CGS Draft Kicks Off with “Muffinman” Anderson @SXSW08
In front of a throng of fans assembled under the klieg lights of the Austin Convention Center, Dallas Venom selected Forza player Justin “Muffinman” Anderson for the first pick announced in the Championship Gaming Series 08 Draft. “It feels awesome to get everything out of the way–all the pressure’s off. Now it’s just time to perform,” said a beaming Anderson. “I think the Dallas Venom will have a big chance from last year. We’ve got a solid team, so look for us at the top.” Teams Los Angeles Complexity, New Yord 3D, San Francisco Optx, Carolina Core, and Chicago Chimera also announced their picks for the 2008 North American season, which starts in June. Congratulations to all the draftees! If you missed live coverage of the draft on DirecTV, check out the CGS site for a liveblog of the event along with complete draft results.
