‘Parks and Recreation’ made a subtle Bill Belichick joke
For the record, I love the television show “Parks and Recreation.”
This is the final season of the comedy (and it’s set in the future), but it hasn’t stopped throwing jokes into unsuspecting places.
For example, in Tuesday’s episode there was a shot of a futuristic “Gryzzl” tablet that announced this news:

Too many Patriots controversies to keep track of, right?
Anyway, earlier this season was this law firm (that should make sabermetricians chuckle):
