Just the Facts |
Mr. Irrelevant officially becomes so in April every year when the National Football League goes round and round with its annual two-day guessing and groaning orgy known as the Draft, finally hitting bottom and reaching the sad end on the second day with the glorious final pick. That's him, Mr. Irrelevant, the grandest loser/winner of them all. That's what we cheer, admire and celebrate. "Bottoms Up" is our favorite toast. As founder Salata has often pointed out, the Super Bowl is actually played not necessarily for the championship but to determine who gets the last pick in the draft and wins Mr. Irrelevant. Once the loser/winner is identified, he is brought to Newport Beach in June for a full week of free frivolity (the best kind!) amongst the foremost splendors of the West. The Week, of course, never ends and includes the Welcome Party, Disney Day, the Lowsman Trophy Banquet (that's the opposite of the Heisman) and various other side trips.
