Cute story overall and I generally enjoyed the flow of it. The sports part was not as big as I anticipated, so it's certainly no 2F05 or 5F03, but it was well
done. Also enjoyed the orange slice runner, Homer's higher level of competence and fun snarkiness, the Neutrino name joke, etc. That's not surprising, once again, for a Selman episode (neither is its higher length, 3 act structure, etc.).
DYN:
...Kirk's broken hand/wrist seems to be inconsistent (it looks like left when he breaks it, right later on, and left at the end)?
...the XPOsition AM radio station has a logo depicting "laying pipe"?
...the strip club has a "pole tax" (poll tax)?
Previous episode stuff
SABF10: a Strupo poster in the hotel room (that was also a Selman ep)
Kevin Curran
This longtime writer of the show died about 2 weeks ago, and predictably, especially since this is the next episode (new or old) broadcast since, there is a short dedication between the bulk of the end credits and the Gracie logo: a toonish fullscreen depiction of him, and the caption "IN LOVING MEMORY OF KEVIN CURRAN". Don't expect that to remain for any other airings, but keep your
eyes open anyway.
