A funny draft night happening. Our family was in a hotel suite in Columbus; going "hi tech" by connecting our laptop to the flatscreen; all going well until pick #42; oops; the site freezes. So we frantically attempt to re-connect to MLB.com - can't get back in; so Plan B - my oldest son called his wife in Chicago; her computer/connection was working fine; so she held the phone to the computer as each selection was made as we huddled in our room around the speakerphone. We missed a few selections; but we heard the one we needed to hear! 
Sorry for length here; but wanted to share . . . and again; we really do appreciate the kind words!

There have to be a lot of nights freezing at Little League games, carting him around for travel baseball, etc that all were rushing through your head last night...excellent
