ever feel bad for others in your draft

I had a draft tonight with coworkers and at a certain point I just felt bad for them. It was bad enough they let me get Ray Rice, CJ2K, DMC, Julio, and AJ with my first five picks, but they had people making crazy arse picks. Btw I had pick #4
One guy took Brady first round the turned around and took luck the second pick. Another took Cam in round 2 then RG3 in round 3 and tried to take a qb in round 6 before I stepped in and said something. Another was gonna take Brandon Jacobs in round 6 before I stepped in.
The topper was in round 5 though, the guy stood up and said I have the sleeper of the draft and got all excited, then proceeded to draft Joseph Addai. When i busted out laughing he got mad and defensive. I pretty much made him pick somebody else because it was just unfair.
Guess I just dont understand how somebody, no matter how new to FF, could make picks like this. I even gave everybody cheat sheets before the draft just to make sure everybody atleast has a baseline.
Anybody else ever been in a draft like this where you feel sorry for other players?
sorry stepping off my soap box now.

Ya I've had people who are obsessed with the saints do they'll draft Drew Brees first and get guys like PT and Lance Moore way before they should've gone

yea I didnt say anything until it got to the point where I almost couldnt lose. wish i could have gotten a better TE but they were going crazy with them. Tony G went before Gronk in the second round. Denver TE, whitten, owen daniels went in the fourth. One guy picked RB, QB, QB, TE, TE I was like WTF?
my team ended up being drafted in this order
Rice
CJ2k
DMC
Julio
Aj green
ryan Matthews
Matt ryan
brandon lloyd
dwayne bowe
doug martin
jermine gresham
jeremy maclin(vin jackson went 1 pick before this)
NYG defense
Garrett hartley
jay cutler
rest of the league is fricked. Keep in mind its a 10 team league, standard scoring non keeper.

What is the fun in playing with idiots like this? I wouldn't even like to be around such sports ignorance. It would make me cringe and desire to be with other, cooler people.

im only doing it because its a work league and its easy money. first place is $250 and I dont see how I can lose.

i would be pretty pissed about this

when the other nine players are all making crazy picks, their is no reason to get mad. Just gotta realize your stealing from them, come to grips with that, and have fun with your winnings.
I would be mad if this was my big league but its a secondary league for me. just easy money.

That's pretty bad. I've seen some bad shite, but nothing close to that.
The most recent I can remember is in my own league last year, one team took Packers D/ST in the 5th and Nate Kaeding in the 7th.
