Small Draft Note: Orioles Draft Mike Flacco, Joe Flacco's brother

I know this is a Mets site but this is an interesting story. So I can pretty much guarantee that very few of you out there are Ravens fans but for the few of you that are, or the ones that follow the Ravens star Rookie quarterback, Joe Flacco. Yes Flacco mania hit the Baltimore area hard last year, and was a lot of fun to watch. Well the Orioles, in a mix of throwing a bone, making a story, and drafting a player with skills (in other words, this was NOT a throwaway pick as a favor that tends to happen in the later rounds), they drafted Joe Flacco's brother, Mike Flacco in the 31st round today and with the 926 pick. He was drafted out of Catonsville Community College and was drafted as a third basemen.

Now this would really become a story if he becomes a hidden phenom as the Flacoo brothers lead Baltimore into a tall Sports Stature and restore Baltimore's storied franchises. Yet, thats a long shot and really just a dream in writer's heaven when every sports story gets amazing twits and connections.
