Cultural References
- The name and the plot of this episode are a reference to the ESPN documentary series 30 for 30.
- Anger Watkins is based off of Stephen A. Smith, currently one of the hosts of ESPN's First Take. Stephen A. Smith is known for being provocative and has a history of making controversial remarks on the air; in 2014, he was suspended by ESPN for his comments regarding domestic violence following the incident where ex-NFL football player Ray Rice punched Janay Palmer, Rice's then-fianceé, in a casino elevator.
- The scene where Homer is putting the towel in his mouth during the basketball game is a reference to former men's college basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian, who chewed on moist towels during games to prevent his mouth from drying out.
