"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

As the only daughter of a football coach-pretty easily. Often it only takes a glance from a player to get to "Stop dating my daughter!" usually with the word punk thrown in.

The S60 NO thing didn't really seem out of date to me. I know some musicians who were dispersed here and in NY who are looking for work and sleeping on couches. Some have taken jobs working in clubs as bartenders, waitresses and bussboys to stay in the scene. So yeah, I teared up.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Not the subplot (of the homeless musicians) so much, but if this week's SNL had an elegy to New Orleans? It would be awkward.

But I thought he already had his tacit approval. I suppose the promo is doing its job since now I'm all what could Matt have possibly done to get that reaction? Tune in next week!

ETA: Also, loved Landry this episode. Members Only!?!

I dunno. I'm kind of in favor of reminding people that there are still displaced people whenever the opportunity presents itself. It may also seem not so out of place to me since our org just helped people who'd lost FEMA benefits get them back.

megan, could be anything from him overhearing other players talk about girls. Having any sort of "evidence" that Matt's thinking about sex (including looking at linoleum).

I did love his "I talk to my daughter a lot" tonight.

FNL: I loved this episode -- so much Landry and Matt - and that sad first date. And they actually made me like Buddy Garrity. I didn't think that was possible. And more Smash backstory.

It now occurs to me that it is probably a good thing my dad gave up coaching football before I arrived at my prep school. Although, from what I learned later, the fact that he had the power to assign people to breakfast dish crew also served as quite the deterrent!

Oh, and did Landry tell Coach Taylor that his name is "Landrew" ?

Sumi, I know! The two characters I didn't really like before tonight were Buddy and Landry. I still don't love Smash, but now that he is getting more development maybe that will change.
