cool though)
Greg is a maybe; and we haven't heard anything from Boss Bass........ ......

Is the Champ alive??
