Haha that was the only one I knew that I figured would get drafted, although props to fat homer. Both goat episodes

Taking 22 Short Films About Springfield
There are so many great characters in The Simpsons and most episodes focus on the main dozen with maybe one or two side characters showing up.
But this episode, loosely based on Pulp Fiction (with some nice homage scenes), features a ton of them.
A bunch of short vignettes cleverly transitioned into each other, with the most famous being the awesome Steamed Hams segment with Chalmers and Skinner.
“The house is on fire!”
“No mom, that’s just the Northern Lights”
You’ve got Millhouse saving the day in a Pulp Fiction scene:
After he fails to use the bathroom at the comic book store:
You’ve got a tall thin man getting revenge for everyone on Nelson:
And Apu getting in 4 hours of partying in 4 minutes:
A fun episode that reminds one of all the great side characters and a great addition to my Simpsons DVD

I’m going with season 6’s Treehouse of Horrors V
I think all early season treehouses are good but this one is the best.
The first segment is the classic “Shinning” parody.
So many good parts to this one, “No reading my mind between 4 and 5, that’s Willie’s time!” “Television! Teacher, mother, secret lover” and who hasn’t used “Urge to kill, rising”?
The second segment is hands down one of my favorite pieces of the simpsons:
Homer and his toaster go back in time, with hilarious consequences! A great 1 line cameo from James Earl Jones and a perfect punchline.
The third segment while not as strong is still pretty damn good, with Skinner and the school going cannibal on the kids
“Now to check on the free-range children!”

“In fact, you might say we ate Uter, and he’s in our stomachs right now! Ha-ha… wait, scratch that last one.”
22 Short Films is another classic, although I think all my favorite bits got mentioned already. Oh, wait, “I have a song! Professor Frink, Professor Frink, he’ll make you laugh, he’ll make you think, with the thing, and the, uh, person…”

Its possible I get sniped. Both my picks are very high on my list
“Deep Space Homer” contains maybe my favorite Simpsons joke of all time.
“Gentlemen, I’d like to congratulate you on a job well done. In a way, you’re both winners. In a different, more accurate way, Barney is the winner.”

I just realized we got through this one without bringing up “Talkin’ Softball,” Terry Cashman’s incredible rewrite of his “Talkin’ Baseball.”
Well Mr. Burns had done it
The power plant had won it
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while
Mike Scioscia’s tragic illness made us smile
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the barroom tile
We’re talking softball, from Maine to San Diego
Talking softball, Mattingly and Canseco
Ken Griffey’s grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law
We’re talking Homer, Ozzie and the Straw

I’ll take the cliffhanger that captivated the world.
Who Shot Mr Burns? (Part One)
Superintendent, we made the front page today!
Uh, what’s that say under your hand there?
Hmm? Oh, it’s an unrelated article.
It’s an unrelated article?
Mm hmm.
Within the banner headline?
Yes. Now, to redirect our conversation slightly, I have a few ideas on how to spend this oil money.
Well, we could give each student a full college scholarship. [both burst out laughing]
Oh, mercy. Seriously though…
Dear Lord, that’s the loudest profanity I’ve ever heard!
Have you ever seen the sun set at 3pm?
Aye, once. When I was sailin’ round the Arctic…
Shut up, you!
Well, I couldn’t possibly solve this mystery.
Can you?
Yeah, I’ll give it a shot, I mean, you know, it’s my job, right?

Skinner and Supernintendo Chalmers have some of the best scenes in the show.

Your formatting leaves open the suspense on whether someone will draft [redacted] 
I’m going with "Trash of the Titans"
I will have to do my write up later. I know I have another pick soon so I may do them both this evening.
