I don't think anyone is upset at Mike and it's obviously not his fault.

#PregameChatroomFAIL

Totally not Hook's fault.  All the credit in the world to a sharp class act.  Mike, I hope that going forward pregame will either fix it's chatroom (namely, taking out all of the joining & leaving room updates that clogged the whole feed) or just move to twitter.

Quite frankly I'm sure it's NO ONE's fault in particular. I really doubt the chat room was set up so that half of the people were put into a secondary room on purpose.

This is year 3 now of hook doing the draft on PG.  For 3 years now - PG has FAILED to handle it appropriately. Maybe when the NBA draft comes around - they will figure it out.... There is a such thing called USTREAM. It is FREE. Put mike on a live camera with the live feed of the draft on TV behind him. Can't get any better than that, and doesn't take a mental giant to figure out how to do this stuff.  Certainly not on hook here - I have followed his NFL and NBA drafts for 5 years now personally. Email PREGAME and tell them how you feel about it!  I am sure Mike would appreciate that.  Way too much work goes in for him to have his time wasted by tech failures that can be easily fixed by simply thinking ahead. I guess if they charged for his draft - more effort might go into it.

"21:17:39] Mike Hook:

There are so many peoople that think i no showed and are in some other room. I plead with you to say something in the forums when we are done here making money to say something. My brand is taking a hit, even though i'm here. Unreal"

noone is mad at you necessarily mike.    they are mad that there is obviously a problem and people that pay good money to get your picks cannot get them because the chat is screwed up.  This could have been solved real quick by simply switching to twitter once it was obvious there was an issue.  

There are paid subscribers that are not able to play these picks while some other freeloaders are cashing them all.  it is just wrong.   it was obvious there was an issue by 8:15 and now at 9:30 pregame has done nothing to remedy the issue.
