    Favorite Holiday is Thanksgiving. No pressure, no presents. Just sit around and watch football while eating and drinking too much for consecutive days.

    My favorite sports time of the year is first wknd in May. NHL/NBA playoffs, Kentucky Derby, not sick of baseball yet, usually the biggest boxing match of the year, etc.

    No. Independence and Thanksgiving, maaaaybe, but the other two, fuck no.

    Today is the perfect one - nice(ish) weather, post DST, first day of the tournament and if early tipoff isn't enough, there is an excuse to have breakfast beers.

    Memorial Day Friday?! WTF.

    Also, Labor Day/opening Saturday of college football season got too many votes. Way too many Bama fans voting. As a fan of a shitty team, that Saturday signifies the end of my hopes for the season.
