I gotta say, I'm intrigued. I finally understand what those people who slow down as they drive by an accident feel.

Schadenfreude? That applies to getting joy from others suffering, if you are getting pleasure from your own suffering, then it is masochism. Hopefully there are more deals tonight, because the draft wasn't very impressive at first glance.

There's no emotional reaction, except perhaps disgust. It's more the "I can't stop looking at this disaster."

I'd like to think the delay is Kahn being busy negotiating some sort of trade to fix tonight, but technical difficulties seem like a more likely scenario.

I guess dumbstruck or godsmacked would be more appropriate then. I was really looking forward to tonight and I currently feel hallow and worn down. I'm hoping there is something about this draft that I am missing, but it doesn't really seem like we've improved anywhere near what I had hoped for.

Kahn's phone rang before it started, it was Kevin McHale laughing...
