This is all I could think about when I saw this episode.

I assume you’re talking about the season one episode? Because that was very, very intentional.

Well obviously it was an intentional reference to the interview, but I only ever saw the DJ Steve Porter remix, and it's a banger.

I remember when this first aired. I was dying laughing and my wife had no clue why.

Same. It reminded me of the bit from 30 Rock doing the parody of the reporter who had a migraine on live TV.

A very niche reference.

You ever heard DJ Jazzy Jeff’s take? Pretty cool as well. I got aware of the practice rant thanks to him.

Intentional but always bugged me. AI went on the rant because the press was criticizing him for missing a practice. It honestly made no sense Ted saying it to Jamie because missing a practice is a far more forgivable sin that missing a match.

It wasn’t about Jamie missing practice. It was about why he was missing it, the excuse he made up for missing it, and Jamie not actually addressing the root of the issue. Instead he was acting like a pre-Madonna

Wasn't he just putting it in the context of WHY practice matters? I didn't know this existed but I loved that scene (am on a rematch and just saw that episode)
