the white trash quota will be high enough, they dont need you
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

in other words, you'll already be there.

They want an awful lot of personal info.  Pass on that, thanks.

That's just to get you tickets to be in the theater for the draft, but the whole "event" is going to take place between the Art Museum and Franklin Institute and doesn't require a ticket.  I gotta imagine that the draft will be broadcast to areas outside the theater itself.  I'm going on Thu with some friends.  Don't really care if I get in the theater or not, I just want to be there and check shtein out.

The Eagles aren't good enough to bring it to Philly, so somebody had to.
