Simpsons episodes often make reference to major news stories, and Jim Harbaugh this week did not escape the script writers.
Bart Simpson taught a class on “Intro to Cheating 101” at the Jim Harbaugh Center for Competitive Imbalance.
“Students look to your left, look to your right,” he said, “those are the people you’ll be cheating off of.”
This segment was part of an episode which covered various sports cheating scandals, and it was called “Do The Wrong Thing.” It included Homer and Bart cheating at blue-collar sporting events, from fishing to a rock-skipping championship, which was called by syndicated radio host and former ESPN “SportsCenter” anchor Dan Patrick. And also cornhole, disc golf, and even a “face-slapping championship,” a reference to Dana White’s Power Slap.
It also has Marge fake Lisa’s application to a university summer camp.
