Open Champions League Draw Thread

Before we get started, I feel like something is necessary here to set the mood. (No, not that kind of mood, you sickos.)

Ah, much better. Now we can get on with the show.

As if we didn't have enough going on with the transfer rumor nonsense, we've got this little thing called the "Champions League Draw." I don't know if you've heard of it. Supposedly this is some big thing worth a lot of money and prestige. And there's a cool trophy that comes along with it. Wonder what all the fuss is about...

Okay, enough with the schtick.

Today is the day that Juventus' first step in attempt to dominate all of Europe begins. Group of death? Group of favorable opposition? Group of one or two challenges and then a European newbie? So many possibilities await Antonio Conte and his players, so little time to think of all of the options.

We'll see you once all the secrets are revealed. Let us think good thoughts and avoiding any kind of superpowers of European football until the later stages of this little competition.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DRAW TIME: 5:45 P.M. IN ITALY; 11:45 A.M. ON THE EAST COAST; 8:45 A.M. ON THE WEST COAST.
