New York Yankees hold fantasy football draft in ESPN Zone
Pro athletes play fantasy football, too.
Sunday evening, a ton of New York Yankees dropped by ESPN Zone in the Inner Harbor to conduct their fantasy football draft in a private room.
"The whole team was there -- Jeter, A-Rod, Teixeira, Joba, etc.," ESPN Zone publicist Kat Kirsch wrote in an e-mail.
I wonder who got Ray Lewis?

I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.

You seriously have to wonder when you have a gazillion dollars like these dudes do, why in the hell you would spend your time at ESPN Zone? Was there not a nicer place to do their draft? Are the Zone wings that great?

I know!
I would have at least chartered a hovercraft.
But what did they do? They got in the ZOOOONE. ESPN ZOOOONE.

FYI!! If you are drafting in an IDP (Individual Defensive Player) league, then Ray Lewis would be a viable option. Not a first rounder, but definitely later in the draft.
