AZ as first pick will be talked about for decades. i'm floored
It’s not #1 out of 50. It’s #1 because the rest of the Southwest sucks. He didn’t draft a QB first. He drafted JJ Watt. You get it?
@@pigs6486 but it’s still not even number one out of the four ya stooge. Ya either grab the lone star or hold on to your pick for last. AZ is just NM with a big ole hole in it and less crack
@@huntercollins6463 both Arizona and Texas have to go in the first round with the structure. Pick is fine
@@sw1tch37 agree
AZ has only one reason to go there, spring training.
Jimmy: “Michigan is all coastline, people like to live on the coast”
Jimmy 2 minutes ago: How could you pick Florida?”
😂😂😂😂😂
It's only coastline if you're freezing your nuts off. 🤔
Florida has coastline but it comes with a ton of baggage
Michigan has FRESHWATER coastline, Florida doesn't. Many other reasons too
"Florida" I could never live in, ugh. But, Miami is the hottest spot in North America right now. So, "Florida".
I love how seriously they take this and how arbitrary it is at the same time.
Reminds me of high school lunches. Everyday. We were mostly all friends but the stupid things we would discuss were absurd.
That sums up basically all mens hobbies and interests xD
It's almost as if it's a farce or something...
U have PA and Mass in the northeast why would u pick Maryland
@@jayson7136 Chesapeake Bay blue crab
Jake: "NY and CA have high taxes tho"
Also Jake: "I choose Illinois"
Illinois aint bad at all compared to NY and CA
Illinois has a 4.95% flat income tax
@@Njrocks00 Illinois has a tax burden of approximately 11.1%. California has a tax burden of 11.5%. They are more closely ranked than you might think.
taxfoundation.org/publications/state-local-tax-burden-rankings/
Also Hawaii, the cost of living there is absurd because of the cost to got stuff there.
🤣🤣🤣 yeah idk what Illinois government is thinking. Why put such a high price on miles and miles of corn fields?😂
They didn't pick my home state, obviously that means they're trying to insult me personally
Wym bro they picked Maryland...
@@MrGahbage1 >Maryland.
Bruh
@@Enthos2 TBT, I wouldn't pick my Maryland either. I live in Baltimore BTW
Jake: AZ, IL, FL, MD, HI
BBD: TX, CO, GA, WI, PA
Jomboy: NY, CA, MI, NC, OK
Bro I posted this like two days after the video went up. How has this still gotten so much attention.
Jomboy wins in my opinion
Thank you for doing this!
Bruh. AR is Arkansas. AZ is Arizona.
@@Cbmcmo oh my bad I’m just dumb I guess
Wow they picked WI, IL, and MI over MN. They have no idea what they're talking about.
This seems like a deliberate attempt to make everybody angry.
Arizona is pumped
illinois, but really chicago here. im surprised at how early we were taken, honestly
@@ZeCockOfTheWalk chi-town sports are S tier
@@ZeCockOfTheWalk right, Illinois is hot garbage, and I live there🤣
@@yungtittyboy60 Chi-town gun crime is also S-tier
I would have tweaked this format a bit and added a “flex” spot from any region for a total of 6 states per team. That would have added a whole other level of strategy.
Would love to see a household appliance draft. Everything from TVs to Washer/Dryer, Vacuum, Dustbuster, Blender. Really anything you plug in in your house. Would be even better if there was no fixed list of what could be drafted so you could even argue eligibility.
Than they have to live with only those appliances for a day, until Jake tries to argue for the toilet and lights
YOU SIR,,,, ARE A GENIUS!
You definitely have to go with the Refrigerator as #1.
"With the first pick, I'll take Allen Iverson" - Charles Barkley
Underrated comment
Your a stud
Such a good comment 😂
"Snow fishing" never once in my life have I heard ice fishing be called that, that being said it'll probably be my go to from now on it's hillarious
I’m thinking about taking my kids down to the ol’ rink for some snow skating.
😂😂😂
Well if it's cold enough to be snowing but not cold enough for the lake to freeze over properly then that's snow fishing!!
Lots of hypothermia cases in snow fishing. Hard to stay on top of the water. Dangerous sport
They got these newfangled thing called boats
South Carolina is not even close to NC. Saying Myrtle Beach is a good beach is a TRASH take
came to the comments to say the same thing. Myrtle Beach does not compare to the Outer Banks. NC outclasses SC in basically every aspect.
Myrtle Beach is a tourist trap, and the roads in South Carolina suck ass.
Myrtle Beach area = 60 miles of beach.......OBX = Near 200 miles of beach. They really aren't even close enough to compare. NC spanks SC in every region easily. Granted I live in Kitty Hawk so I'm slightly biased, but I lived in Charleston and visited Hilton Head quite a lot when I was younger. NC > SC without doubt.
North Myrtle Beach is good though.
Downtown Myrtle Beach hasn't been good in like 20 years.
I was gonna, I've never even been to Myrtle beach but I can tell by the people who go there and the way they talk about it its pretty trash. I think the mountain/beach/culture combo in NC is only rivaled by California.
Jomboy, Jake AND BBD draft the states
Show my man BBD some respect, he brings a lot to this pod
you're goddamn right
BBD is the man
on god
BBD killed it
The average person doesn’t kno him. I had no idea who he was until I clicked this video. U right tho, doesn’t hurt to put his name in the title.
As an Arizona fan, I'm proud of my state going 1st overall, but I can't help feeling like this will turn out to be a Greg Oden type situation.
"Go to die somewhere? That's the dream!" Jake's dark core is revealed here...
Jake did pick Arizona and Florida.
NC native here. Wasn't going to comment/brag about NC then you compare it to SC. Jomboy hit it, beach and mountains. I respect SC but not even close, saying Myrtle Beach is better than Wrightsville or Outer Banks is like saying Brent Gretzky is better than Wayne. Jomboy so much respect for the pick and doing your research, hopefully the secret doesn't get out. The Carolinas are the Carolinas, the Gretzkys are the Gretzkys, Jake, I respect the Arizona pick, I was willing to listen but you didn't convince me. Going for the reach with Arizona when the possible GOAT state in Texas is sitting in your lap? Identical to taking Jamarcus Russell to be cute when Megatron was right there.
-that being said I am commenting on a youtube video of a state draft, Jomboy this channel is a gem.
I'm floored about the Arizona pick, genuinely. I mean you could go to other regions and get a better pick in the first round than AZ. Texas, NY, Cali were all sat there and I just don't know how you take Arizona over Texas when it was still there.
yo big facts fellow nc native here
Myrtle isn't even our best beach and I wish people not from the Carolinas understood that. Sullivans Island, Folley, and Kiawah are all way better and I think can hold a flame to OBX. I'll say at least one thing SC has over NC is you can actually drive from one end of our state to the other in one day without hating life. Also mustard bbq > vinegar.
@@evancowles7101 Mustard bbq > vinegar..... Oh them's is fightin words
Agreed, I lived in SC for a bit and was super jealous of NC. Asheville is awesome.
as someone who grew up in Oklahoma it's still hard to keep a straight face while jimmy tries to hype it up
I live here too. New Mexico is definitely better than Ok
@@Steveofthejungle8 nah we are way better than new mexico
@@lukepuffinbarger5022 New Mexico has mountains and desert and caves, great food, and cool art and culture. It wins
90% of things are better than New Mexico
@@Steveofthejungle8 New Mexico is the safe pick, OK has higher upside. And everything New Mexico is doing is already being done by Cali. OK was the right pick for Jimmy.
I love how they try to portray the beauty of every state they selected, then only mention Alaska's alcoholism haha
Too much PA slander and Jomboy picking OK over NM is a joke. Clearly never seen the beauty of NM, thanks Jake for backing it up
NM beats most the states on food alone.
@@chadbogner4621 Amen, haters never had Hatch chile
And the Oregon slander was pretty terrible too
Being from NM I can tell you the that the education is awful but the food and scenery beat that in my opinion
PA is the worst state in the country
Jimmy drafted like how I'd imagine a Canadian would draft
This Virginia slander is a personal insult. We have beaches, fishing on the Chesapeake, hiking in the Shenandoah and Blue Ridge, some prime golfing on the peninsulas, and collegiate sports (professional if you want to include the DC teams which a lot of people here follow). The weather can get cold in the winter but its nothing worse you'd get in Maryland or Delaware.
A friend of mine told me it is the virgin capital of America as well. I am down for that.
@@JesusVelociraptor went to high school there, can confirm im still a virgin to this day
@@galebh9715 Damn. My hopes and dreams are now demolished. Grains of dust. The wind will carry my sorrows. RIP Ma and Pa. RIP.
Yea man. The DMV is an awesome place to grow up.
right? like everyone talks abt maryland for the bay, but most of the bay is in VA. We got a bit of everything here.
Jimmy defending Michigan with no one agreeing with him on either point is hilarious.
Jimmy: "Massachusetts, a lot of history" meanwhile goes on to shit on Pennsylvania... what?
PA is a garbage place
I felt like PA didn’t nearly deserve the bagging it got. It’s a very respectable 5th round NE pick
and Virginia
The fact Massachusetts wasn’t picked is almost criminal though... beyond history, it’s also the best college destination in the US, with MIT and Harvard alone putting it at the top. Arguably the best startup/tech culture as well in addition to California.
PA is for sure 2nd in the northeast behind NY the other states are just too small to compare
I'm a little disappointed they didn't talk about how their whole team balances out. You don't want to end up too heavy in any attribute and too weak in others. They should have shown how the whole team works together.
I was thinking whether they were undervaluing agriculture or natural resources. In that way Alaska could have been a big contender in the west based on oil alone. And same with Kansas.
FELLAS, I have IDEAS 💡:
Animal Drafts. species draft, could do a predators draft, prey draft, animals as food draft, sky animals draft, fresh water draft, salt water draft, bug draft.
Colors draft. Crayola colors draft.
Fast food restaurants draft.
TV show draft. Movie draft. Video game draft.
Beverage draft. Food draft.
Candy draft. Ice cream flavor draft. Chips draft. Snack draft.
Number draft. Double digits only. Single digits only.
Holidays draft.
Historical figures draft.
World countries draft. Planet draft.
Fictional characters draft.
Cartoon characters draft.
The WORLD is literally yours to draft!
We need to know your thoughts on all of this.
Movie draft would be such a good idea
"sky animals" hahahahahahahahaha
omg I'm laughing so hard I'm crying
I'll never be able to look at birds again without thinking this
Jomboy is the only one who knows about Michigan. Let the secret live on.
Michigan stinks don’t lie to yourself
@@petermoore7796 thats what floridans want too btw
As long as people keep thinking michigan sucks, I'm okay with that
How old is Jake? I think he was picking best states for retirees.
Lived Maui, been to Chicago a couple of times, live in Miami. Can confirm that's not what he was doing at all.
@@nashbruce4196 Lived in TX, VA, MD, PR, FL, CA, MS, OK, PA, been to many different cities on vacation throughout my life, live in NJ. I don't understand what your response means.
Again, living in Miami(in these crazy times), and having lived on Maui(HI), and having been to Chicago for a couple of times....Jake was not picking "best states for retirees". Maybe if one is reading some book from 2000 it would seem that way, idk.
He’s basically an old Conservative lol
Jake is 60 and also 19 at the same time.
Jomboy easily won this draft no question
Pennsylvania being slept on by Jimmy and Jake. Great value pick there by BBD
Stop PA is god awful
For sure. Philly's overrated but Pittsburgh is nice.
Agreed. The American history value alone makes it a Brady-esque late round pick.
@@noahboughdy2648 Philly is not overrated in the slightest. Eagles fans are the worst but the city is actually beautiful.
New Jersey >>>
Louisiana has so much culture, surprised to see it go undrafted.
If LA was considered SW instead of SE, we definitely would have seen it get picked although I am surprised it didn't get taken anyway. South East was pretty loaded though on the top end. Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Louisiana I think would have all been good picks.
@@mattnorris7124 Florida is a garbage pick. Louisiana, Georgia, NC, Tennessee are the top four by a mile.
@@drewalvarez8461 I mean I guess what it is you're looking for. Population seemed to play a decent part in most of these selections and Florida is the 3rd most populous state with the 7th highest growth rate in the 2010s. Weather is nice year round, beaches are nice, no state income tax, a massive amount of cultural mixing and latino culture, especially in South Florida. Closest state to the Caribbean which makes flights there cheaper.
Plus sports, holy hell do you have options for sports. You've got the Bucs, Jags, Dolphins, Canes, Noles, Gators, UCF, South Florida, FIU, Heat, Orlando & Lakeland Magic, Lightning, Panthers, Rays, Marlins, Orlando City, Orlando Pride, Inter Miami, 12 minor league baseball teams & 20 minor league soccer teams. Florida's also known as a hot spot for top level high school football talent (as of February last year they had the most blue chip recruits in that college recruiting class) and have are in the Top 5 for producing the most 5 star recruits in the last 5 years for college basketball. Being that this is primarily a sports channel, I figure sports would play into it a lot.
North Carolina and Louisiana are miles better than Florida.
@@drewalvarez8461 agreed. It's obvious he hasn't traveled through that shit state
Jimmy taking Michigan as his #1 in the midwest made my day
Such an underrated state
Same here! Definitely the best in the Midwest.
Best state around. People judge it off Detroit and Flint, not realizing it is amazing outside of those cities.
@Blake Siegle (Student) Minnesota is not more scenic lmao and you've clearly never been to Michigan lakes, Torch Lake is known as a Caribbean lake for a reason
@Blake Siegle (Student) Tahquamenon Falls in Michigan is the second most voluminous waterfall east of the Mississippi behind Niagara. Give it up, kid.
Haven’t seen anyone else do this, so: (picks in draft order)
Jake:
-Southwest: Arizona
-Midwest: Illinois
-Southeast: Florida
-Northeast: Maryland
-West: Hawaii
BBD:
-Southwest: Texas
-West: Colorado
-Southeast: Georgia
-Midwest: Wisconsin
-Northeast: Pennsylvania
Jimmy:
-Northeast: New York
-West: California
-Midwest: Michigan
-Southeast: North Carolina
-Southwest: Oklahoma
BBD absolutely smashed this draft.
Bbd sucked. He took wisconsin when jake had to take a Northeast. Even if he valued Pennsuylvania over maryland he has to take Penn 4th
@@aro327 I think they might have been joking, u just went sicko mode
@@aro327 They Wisconsin was a ok pick other than that he is good
This comment section is proof that these drafts are supremely excellent ideas. And this one in particular. You get the whole Jomboy Media fan base across the country either validating or shitting on their picks. Don't ever stop.
BBD coming in with the underrated team. I think he had the best game
The misunderstanding of the Midwest picks is mind-boggling. Wisconsin being land-locked? What? Wild oversell of Minnesota and Michigan. The Dells aren’t in the top 50 list of Wisconsin destinations.
Minnesota > Wisconsin
Jake has PA all wrong. He missed out big there
As soon as they started talking about the Midwest I was like “no way Jomboy doesn’t pick Michigan” I have no idea why I felt so strongly
Arizona is the Kwame Brown of this draft.
Allen Iverson! - Charles Barkley
@@octopus8420 underappreciated comment
I get the logic but if you are going that region first you gotta go Texas
I’d say this is more like DeAndre Ayton going #1 in 2018. It’s a really good pick but later picks will shine brighter.
Jomboy: Everyone's a little jealous at how much Texans love themselves.
Me, a Texan: "Who's the man? Me, that's who. Wait what did he just say?"
Shoutout to Jake for shouting out the Upper Peninsula
Da Yoop!
Totally. Have been through there in July. ❤
I seem to be in the extreme minority on this but Jake won this draft.
I mean, Jimmy won it taking NY and CA first and second round but Oklahoma has got to be the worst pick in the draft
Tbf, his 3rd & 4th picks were strong too. Michigan & North Carolina were both great picks, Oklahoma was the only pick that was weak and the only state I think he should have considered taking instead of one of his others was Louisiana over NC but I totally get the NC pick. I think AZ at 1, value wise is the worst pick in the draft but Oklahoma was definitely the worst state that was drafted but that just comes down to region limits. Also thought that Jake taking Maryland over PA or MA in the North East was kinda wild.
Hush boy
Little bias here but I think Missouri is a sleeper pick in the Midwest that would have had a lot more value. Literally every major sports team in the state has won at least 1 championship in the last decade.
True dat
Thank you! I couldn’t believe no one took Missouri
IL, MN, and MO could easily be top three
Y’all are crazy. It only has Saint Louis and Kansas City. The ozarks suck and have you seen the obscene amount of ridiculous anti-abortion billboards on the highways? Let’s not forget all the racial tension between the African American community and the police. Not even close to top 5.
@@dudee145 You sound like you’re from Columbia...
damn missouri getting no love 😭 kc has the chiefs and royals, multiple championships in the past 7 years... stl has the cardinals, always a favorite in the nl, its the middle of the us so its never too far anywhere, not only 2 of the biggest cities in the country but also great rural areas... best bbq in the world, VERY low cost of living... cant even get a single shoutout 🤦♂️😭
Jimmy clearly hasn’t seen Breaking Bad talking shit about New Mexico’s scenery
“You should’ve seen what I was passing out on the subway” 😂 Jake
“I had Maine above Massachusetts”. Jake officially doesn’t suck.
maine is the worst state in the United States
@@maxschaeffer7228 Wyoming
Maine lowkey one of the best states in the US
@@hanginplant11 Wyoming has Yellowstone. Ohio could never compete.
@@hanginplant11 What’s this “Wyoming” you speak of?
Seeing Maryland love was unexpected but much appreciated
How is anyone going to justify WI without mentioning beer??
Plus the Cheese Curds
I’d argue that the best vacation spot is door county, NOT Wisconsin dells
@@noahbecker4405 I don't know why Jimmy was so fixed on the Dells
@@noahbecker4405 living close to the Dells you learn to dislike it due to the tourist.
@@noahbecker4405 Dells is not good lol
NC is so underrated. Great pick Jomboy!!
Eh, it is what it is. I think Tennessee was the clear pick over NC but it’s all opinionated
BBD absolutely crushed this - getting gifted Texas definitely helps but Wisconsin/Pennsylvania/Georgia is such a good core
Yeah Texas obviously the monster steal there and I think he got too much flak for the PA pick.
I think the thing with BBD's picks are that there weren't any real weak picks and Texas falling in his lap was a god send to add to a very good consistent core of states. PA is a super underrated pick as well I feel, especially in the 5th round while Jake's out here blowing his loud on Arizona at 1 and taking Maryland over other NE states like PA & Massachusetts and I feel like his Hawai'i wasn't as good a pick as was made out when he could have taken Washington or Oregon, he already had a holiday state.
Did that guy really just say that myrtle beach is a better beach than any beaches in NC? Lmao the outer banks are much better.
I'm from SC, and even I know MB is a shit beach. NC is clearly a better overall state than SC, but it's close.
Yeah fr there is more partying in Myrtle but I think the outer banks are some of the best beaches in the US
Myrtle Beach not even top 10 beaches in SC.
Was it the same guy that said the murder capitol of the US was a "great american city"? Cause if so...makes sense.
Hilton Head is best
New Mexico is gorgeous. You're nuts! It's a poor man's Arizona, sure, but I'm a poor man.
If NM is a poor man's AZ, then I don't want to be rich.
I've been to the grand canyon and hiked the mountains in New Mexico. NM was better. And the food, to die for.
Albuquerque is sneaky nice. Like, keep your head on a swivel, but it’s nice
@@logan_nowicki XD
Arizona is a poor mans NM.
Maryland and Hawaii were both some great late round value
I think Louisiana was a snub too. New Orleans is one of the greatest American cities. Culture, food, and sports are all A+
Jimmy for sure should have picked it over NC
Agree... but it does smell though.
too much heat and crime
Jimmy’s first 3 picks are absolutely incredible. Powerhouses NY and CA with MI being the most diverse geographically in the Midwest. Fantastic draft for Jomboy
Couldn't agree more. He could have thrown his last two picks and still won it...
I'm lost whats this all for?
I feel like Jake took Arizona first because he knew all of the Texans would be in here driving up the interaction if he did
Holy fuck, Jake meta-gamed everybody
"Chicago is one of the best states"....we forgive you
I gotta give it to Jimmy for the California New York absolute power duo. Personally I would’ve went with New Mexico over Oklahoma but snagging a Carolina was huge and Michigan, the home state for me, was a steal. I understand it going after Illinois the Chicago factor is fairly large but Jake calling the mitten a reach is just mind boggling. The nicest part of Wisconsin is our upper peninsula, and Minnesota wishes they were hockey town. Ohio I thought was a huge snub, Washington was a surprise, Oregon a snub, Massachusetts huge snug by BBD. I’m not as low on PA as Jimmy and Jake but when Jake went Maryland I was convinced Mass was going BBDs way which would’ve made this a lot more close
VA honestly would’ve been a sleeper pick…..you’ve got a very populated area of the Hampton Roads with Norfolk, VA Beach, and Chesapeake where you have cities, suburbs, and solid beaches. You have the DC area up north and then out west you have beautiful mountain ranges for hiking and camping…..overall a pretty dynamic place.
And with picking Michigan as his #1 in the midwest, Jomboy has cemented himself as my 1st overall pick for sports commentators.
PA and MI are fantastic states. Y’all are out of touch.
I have a feeling these dudes regularly get together to play Risk.
Great video idea, I would like to see more of these. I think though a draft board would be nice to keep track of the picks.
The shit talking between friends here is hilarious
Jake and BBO all were laughing about Jomboy for picking Michigan and Jake said only the upper peninsula is good when the mitten is the best part.
I think in order to do this fully you have to draft all 50 but keep the regions and every 5 picks or 6 if you add another region which you should just reset and pick through the regions again but yeah you have to pick all the state I would love to see the arguments about the Dakotas and Wyoming and Montana.
I can understand picking Michigan #1 in the Midwest. Once you get past the Detroit thing, it’s a beautiful state. How anyone can pick Wisconsin over Minnesota though, is beyond me.
Milwaukee is a SEVERELY underrated city.
Trash city, its frozen for 5 months. Get outta here.
"snow fishing" as a Wisconsin native, I'm disgusted lol. Also, Illinois as the first Midwest state picked, that's a disgrace. No one likes Illinois, even most people from Illinois.
Duh Missouri is the best of them all in the Mid-West. We have ALL the lakes. Ozark, Truman, Table Rock, Smithville.
Cheap cost of living
LOTS of sports.
@@andrewboyce7268 St. Louis
Pennsylvania-Highly underrated. Urban and rural. Nice mountains. Get all the seasons. Great sports cities in Philly and Pittsburg. Right near NY and the beaches along the Coast.
Philly's great if you like being dead
People hate on Philly but it's a great city with all 4 major sports teams and tons of history. Pittsburgh is an underrated city as well, and the surrounding scenery in the western part of the state is beautiful. I'd say PA is a solid pick, not spectacular but it gets the job done
“Oregon is just poor Washington” as an Oregonian, yes.
But we have the tweaker army 😈
This
Colorado and Utah should be in the Southwest. The Southwest is too small, and the West is too strong. This would solve both those problems
I feel like Kansas probably should have been as well but I think by including those states in the South West, Jomboy would win the draft by default simply by having a better state than Oklahoma as his worst state.
Definitely one or the other
@@mattnorris7124 Jomboy could’ve picked NM. NM is miles better then OK. Him picking OK over NM tanked his draft in my view.
BBD taking Georgia and Wisconsin. That is a sneaky good draft. You get all the beauty of the Midwest, that Lake Michigan coast and you get Georgia being the pearl of the south. BBD also taking Texas gives him a solid lineup. I can't help but feel that Jimmy and Jake got schooled.
I grew up my whole life in Illinois and we people (not from Chicago) wanted Chicago to be it's own thing!
I'm also living in Michigan now and there is way more state pride here, and it's a lot more beautiful than most realize!
To sum it up: I felt like the mid-west was unjustly dumped on... then I remembered what this is :'D
If chicago was its own thing officially (cause it is already) the rest of IL is basically OH.
@@jimb3293 If Chicago was its own thing, the rest of IL is freakin Iowa
@@danielmoore8695 same thing
As a down state Illinois resident, I'd be totally fine with being something like Indiana. Chicago values are not ours.
man, Utah getting the snub is surprisinig to me. its got the most variety (minus the coast) for outdoors activities! Best snow in the country, deserts, rivers, lakes, mountains. come on now.
They still be sleeping on us.
I live in Colorado and visit family in SLC. People sleep on Utah, SLC is like a mirror of Denver with less tourists. I love it out there
I maintain that New Mexico has even better snow, because there's less of it than in Utah and when it cloaks the Sandia mountains it's the most gorgeous snow I've ever seen.
Mormons are just overly nice. It’s creepy af I wouldn’t want to live around a bunch of Mormons and plus I wouldn’t be able to drink in Utah (I don’t even drink much but the occasional drink would be nice).
@@gregmccauley1687 I've heard that the skiing in Utah is amazing but I live an hour drive from Breck and A basin so I've never had a good enough reason to go
As an arizonan I absolutely love that #1 pick!!!!!!!!!!! Who says that jake sucks
Wisconsin actually goated pick that late
When the zombie apocalypse goes down ands utilities shut off, i have a LOT of fresh water sources in michigan. Good luck Arizona, just saying
what about flint
@@brettmcgraw9468 hot take- big johns steak and onion is worth the voyage to flint regardless of the possible lead consumption
Charles Barone i could agree with that
You don't need zombies to think of a bad scenario here. The lack of consideration regarding climate change had me stressin out. Jake's toast having to hold onto Florida and Hawaii and Jimmy is going to have NY and CA fleeing to the fresh water of Michigan as the oceans keep creeping up the coastline and the wildfire season keeps ramping up.
@@SPMyers92 Oh 100%, and to be honest the back of brain has the exact scenario. I first wrote something doomadsayish but i felt it was too real in a sense-this is a YT video i think we all should be here to escape our troubles- so i went with a cause thats really out there but the sentiment is the same, when/if shit hits the fan i dont need to drink my cats blood for water thank the lord
I love how New Jersey was not mentioned once in this draft
NJ gets a lot of negative attention, and it's the most over-crowded state, but they also have 6 Flags Great Adventure, which is the best 6 Flags in existence, and is the 2nd best theme park in the country, next to Cedar Point.
I'm from NJ but I kinda get it. Everyone thinks we're just NYC's suburbs lol. I like our state tho
Jomboy port huron is not a destination. Thats like going to sarnia for vacation
He should have mentioned Mackinac Island instead.
@@ethanh6370 He did though
Having been there it had me dying lmaoo
@@cameronmurdock7760 used to go to Port Huron every week for work. I loved the drive to get there but yeah there's nothing there lol
Damn! Arizona as a #1 is actually REAL good but I have Utah as my #1
The fact that Montana was so slept on is insane.
Fr Montana has longmire.
It’s stacked Western region. Definitely not top three.
The west is a bit stacked with California, Colorado, Hawaii (if you don’t mind the travel issues) and Washington.
@@dylanf3108 they didn’t even talk about my state Nevada 😂
Dude said the dells is Wisconsin biggest vacation spot. First off it's more like door county, lake Geneva, Devil's Lake and the bluffs in la crosse. Dude never even seen Wisconsin. He is acting like a FIB bc they only go to the dells.
thanks for repping lg
Real Rankings for the SW: Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma
Ya hurt me boys...Ya hurt me.
Born in Texas lived there 28 years lived in AZ for 10... AZ is a massive upgrade.
BBD by a MILE
the mackinac island shoutout is the winner of the draft
Oklahoma over New Mexico is an atrocious pick. You give up a lot on the sports side of things, but gain in national parks, tremendous food and a diverse culture. It’s not close
NO WHERE close
My family gies back and forth between Ok and NM and OK is so much better than NM. NM is so much more boring and there is so much less to do
Right, but a lot of folks don't really care for the diverse culture.
@@Winspur1982 idk I just went to nyc and i thought the diversity was pretty cool
@@krspy8849 That's cool, I was referring to Rick Santorum kinds of white people.
Great job making NC you’re #1 in the SE region. You can surf and snowboard in the same day; NC is like California light.
Florida is a melting pot, nearly every type of person lives here in chaotic harmony.
Best things about Florida: the beauty of its natural spaces plus mild winters. Worst things: the areas overrun with condos and tourist traps.
Miami is off the chart right now.
@@dougfromsoanierana Also to add to worst things: volatile weather, especially during summer
@@mattnorris7124 it's really not that volatile, it's gonna be very hot and very humid every day no matter where you go. Rain is the only wildcard, but its less likely to happen in the Summer than in the Spring/Fall.
love the rep of michigan , thought we were the clear obvious choice for the midwest
As an Ohio native I feel like our state is slept on we have 2 pro baseball, football and soccer teams and also a pro basketball team and Ohio state for college sports. We also have the Columbus zoo the biggest zoo in the United states and the 2nd largest amusement park in world Cedar Point.
As a fellow Ohio native I don’t see it finishing in the top 15, but it deserves way better than bottom 15.
Ohio is my number one in the Midwest. I know that’s crazy because everyone sagas it’s boring but it’s not they have the best amusement park in Cedar point, the pro football hall of fame, an amazing CFB team as well as another that’s really good at the moment (Cincinnati), two pro football teams, steak and shake (which the highest quality ones exist in Ohio), and the Cavs.
@@dylanf3108 not to mention SE OHIO is Appalachian beauty
Fun fact. Wisconsin has more lakes than Minnesota by a rather decent amount
fun fact. he’s right. secondary fun fact. michigsn has more coastline.
as long as someone’s finally calling out minnesota’s oh so weird flex
“we have 10,000 lakes” congratulations minnesota you are now one of the 17 states
it’s really all they got though
can someone explain the rules of how they win or they literally just drafting states for the hell of it
Dude I have no idea as well lmao
For the hell of it lol they drafted the alphabet for the same reasons earlier too lol
Picking Arizona over Texas for the 1st overall pick is like picking Ryan Leaf over Peyton Manning
Jake having North Carolina as the third best in the Southeast is an insult.
1. Florida 2. Louisiana 3. NC
Do you think it’s higher or lower
1. Georgia 2. NC 3. Arkansas
definitely louisiana nc virginia
GA, Louisiana, NC or VA (FL honorable mention, not really the south)
West: WA
Southwest: AZ
Midwest: Illinois
Northeast: Vermont
Southeast: Virginia
Also I’m midway through this but the disrespect to Michigan is unreal
For real. Our pro sports are awful but other than that and the D in general it's a beautiful state
@@nathanbilotta1112 no one knows that until they actually visit. And the UP is such an underrated spot too
