Okay, that's quite enough.

0:01.9

All right, let's get to this.

0:03.4

This is an exciting moment.

0:05.9

This is something, I know, we're idiots.

0:08.6

But in our time away from talking sports, we do debate dumb crap, like Christmas movies.

0:14.4

So with our schedules being all wild, I know Evan will not be here.

0:19.0

You work from home tomorrow, and then you're out next week.

0:21.7

I'm here Monday. Gone. Then Rico's gone. Look, it's just we wanted to have one of our drafts.

0:28.4

We can't help it. We're dumb. So what are the rules of this? As Kenny, I know, was putting things together.

0:35.0

Take me through how we're doing this. So it's going to be a three-round draft because I feel like any more and that's a bit excessive. That's already, what, 15 movies? So we're going to go serpentine draft. We're going to go back and forth. We have selected the draft order behind the glass already. We can select it again if you like if you don't trust it. But I'll give you the draft order that we got. It's mainly just because you did it. I don't trust you. We did it. Don't put this on. I don't trust David either, but let's go with it. Okay. So, God, only three? Yeah. We only got so much time, man. Unless you what we could do for if you like. I think you got to do four, right? Okay. I'd be two if we don't get to it. Fine by me. We've got to keep it timely. All righty then. Okay, so the draft order is number one. Batting lead off is Rico, followed by two, Evan, three, David, four, me. Mike, you get the double dip at five. I'm okay with this. Okay. I'm all right with this. I think. Watch all movies I like go before I pick. All right, so are we just doing this? Let's do it. Okay. Bat lead off, Rico. And this is good because you are our Siskel and Ebert combined. You are a movienista. It is. And this movie has been playing nonstop for the last two weeks. I give you National Lampoons Christmas Vacaycare. Damn it. Awful. It's a heavy hitter. You know what? That's the Zach Wilson of Christmas movie draft picks. It's, I don't like Chevy Chase. So good, good for you.

2:01.4

You enjoy it.

2:02.0

Oh, come on.

2:02.7

But that movie has so many.

2:06.1

I just wanted the house to collapse upon everyone in that movie.

2:10.6

All right, with the second overall pick.

2:13.0

Oh, that is me.

2:14.0

All right.

2:14.6

I thought Rico was going to steal this because of the man that he is.

2:18.4

And it is.

2:19.6

Batman returns.

2:21.3

He's a comic book fan.

2:22.5

Oh, okay.
