Do any of you all have any show you watch every year due to tradition.

For me after my Fantasy Draft I have to watch The League.

It's a great movie, and the best adaptation......I'm a Christmas Carol nerd...we watch several different versions (15 or so)..
including my personal favorites...An American Christmas Carol (with The,Fonz) and the the more modern version with George C. Scott

My favorite AS movie - a war-time thriller, w/ AS as the investigator - super cast, beautiful women...
