Oh, this is going to be good. I’ll be watching this one tonight. Of course, I’ve written about Varsity Blues before, such as here. One huge irony for me is that my beloved son was welcome with open arms to Stanford legitimately, and he’s already completely transcended it. Maybe one day I’ll write about it, but not now.
