Episode Quotes
 
Devin Boland: My mom said she’d die before she’d send me there.
Landry: Literally like in her life?
Devin Boland: Hunger strike probably.
 
Landry: I’m always going to be a Panther in my heart.
Matt: Landry, who cared, the Panthers are just a bunch of idiots this year.
Landry: But they’re talented, fast idiots and we’re just a bunch of sucky idiots.
 
Lorraine Saracen: Landry. Stop throwing the ball, you look like a girl.
Landry: Just one more.
Lorraine Saracen: No. You’re just a funny looking creature.
Landry: She seems to be doing well.
 
 
Cultural References
 
Under Armour was a main sponsor for the season and thus, their brand was to be displayed when possible. Because of this, it is easy to see in some scenes where there are close ups of the new East Dillon Lions, that their jerseys are Nike jerseys, with the "Swoosh" emblem covered up on them with a white patch on the players right side.
