Anyone bought a draft magazine yet?

I like to have one while waching the draft so I can check off who's still on the board.

Want to get my monies worth.
Which ones are full of fluff and trash, and which are solid with lots of names?

I never heard of this before, but my pa told me about this company called "our lads", and that the N.F.L. draft is what they specialize in. My ma died in a horrible car wreck in South Carolina, and he would have never gotten this subscription to this publication, but my ma talked him into it as she wanted to track what moves they were gonna make on the team. He said that she was more well read and educated than he was when it came to the draft, and that didn't surprise me really. Their website is:

To illustrate that all Great things come from the center of the "Known Universe", Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania Dutch Country-I quote the website relating to the origin of the name "Ourlads":

"What is the origin of the name?
The word "OURLAD" is a combination of the words "Our" and "Lad." Its origin is Irish and is a colloquial reference to one's brother. It is indigenous to the eastern coal region of Pennsylvania, more specifically, Schuylkill County, north of the mountain. We began referring to the computer in use early on as Ourlad and the name has stuck. There have been a number of Ourlad computers over the years as the software and data have of necessity migrated from system to system. For the record, the first Ourlad was a Datapoint 2200, which we employed in the early 1980's."
