So, who on the writing staff is a 49ers fan?  They name checked two football players and both are on the Niners.  Shouldn't they be going for Eagles players?  They're #1 after all.  And btw, McCaffrey has no backup.

To be successful at fantasy football, like Ava, Melissa and Mr. Johnson, you have to pick up players across the league, not just stock up on your own team's players. It's a reason some people don't like playing fantasy football, since it forces you to hope that opposing players on rival teams do well.

I wasn't surprised at how Ava broke up that fight. You can tell she's been in some scrums and knows what she's doing. Janine I'm sure has never been in a physical fight in her life.

Last episode Gregory said that his lack of money was still being an issue in his romantic life, and in this episode his dad mentioned that Gregory could take Amber out for a nice dinner if he went to work with his dad. Interesting that the show is making this a consistent theme. Gregory is obviously not leaving the school, but it feels like the show is setting up for something. We still have that loose end with that rich guy (Barbara's former student) who wants to take over and change the school.
