Today, we are going to be doing the regulation best days of the year draft. My name is Jeff Ramsey with me, as always. Andrew Pantin, Gavin Free,
Starting point is 00:00:59 Eric Badoor, Nick Schwartz. Are you guys ready? Do you have your days prepared? Oh, I have so many days. This may be the draft I understand the least. You can't. What's not? I feel like you said that every draft, the past three drafts.
Starting point is 00:01:14 And then you showed us that you didn't understand the last one. We got to the last round. So like what don't, okay, Gavin, what don't you understand about this? What was the last round? I think it was the bird not bird. Yeah, and then like you got, yeah, you got to say. Like Superman? Superman?
Starting point is 00:01:30 And then you didn't want, and then you didn't want Nick to have one or something. It was really confusing. Not bird, not bird. But this is just simply best days of the year, Gavin. What's there not to get? Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Well, I hope I don't go first. I'll say that. So, okay. I want him to go first. Anything we can clarify? No. All right. Cool, man.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Well, you know, I can't get examples. I assume. I just don't want to go first really badly. I want to go fifth. Well, that's how you guarantee. go first. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Well, it's the best days of the year draft and also 365. I agree. And also, tomorrow we will have the worst days of the year draft, guys, back to back. So you can get the best, you can get the worst, you can know it all. And you
Starting point is 00:02:19 don't have to wait very long for it. And I think you check one of those out on Patreon. I think one of them is going to be on Patreon. So either this one or that one. Don't worry about it too much. It's going to be worse. That matters if you're listening to this, the day this video comes out. It is useless knowledge from that moment on. Absolutely. Yeah, because all the rest
Starting point is 00:02:35 of this knowledge is so crucial. Guys, we need to randomize how we do this snake draft because we go one, two, three, four, five, five, four, three, two, one. But we need to figure out what order we're going in. How many numbers? How many times? 365 days in a year, man.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Oh, God. You should have shut the, everyone should shut the fuck up. This is what I wanted. I'm happy about this. going to say seven or 12th. I was going to say seven also. Oh, that's in a week. Do you have one of those like muscle puncher
Starting point is 00:03:07 machine? Did you see summer of 98? That's a good Easter. That's pretty cool. How's your finger? That's fine. You're halfway there. Whoa. It goes around. What number do you think it got to? 150, I think, is about where it kicked. Nice. 69 was nice.
Starting point is 00:03:27 It just loops. Summer 98? Uh-oh. So was it 150, Jeff? I think it was right around 150. Well, we'll figure it out now, weren't we, when it loops again? When it loops again. So we're at?
Starting point is 00:03:38 Oh, it wasn't 150. Maybe 160? Nope. Oh, it was. 160. When it goes to 16. Interesting. Okay, so 160 times two.
Starting point is 00:03:49 But it's not, but it's not times two because it just goes to 16. So it would be 160 times two minus 16. 32, minus 32. No, no, no, no, because we only did it. My disco crashed. Oh, I see. I'm sorry, yes. Just do seven more, and that's good.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Seven more from 16. But we were at 304. All right, well, then do 52 more. Yeah, 52. Sean, by watching this, like, huh, all right. Didn't anticipate that. Didn't expect them to be this stupid. 50.
Starting point is 00:04:34 All right, guys, we got two more randomizations. This is where it would be. This is where it would be with Gavin. We have two more. Two more. It would be Gavin, Nick, Jeff, Andrew, Eric. Nick, Gavin, Andrew, Eric, and our final last one. Jeff, Eric.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Oh, shit. Damn it. Nick. Nice. Damn it. Can we just go with the Gavin one? Yeah, let's just go back to. And plus one to grow on.
Starting point is 00:05:03 One for flinching. Well, why do I hear myself in Gavin's? It's only Gavin's too. Mute me. I'm more concerned about the recording, but it's fine. You're muted. No, it'll be fine. It'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Okay. I'm so glad there were more clicks. All right. Are we ready to go? Do you guys got all your shit to figure out? I'm ready. Do you? I'm fucking, I was born ready, Nick.
Starting point is 00:05:24 I don't, listen, it's not according to last two or three drafts. It's not my fault. That's true. That's a great. That is a great. That's a great point. The last few drafts, Jeff is absolutely not wanted to go first, but today is raring to go.
Starting point is 00:05:37 I don't give a fuck, man. Back to back, I believe, first overall picks. I've been through hell and back. I've gone first in the worst possible situations. Going first today means nothing to me. Okay. All right. What's the best thing?
Starting point is 00:05:49 Tigers are still in the playoffs. Dodgers advance. What do I care? I'm happy. Sorry, Nick. Really rough a night for you. Okay. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:05:58 For my first pick in the best days of the year draft, I had a lot of, I had a lot of opportunity. There's 365 days in a year to pick from, and I'm only going to be picking four today, which leaves 361 very unhappy days that are wondering, why didn't Jeff like me? Why wasn't I enough for Jeff? I looked at, I surveyed all of the days.
Starting point is 00:06:22 I looked at each one equally. And I thought about days that are important to me in my life, days that I would consider to be the best days of the year. But then I thought, you remember that conversation we had a while back about how there were only 12 holidays in the U.S. and how shitty that is and how other countries have more holidays and how I said maybe we should declare a hooky day every year. Oh, yeah. To play hooky. You remember that. Well, I've taken that idea and I've plused it up a little bit.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Instead of picking from existing best days of the year, I'm going to create best days of the year. For instance, 3-4. March 4th, you're going into your third month of the year, you're just getting started, it's time for a break. March 4th, that's the first hooky day of the year. It's the first regulation hooky day. That is my first best day of the year, March 4th. So our first hooky day will be March 4th, 2026. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:11 What day of the week is that? Who cares? Well, I mean, if it's a weekend, it's a Wednesday, perfect. Yeah, there you go. It's one of the four best days of the year. Who cares? What if it's on a Sunday? Every day's a Sunday for you, if you want it to be.
Starting point is 00:07:26 All right. I don't think that's true. Every day's a Sunday for you. March 4th. There you go. Happy Sunday. March 4th. Let me tell you right now.
Starting point is 00:07:38 You guys make you little jokes right now, Nick? Your little bitter quips because of your team, I get it. I don't know what you're talking about. March 4th next year, you're going to be singing my praises because you're going to be playing hooky. It's like Peggle. He just picked Peggill. again it feels peggle he just yeah he decided that it's like oh i'm doing like this other thing and he's going he's just picking peggle again you're welcome i'm giving you days i appreciate it i'm taking it well i have
Starting point is 00:08:00 the second pick which is truly uh based on this the first pick of the best days of the year and i'm going with november first because because whoa when you're all done with the trick or treating oh my costume i did all this stuff all you my feet are so tired i've been walking around or what you wake up the next day, sack of candy hanging out. The air is crisp like the night before the sack of candy is ready and waiting for you. You don't have to share or divvy up with your younger brother who doesn't like this one, but I want this one. Who cares?
Starting point is 00:08:34 What you got is yours. You eat it to your heart's content. And when I was in grade school, when I was in elementary school, November 1st, you could bring your Halloween candy in and eat it all day long. That is why November 1st, the greatest one time. I think that's a terrible pick. It is certainly no March 4th. The air is crisp.
Starting point is 00:08:55 The air stinks of rotten pumpkin. Are you crazy? Why are you shitting on March 4th? It's going to be a holiday for you. You're going to fucking love it. The air stinks of rotting pumpkin? You know what you're going to be doing on November 1st? You're going to be going to be going to work.
Starting point is 00:09:08 You know what you're going to be doing on March 4th, taking the day off. Okay. He can take off on the first. Well, Gavin thought that was a terrible pick. I can call him sick if he wants to. November 1st is. is a Saturday. Oh, you can't even...
Starting point is 00:09:20 Hey, congrats on your day off. Hey, hey, every day's a Sunday. Gavin, Pumpkin's last till Thanksgiving, sometimes. Gavin, do you feel better about picking now after these first two picks? Uh, yeah, a little bit, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Yeah, yeah, yeah, a little bit, yeah. All right, go on. My first pick, the first of May. Now, May is a great month. It's the weather's getting all good. You've got the excitement of summer coming up. You've got all the plans coming up. May is really quick to write.
Starting point is 00:09:46 And, uh, myself. and some of my friends have some lovely Gemini birthdays. It's a, it's a day of optimism. There you go. You know what? That's what they're always saying about me. Yeah. I love, I love a day of optimism.
Starting point is 00:10:01 May 1st, 2025, Austin, Texas, 94 degrees. We're looking forward to summer, guys. We're getting primed. Oh, the days ahead. Bright and long. I should Gavin's thinking more globally than locally. Yeah. He's trying to include the entirety of our audience.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Not just the Austin. Globally on November 1st, where the air reeks of rotting pumpkins, all of globally, the steak. Well, the air is going to wreak of rotting pumpkins in more of America than it's going to be 94 degrees. That's a localized thing. May 1st. Do you have a note, Gavin, where May 1st is written? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:40 I can see his notes. It's right there. He's judging. No, I'm not judging. I'm just curious because he was confused. So, like, I was curious if this is what he had or if he had. adjusted or you know what? Very fair. You didn't go on the fly.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Well, I could have gone one of two ways with this. I think I went the correct way. I don't think so. Like you, Jeff. I'm excited to find out what the other way was. A lot of judgment for people's days. Zero judgment by me. Who's judging? Oh, no, I'm not hearing it from you, Andrew.
Starting point is 00:11:07 I'm hearing it from across the room. Hello. That's the one. Oh, the one, yeah. Andrew, do you not know the seating plan of the office? You and Jeff and then Nick and Eric. That's us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:19 I guess I do. They made a really big deal about sitting next to each other. And they're still, like they're still talking about it. You goddamn right, we have. We did. And we're happy about it.
Starting point is 00:11:30 We can hold hands while we play video games now. It's true. And I can fought on someone who's fought on me for 15 years. That's a good day. Well, well, shit. Speaking of years,
Starting point is 00:11:43 a year has days. And Andrew has his next pick with the day, the best day of the year. The best day of the year, uneniably, is a day that doesn't occur just once. You guys are really focusing in on singular days when you don't need to. There's better days than just a single day. This was the other way I was thinking of. Yeah, I had a feeling.
Starting point is 00:12:04 I had the same thought. My best day of the year is payday. That's a good day. Every payday of the year. What, Gavin? I'm not done making my pick before you complain about. Sorry, I couldn't hear you because I was in the midst of making my pick. Yeah, yeah, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:12:23 Let me stop making my pick so you can, no, no complaint. Tell me what's wrong with it while I was still explaining it. Well, I was, my first pick originally was payday, and then I thought, well, there's, I assume, 12 or 24 of those, and people would be like, which payday? And then I got all, I just started. Any payday is a great payday. There's nothing. I think it's acceptable.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Okay. Worse than you're at the end of a month, and then you're trying to, trying to make ends meet and it's stressful, let's say. Maybe you're trying to figure out a food thing. Then you hit that payday and all of that money goes to bills and other things, but you're excited about it. You'll get yourself a burger, potentially. It's a great day.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Optimism. You're saying May 1st, optimistic day, payday, all-time optimistic day. And there's several of them throughout the year. Yeah, I mean, your pick really eclipsed Gavin's pick right away. I mean, assuming you have a job, what if you're, what if you got late? If you got laid off, then you don't have one. Yeah, then you don't celebrate a payday. Then you got to anticipate, you got to wait for May 1st.
Starting point is 00:13:22 You got to hope that May 1st hasn't happened yet. That's a day of optimist. Otherwise, you've got to wait a year. If it's past May 1st and you've been laid off, it's just your year is over by the sounds of it. Yeah, you can wait for November 1st when the air reeks of rotting pumpkins. Yep. Payday, payday on the board. Nick, what you got?
Starting point is 00:13:43 Going with, I think, a better day in May. May 11th, the founding of this very company that we... Wow. ...are among. Rising from the ashes. That's a pretty good pick, I think. That is a way. It is a way.
Starting point is 00:13:58 I hadn't thought about making it personal in that way. Didn't really consider it a great day, but I guess I should. Yeah. Yeah, as we discuss, it's also the day where we did a Minecraft let's play for the first time. Say I signed up on the website. I should have picked that day. I don't think you got the game Gavin said you had the optimistic
Starting point is 00:14:18 May 1st where you were 10 days away from doing some really exciting stuff my May 11th was far more optimistic I would say you were merely you were merely always a week and a half away from life-changing events shit you even have half the number
Starting point is 00:14:36 Nick great May 11 so that plus all the other shit Gavin said about you know summer coming up yeah whatever That feels, May 11th feels way more optimistic to me than, I think so, personally, personally. I like it. I picked it. You did. And now you also get your second pick in this draft.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Now, this one is, I think, personal to me, but I think a lot of people can agree with me on this. I'm going with the day after Thanksgiving, the Friday, the day after, right? It's the day where you can calm down from seeing all the family. You've had that camaraderie. You've seen, or, you know, or you're out of it now. Thank goodness. Whatever. whichever way your family goes.
Starting point is 00:15:15 But on Friday, you get to sit down, watch some college football, you get to enjoy yourself, and there's leftovers, and you don't have to deal with the pressure of dealing with other people. Just let it all come in. And it is cool and crisp,
Starting point is 00:15:28 and there might still be the smell of pumpkin in the air because it's not quite winter yet. I mean, isn't it just Black Friday? Why are you cooling it the day after Thanksgiving? I don't go Black Friday sales. I love opening presents the day after Christmas Eve. It's a great day.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Yeah, I would consider Black Friday. Black Friday to be one of the worst things. I don't consider Black Friday to be a holiday. That's why I didn't say Black Friday. I said a day after Thanksgiving, different. Yeah, I guess if he said Black Friday, he would be specifically noting the events that occurred during Black Friday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I don't give a shit about that. I'm sitting at home. Yeah, he's adjacent to... You know, online looking for Cyber Monday deals? No, that's Monday, silly goose. All right. Are you doing Black Friday Cyber Monday stuff or what's up? It's all the same day at this point.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Yeah, it's all bullshit. It's just a week of stuff pretending to be on sale. Marked up to be marked down. I probably wouldn't have picked this day, but it's a good, like you're done with like the obligation. You're on the other side of a big one. And I don't really care about college football, but, you know, it's a nice day.
Starting point is 00:16:30 It's a day off. And you know it's a Friday, which is nice. So that's pretty good. Jeff, thoughts? I would, I don't know. I would figure a day after Thanksgiving is cool if you like sports and your family. but it could just be a lot of apologizing for who you know the fight at dinner the night before
Starting point is 00:16:47 and then feeling bad about yourself because you ate too much and now you're like I got to start fucking running because I look like shit in the mirror and I can't believe I ate an entire fucking pie by myself I don't know that can wait until Monday cyber Monday yeah is this a bounce back jab or do you feel like you have to come back at Nick because you felt he was coming at you earlier no I think no I think May 11th is a great pick by Nick I think that was an awesome pick I have no criticisms there. I think that was... That's probably going to end up
Starting point is 00:17:14 being the best pick on the board when it's all said and done. I just... I don't consider the day after Thanksgiving to be a good day. Okay, well, there you have it. Luckily, we're only in the second round because we go to Andrew next
Starting point is 00:17:25 with his second pick. Second pick, I'm thinking about my life as a whole. Most excited about days. There's a constant. There's a constant day that, oh, an excitement. Because it opens up to a whole,
Starting point is 00:17:40 section of days, months of days, and that is the first day of summer break. It's an incredible day. You're done with school. You have your whole summer in front of you. Get to do whatever you want. You play games. The weather's nice. You have swimming. No stress. Don't have to think about anything school-related. No dumb projects. No work. Just get to relax and enjoy the summer. When was the last time you got to enjoy the first day of summer break? Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. I was a teenager. Yeah, when I was in school, when I was a kid. What are you now?
Starting point is 00:18:15 I'm an adult, but here's the thing, though. I'm thinking about my life. Those are truly, when I think back of best days of my life, the feeling of knowing I don't have school for like two months. You don't have school for 60 years now. What do you mean? Every day of your life is the first day of summer break. But now I pay taxes.
Starting point is 00:18:39 I have responsibilities. I'm an adult. I'm constantly having to do adult things. As a kid, I hit summer, and my responsibilities ended. It's a nice memory for sure, but now, like, as it affects me now, the last day of, the first day of summer break is like, oh, shit, there's kids everywhere now. Now I can't go to minigolf. Because now, like, the only thing...
Starting point is 00:19:05 They go theme parks for the next two months. Yeah, that's what Nick has now, is that he's got to figure out what to do with this little rascal for like the next three months or whatever. Oh, fuck. Hey, Nick, how great is the first day of summer break for a parent? I'll let you know this year. Nick is, Nick's kid is right at the age where it's about to happen. He's got to figure out what to do with them during the week.
Starting point is 00:19:25 I'm not drafting based on my parents' best days of the year or Nick's best days of the years. No, you're drafting based on when you were nine years old. I'm basing several. You're drafting on a window of like seven years. Yeah. And those were a great seven years, Jeff. Oh, phenomenal. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:19:48 God damn. That's fair. You can take your May 1st optimism. I got two months of optimism. Well, again, it's Gavin's May 1st optimism. I'm excited to see what Jeff's next pick is because March 4th is still the first pick on the board. But now with May optimism in the rear view, we go to Gavin to see what his. His second pick is.
Starting point is 00:20:09 How do you have two months of optimism? Surely at the end of two months, you're not optimistic. You're like, oh, I've got to go back to school. Yeah. That doesn't happen. Well, I guess, yeah. You know what? It was so long ago.
Starting point is 00:20:19 I don't even remember what months I had off. But it started becoming a bummer. One of you would get YouTube ads for school supplies going on saying. I didn't have YouTube when I had summer break. Commercials. They were commercials. They were on television. That sounds like a you problem.
Starting point is 00:20:35 A great, great day of optimism, Andrew. Just like the way. 1st of May, I'm going to pick another day of optimism. In a day of excitement, looking ahead, like, ooh, oh, you know. I would say that I get bummed out in the year around November 1st. To me, there's nothing to look forward to in that month. It's just gray, you know, grown up in England especially. Oh, yeah, it's the best.
Starting point is 00:20:59 But on December 21st, which is notable, was the shortest day of the year. It's kind of cool. It's like, wow, I went to school in the dark and came home in the dark. that's kind of crazy but now the days are getting longer and that is optimism 21st of December
Starting point is 00:21:13 this guy's allowed to bring up school experiences and no one's going to go on the attack here I was waiting for him to finish because he's using this England example thing or whatever
Starting point is 00:21:22 but surely you're not going to be spending your November's in England we don't want to interrupt him like he interrupts you well here's the thing it could also apply to school I mean for work
Starting point is 00:21:32 damn it can apply to work I went to work to the dark ah shit This might be the most useless draft. That I think, I'm going to call it. Now, I think there's a good chance someone's going to get legitimately angry
Starting point is 00:21:47 by the end of it. I think this is going to be one of those ones that somebody's going to take a break after we're done recording. I can feel it coming. I'm feeling good. I don't think it's me today. I know.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I feel good about everybody's days. I feel great. I'm feeling May 1st optimistic, honestly. Oh, yeah. Well, Eric, why don't you take that optimism? into your next pick. Why, Jeff, that's exactly what I'm going to do because the optimism isn't just for looking forward to summer.
Starting point is 00:22:13 No, no. Because there are many extravagant holidays around December, mostly Christmas, well, really only Christmas. And I'm going to pick December 15th because you are only 10 days away from Christmas, but you get all of the festivities, all of the joy, all of the decoration, all of the fun and, of Christmas, but for so much time beforehand, where you're not actually celebrating Christmas itself. And, and it's six days before Gavin's other pick. Wow. And you're off from school.
Starting point is 00:22:51 That's true. You know what? Hey, I hadn't even considered that Nick. Thank you so much. When I think about my life and I think of the great moments in it, there's a time in which I was watching Viva, BAM in the sixth grade on DVD I was catching up and I was halfway through season two and I went Holy shit this is great I'm having a great time no school halfway through season two then I realized I had a whole other week of winter break for Christmas wow upcoming well blew my mind nothing to watch just sitting down watching ho ho ho don't he knows coming down the chimney with turbanie negro gonna leave the craziest present under the tree apes gonna be so pissed another another nice thing about December 15th Eric a lot of people don't know this it is the emptiest
Starting point is 00:23:35 of the year at Disneyland, the Disney World. So it's the best time to attend. He's right. I didn't think about it until right now. Another thing about December 15th. That's my mom's birthday. Oh, wow. What a pick.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Wow. Maybe December 15th, totally eclipsing May 11th is the best pick on this board. Incredible. Many are saying it, but we go to Jeff now as he's going to make his second and then third picks. You're damn right. I am, and I'm very excited to do it. As we all know, May 1st is.
Starting point is 00:24:05 the regulation day of optimism. May 11th is our anniversary. Okay. But sandwiched right in the middle of those two days on May 6th, 5-6, is the second regulation hooky day of the year. It comes about two months after the previous hooky day.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Right when you're about ready, you're starting to stare at the walls, you're starting to get annoyed with having to get up and go to work, you're starting to get frustrated. You need a fucking break, and then boom, May 6 hits. It's a regulation hooky day. It's a Wednesday. It is another Wednesday. Another Wednesday. Right in the middle of the week, right in the middle of that week, you get a break.
Starting point is 00:24:38 I really like this idea that Jeff just knows that he's going to have to do stuff May 4th, 6th, and whatever his next days are and is creating a reason as to why. Oh, Emily, we actually can't go. Oh, no, Emily, I have, oh, oh, no, we actually can't go to that. Today's hooky day for regulation. I have to celebrate. Oh, no. I can celebrate by going to doing something fun with my wife if she's got something going on.
Starting point is 00:24:59 No, I meant more for like doing like he knows he's going to go somewhere. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like he's out. No, I can't. He predicts he's going to be out on. Plan that far in advance. Can I, uh...
Starting point is 00:25:10 Can I predict your next pick? Yeah, I think Gavin's the only person who's fucking smart enough to. Hey, go ahead, Gavin. What do you think it is? Would it be the 8th of July? Let's look at my... Look at my board. My third pick for regulation best days of the year coming in at July 8th.
Starting point is 00:25:32 It is our third regulation. Hockey Day, it comes just four days after 4th of July. There's nothing better than when you get a big holiday and then you fucking, you enjoy the whole weekend and you have fun and you grill and you go swimming and you hang out with your friends, maybe you go in
Starting point is 00:25:48 or two, and maybe you shoot out some fireworks. Maybe if you drink, you do that, whatever your thing is. And then you're like, oh, that was fucking great. And then you go back to work and you're like, man, I wish I could have another fucking day off like that. But it's a long time until the next July 4th. But it's not a long time until July 8th when you do get another break.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Just wanted to point out that I think the original purpose of the hooky days was to fill out these other months with stuff that we could have. So that way you have days off. You're putting this four days after the 4th of July. Which is when it comes. I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. I also don't need this hooky day because I'm on summer break.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Yeah, you just give Andrew another reason not to go to school? That's fucked up, man. I'm pretty sure I'd still be at school in July 8. Yeah, it's tough. Well. Wait, we went. No, hell no. We don't need that in May or June.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Well, July 8th on the board, but I'm next. And I'm going to stay right around Jeff here. And I'm going to say July 1st. July 1st is right before the 4th of July. You got all your planning. You're going to go buy your fireworks. And guys, most importantly, RTX is just right around the corner. Oh.
Starting point is 00:26:54 And so excited to celebrate. We can't wait once again to descend upon Austin, Texas for RTF one more year. And that's why July 1,000. to me is the third best day of the year. You're telling me that I'm going to be able to go get myself a thing of cream soda and see Andy Circus
Starting point is 00:27:13 in one place. Peko's Pete, baby. What hell of the day? It's everything you could ever want. The convention center is currently torn down. That is correct. We're going to have to figure something else out maybe. But I feel good about July 1st.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Middle of summer, not in the dog days. you're also on summer break so no school that's true he got it july first i you know what i do think the convention center being down might not be the biggest hurdle in having an r tx all things consider there might there might be other problems that would have to be solved first yeah but the convention center certainly doesn't help not that's all i'm saying but gavin you have your third pick here what do you got well it's a good day uh it's been sung about It's the day of my anniversary. It's another 21st.
Starting point is 00:28:06 It's the 21st of September. Oh, nice. Wow. Yeah. Bada, yeah. What? What? He was singing the song.
Starting point is 00:28:15 What song? Earthward of Fire. Yeah. Oh, okay, okay. Do you remember the 21st night of September? Yeah. Oh. When you said they sung about it,
Starting point is 00:28:27 in my head I went, that's not that all impressive because there's the Monday, But-da-B-da-B-Tuesday, but-a-b-B-B-B-B-B-B-B. Every day of the week is covered in that song. That's the cure. Oh, yeah. So every day, technically has been sung about.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Monday, but-a-b-b-b-ba-ba. September 21st, this is a good one. They sing about specifically the night of September 21st. So you have all day. So you have all day. day to plan the night of September 21st. That's fun. And, uh, and you just, uh, you celebrated your anniversary on September 21st. So congratulations, Gavin.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Thank you. Andrew. What you got? October 5th, 2001. Uh, uh, it's unlike any other day. Go ahead, Eric. Make your guess. What? Oh, I'm definitely not making my guess. Am I putting the year specifically? Yes. But it's best days of the, of the year.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Well, because on October 5th, 2001, of that. year. A great day was created. A great day was made. A story told of a day. None other than a training day. October 5th, 2001, the release of Training Day, an all-time movie. I love Training Day. Infantly rewatchable. One of the great. I mean, there are many great, but added to the list of the old time. I've seen Training Day. No, no, no, no. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That was, hey, guys, that's on me. Um, did you happen to see Training Day on October 5th, 2001? I'd have no idea.
Starting point is 00:30:04 I mean, it's October 5th, 2001. What was I doing in October? That's what we want to know. You tell us. What about you? No, because I would have been like six when this. Okay. So your best day isn't the day that you saw Training Day.
Starting point is 00:30:18 No, it's the day that Training Day existed into the world without that day occurring. Then Training Day would not be out. So your best day, one of your best days of the year is October 5th, 2001. Yeah, it's an all-time great day. I can see why we're shitting on my days. That makes total sense. I'm not shitting on your days at all. I'm not, no, I'm with you, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:30:37 October 5th, 2001. Is this a legal pick? I don't think, I don't know. It has to be year specific. Well, it's best days of the year. And is October 5th, 2001, not a day of a year? It's the day of a year. Not the year.
Starting point is 00:30:53 I mean, otherwise, I would have picked, like, I thought, I would have, yeah, I would have picked, like, really specific dates. I would have picked, like, my daughter's, birthday. Yeah, right? Like, I would pick like really specific dates in the past. The 2001 is the thing that's throwing me. I mean, you still could pick your daughter's birthday. It happens every year. I just thought that that was outside of the, yeah, but. Because it's not, because this is the best I didn't pick October. I didn't pick the guy who says March 4th, May 6th, July 8 is like, oh, I can't pick a singular day. I'm creating national holidays that exist every year for goof world.
Starting point is 00:31:24 That's true. You know, it's a good point. Gavin, what do you think? Yeah, Gavin, where are you stand on this? I don't think it matters. I think I got three no votes on this. Well, I, uh, we're not, we're not a no. We're just, we're talking it through. I'm just talking it through. I didn't say I was a no. Let me think about the name of the draft. Okay. It's, it's also written right here. Days of the year. It is a day of a year. It is a day of a year. I'm going to allow it. I'm going to allow it. I think technically I'm seeing the year there. I think I'll allow that. Yeah. I don't know. All right. You know what? That's fine. You want to allow it. That's fine. I mean, that's, if you don't allow this,
Starting point is 00:31:58 my worst day is draft is going to have a lot of problems. Okay. We're going to need like 10 minutes to reshuffle a whole neck if this pick gets blocked in this dress. I'm just curious. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:19 I love draft interpretations. Okay, well, October 5th, 2001 is on the board. And we go to Nick with the final two picks here that he has for the best days of the year. What is your third round pick? Oh, this is a day I get to spend in the kitchen working my magic, putting things together.
Starting point is 00:32:36 I get to spend the day with my boy. I get to spend it watching football. I'm going with Thanksgiving. Okay, so two of your picks are in a row. You mean the day before? Also, also, the thing that you were saying about the day after Thanksgiving is that all this stress is done. You don't have to worry anymore.
Starting point is 00:32:57 And then your next pick is the day that it's stressing you out? No, no. See, I think the stress could be applied to, you know, seeing family and spending time with family. But in this instance, I really enjoy that. I think it's really fun. Now, you're not going to believe this. Nick. But my last pick, wait, wait, wait, before you move off Thanksgiving, I need a clarification.
Starting point is 00:33:18 We talk in Canadian or U.S. Thanksgiving. U.S. That is not a serious question, I see. No, it's not. Do you realize that one of these, these picks just out invalidate each other. So which one is, no, no, see, I'm talking about from other people's perspectives. Mine is totally fine. I'm saying the stress of whatever is done.
Starting point is 00:33:37 I like the stress of being in the kitchen and doing all that stuff. Now, I don't want to, I don't want to hurry you up. I don't want to hurry you up. Yeah. However, however, yeah, I really want to know since we'll stay on you for this, what is your last pick? It's the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It's a little less good because you got fewer leftovers. Is it two days after Thanksgiving?
Starting point is 00:34:04 Yeah, two days after Thanksgiving. Your draft board is May 11th. The day after Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, it was my favorite break from school. Back as a kid. But here's the thing. You're not in this. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:34:21 you're down on a bit you still have leftovers I don't know if anyone's actually listening at this point I have leftovers I'm enjoying them there's still a Saturday of rivalry college football and there's still a football
Starting point is 00:34:36 NFL Sunday to come so if you had so if you had one more pick you'd pick three days after Thanksgiving well I ran out of picks Nick has a Nick really gives a show about one week a year Nick do you want to change your first pick
Starting point is 00:34:50 to six months in two weeks before Thanksgiving. No. It's almost summer. I hate the summer. It's so crazy. Based on what you're saying, I think two days after Thanksgiving should be above Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 00:35:02 No, disagree. Because there's more food and there's more opportunity for football coming up. I think it's absolutely insane that you've drafted the day after Thanksgiving before Thanksgiving. But it's a better day because I get to wake up late. I get to enjoy myself. I get to sit and eat the leftovers I've already made. But I do love to cook, but not enough to overthrow the day after Thanksgiving. Nick, I think you're sick.
Starting point is 00:35:31 This is truly like, this might be your best draft, Nick. This is crazy. The week after Thanksgiving must be such a bummer for Nick because all of his favorite days is so far away. Oh, it's the worst. Oh, my God. It's the worst. Back to school. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Oh, man. Well, Nick round it. out as bored, and we go to Andrew with his final pick, the best days of the year. Holy shit, dude. Okay. I want to pick here. There's a lot of days in the year. Just for the record, you already pick Training Day Day Day, Day.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Yeah, it's off the board. October 6th, 2001, you can see Training Day again. Do, like, October 12th or whatever, be like, number one in the box office, two in center of me. We're still soaring. Oh, man. Oh, I am going to go with a day.
Starting point is 00:36:24 There's a, there's a board in front of me, and I'm looking at a bunch of days on it. And so I'm going to go with December. No, it's not a calendar. It's a draft board. Yeah, you fool. You fool. I am going to take, based on other person's logic,
Starting point is 00:36:47 I like where they're at. I like where their heads at. I'm taking December 16th for all the reasons that Eric took December 15th, but it's a day closer to Christmas, so it's even more exciting. Wow. That's a great pick. See, that's my dad's birthday, so I'm not even thinking about Christmas at that point. I'm just thinking about my dad hanging out with Big Ron. That is, you picked my mom's birthday and I drafted your dad's. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Oh my God. We got parents' birthdays. What if we hooked your parents up and they fell in love? Well, my dad is currently married to my mom. Well, he'd have to leave her, Eric. I'm sorry. How do you feel about that? And he did predict divorce this year.
Starting point is 00:37:35 For us. For us, you fool. Step brothers in real life. I don't. I couldn't. I don't think I could. I don't know about that. Step brothers might be.
Starting point is 00:37:46 Who's putting his nuts on whose drum set. Hey, how do you think Thanksgiving would be in that house? Oh, my God. Yeah, Nick's draft picture would be crazy where me and my stepbrother Andrew are hanging out. Oh, you get two of them. He's Canadian, American. You get two Thanksgiving. I'll cook on both.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Do you get citizenship through stepbrother? Yeah. My favorite part of this draft to this point is now when American Thanksgiving rolls around, I'm just going to know how fucking happy Nick is for like the nice. He's thrilled. He's going to be so excited. I think we should post this grid somewhere of all the picks and just try and see if people can guess what we're drafting. Oh, man. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Well, Gavin, you have your final pick. What you got? Well, I'm looking on the good side of a dog shit situation for this pick. I'm not a fan. I'm not a fan. of daylight savings, right? I think it's a stupid idea. It's stupid and pointless.
Starting point is 00:38:52 I thought about this. However, as a British person living in America, I really like the 9th of March this year because the clocks go back. No, they go forwards. Oh my God. That's the worst one. You're taking the bad one.
Starting point is 00:39:10 The clocks go forwards in America. Oh, my Discord crashed again. Hold on. His Discord keeps crashing. The clocks go forwards. in America, but they haven't gone back yet in England, and they won't do for another two weeks, which means
Starting point is 00:39:25 I'm only five hours off set from my family instead of six. That's a great one. And it means that I can text them an hour longer each day, and they're still awake. Sorry, what was the specific date for that, the specific day? 2025, it was the 9th of March.
Starting point is 00:39:41 So are you drafting the 9th of March? I'm just making sure. Sure. I'm definitely, it's no in school at this time. Wait, what? What's it next year? Do you just want to, how about just the day after daylight savings?
Starting point is 00:39:57 The day after spring forward. Is my pick. This is what I was asking of just like, what do you want me to write down? What day was it this year? I don't know, man. You drafted it. The day after daylight savings
Starting point is 00:40:13 is on the board. And guys, I have my fourth and final pick. Yesterday is history. tomorrow is a mystery today is a gift from God which is why they call it the present
Starting point is 00:40:27 my final pick today the best day of the year I thought you're going to go December 17 I was going to be really upset about it I thought you're going to want up my one up
Starting point is 00:40:42 I kind of feel like that was your tea at home that's today is a gift Eric took Eric took the check and he's having his... God himself. That's your most poetic pick ever, I think. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:40:58 And that is... That means your best day of the year is all 365 of them. That's right. Disqualified. Locked in. Well, there you have it. Eric's best day locked in today. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:41:14 A beautiful day. Because the day we're drafting this, best day of the year. Hey, the day you're listening to this, it's the best day of the year. Are you all right? Who? Never mind. Okay. He's not paying attention.
Starting point is 00:41:30 He dropped it. Jeff, that's me. The mystery is here. What will be the final pick? Hold on a second. Let me check my notes. Okay. Where did I have these?
Starting point is 00:41:42 Those are my worst day. Oh, here we go. Okay, so my last best day, it looks like it's a hooky day. Again, I've threaded the needle. The previous hooky day was, what was that, July 8th? That's right. We're penciling in the final regulation hooky day of the year.
Starting point is 00:41:59 You don't want it too late in the year because it gets real holiday heavy. Most of our U.S. holidays are in the back half of the year. So it's pointless to have it in October, November, December. We've already got plenty of breaks there. So we're going to have it in September. Careful. We're going to have it on, let's see. Oh, I have it written down. 9-10. September 10th is the final hokey day of the year. Regulation Hockey Day of the Year. There you go. March 4th, May 6th, July 8th, September 10th, you do not have to work in Goof World. That's a satisfying column of picks to look at. This is what I think about every time. September 10th, 2001. Look at this. A man celebrating, celebrating the original hooky day.
Starting point is 00:42:45 there you go. Congratulations on your final pick, Jeff. He was less than a month away from watching Training Day in the theater for the first time. That's what that smile on his face said. He was really feeling it. Probably watching a trailer on TV.
Starting point is 00:42:58 That's right. Well, the best days of the year draft is locked in. And here's the board. Jeff with March 4th, May 6th, July 8th, September 10th. I have picked November 1st, December 15th. July 1st and today.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Gavin has picked the most optimistic day, May 1st, December 21st, September 21st, and the day after daylight savings. Andrew has picked payday, first day of summer break, October 5th, 2001, and December 16th. And finally, Nick has picked May 11th, the day after Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, two days after Thanksgiving. real Andrew's drawer situation there with Nick's picks. Yeah, they are. It's weird right? It's weird. I think
Starting point is 00:43:51 Nick, this is your this is your strangest draft? Yeah. Okay, that's it. But I can reach the lowest drawer with my foot on two days after Thanksgiving. Yeah, it's a good one. I agree with Jeff completely. I think this is a drawer situation. Yeah. This kind of makes me want
Starting point is 00:44:09 to release the regulation calendar with all of these marks on the day. Big circle days. We used to make calendars. for the first like seven years of rooster teeth they were a big deal for us every year and they are such a fucking nightmare to make you have to like get them made in like May the cutoff is June
Starting point is 00:44:28 it's so insane you are right Gavin a goof world calendar seems like something that we that should exist but it's way too late to make it for 226 well we'd also have to make it for 2001 if we want all of Andrews' case at the end of the 27 Goof World calendar
Starting point is 00:44:46 that'll have days of honorable mention. Oh, man. Oh, shit. Well, guys, there it is. The best days of the year. Locked in. Let us know who you think won this draft. Who had the best calendar for you
Starting point is 00:45:00 or for, I guess, all of us. Leave a comment. Let a friend know. Check out the Patreon. Check out the gameplay channels. Guys, how are you feeling about this list? Invincible. I feel great about some of it.
Starting point is 00:45:10 Yeah, it looks like. It's feeling invincible about this list. You're feeling invincible? You know what? I'm feeling thankful. This is one of those drafts where I'm really excited to see the audience picks. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. If I was an audience member, I know who I would vote for.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Me too. Just off the rip. It's okay. Make sure to head to the Patreon for the poll as well, where you can vote if enough time hasn't passed yet for who has won this draft. Yeah, but if it already passed, then this is already passed, then this is useful, useless information from Gavin. Or you can see who won. You click the collections tab and then go to draft polls and check it out. See who won.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Or just live your day. So it was helpful. Just live your day. Today's a gift. It's the best day. All right, guys. Eric's fourth pick. Thanks for watching.
