BEFORE THIS GOES TOO FAR INTO THE RECESSES OF THE PAST.
The Fast and the Furious movies are a goldmine for college football metaphor.
OKAY FINE YOU GO TO SLEEP AND SUDDENLY THE BIG 12 IS STILL ALIVE. [BLANKET STATEMENT ABOUT HOW TIRESOME EXPANSION IS] We went to sleep and woke up to find the Big 12 was still nominally alive, and that the Pac-12 was just cool not inviting Texas aboard because that's how you end up with Deloss Dodds wearing the captain hat while you scrub the decks, and that's just not the kind of ship Larry Scott wants to run.

ETC: Progressive Boink has a head-on collision with Glee, and there are no survivors. Drew discovers the joy of post-30 hangovers, and contributes to our belief that a lot of potential alcoholics opt out of practice due to the inability to cope with the pain of the next morning.
