I remember watching this draft live, and shouting at the TV for the Angels to pick him. I remember a few posters here pulling for the Angels to get him a few days prior.

and ever since, pretty much every possible 1st round pick shows up.

you should wear a Yankees hat and boo when they announce their pick.

MLB Network also covered the Trout draft story pretty well in their doc from a couple of years ago called "Mike Trout: Millville to MVP." Great doc. I still have it on my DVR. I watch it a couple of times a year.

one of my favorite moments at the NFL draft each year is watching Jets fans react to their draft picks. It's hilarious.
