    I'm sick as a dog, which totally sucks but at least I can not be distracted from draft day.

    Can't believe the Blazers actually have a shot to get Scoot today.

    It was self inflicted too. I went out of my way to go there, knowing full well I'd be slightly distracted today.

    So who is going to follow Woj on Twitter during the draft? He always breaks news before it’s announced on TV. Or are you turning off Twitter and enjoying everything break on TV?

    I think it's also an age thing. I never would've considered taking today off. In fact, I've never taken a day off for a sporting event in my working career. The only sporting events I would take off would be if the Blazers were in the finals and it was during the work day (but they really don't play games during the day in the finals).

    I have a co-worker, who is 20 years younger than me (god I hate being able to say that), who takes days off to watch Manchester United play games if they're important.

    I like it a lot. It does a nice job of going between different modalities and having various ways to practice. I recommend it to my students as a supplementary way of practicing. I’ve been using it for Romanian and Italian.
