Jerry Jones Will Be All Alone While Making the Cowboys' Draft Picks and Twitter Can't Wait: TRAINA THOUGHTS

1. Joe Burrow is a college legend who will be selected No. 1 in tonight's NFL draft. Tua Tagovailoa will be the most intriguing pick of the draft. However, it will be an old reliable who could give everyone watching the most entertainment.

Reports say Cowboys owner Jerry Jones will be like Kevin McAllister in Home Alone while making selections. No one will be around to talk Jerry out of doing something crazy. Sure, his son Stephen will probably be on the phone or on FaceTime, but if Jerry doesn't want his input, he can just hang up and go rogue—which we all need.

This scenario had Twitter all worked up hours before the first round.

#Cowboys owner Jerry Jones home alone on draft night: “One of the things I'm not going to miss is when I came out of those draft rooms over the weekend, my old shins used to have big old bruises on them. That was from Stephen kicking me under the table for three straight days.”

Remember when Jerry Jones wanted to draft Johnny Manziel, but was talked into the sensible pick, G Zack Martin? There won’t be anyone in Jones’ home tonight to prevent him from going rogue. Must-watch TV

I’m hoping tonight we see a picture of Jerry Jones at his computer with a big bucket of kFC on one side and a handle of Jack on the other. Let’s do this.

I love how we talk about Jerry Jones and the draft the same way we'd discuss a Saint Bernard and a big bowl of chocolate.

"Oh no, we can't leave him alone! You know he has no self-control; he'll eat the entire thing!" https://t.co/lcNTtXCqoB

Jerry Jones alone in the war room is a very scary thought #NFLDraft @dallascowboys

2. Good Morning America gave us a taste of what's to come tonight by interviewing NFL commissioner Roger Goodell from his basement.

I don't know if ESPN's technology tonight will be much different from GMA's, but we really could be in for a bumpy ride this evening. Goodell's audio left a lot to be desired and his video was not clear, especially compared to Robin Roberts's feed.

On a side note, when did Goodell and Conan O'Brien become lookalikes?

.@nflcommish talks to @robinroberts about the 1st ever virtual draft tonight and why it was important to carry on with the 2020 #NFLDraft amid coronavirus. His message to players: “With all that’s going on, we need more experiences together.” pic.twitter.com/EQ2nHQmbr2

3. Even though he's back in the NFL, Rob Gronkowski is still taking his role as the WWE's 24/7 Champion—or as he put it, "the 24/7 WWE title belt champion"—very serious.

5. Sopranos stars, and the hosts of the new Talking Sopranos podcast, Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa, joined the latest episode of the SI Media Podcast. We went in-depth on many aspects of the show: the writing, whether things were ad-libbed, the deaths of Bobby and Christopher, Pine Barrens and much more. The guys also defended the Knicks and James Dolan.
