This is great! Wonderful dialogue, worthy of both Kevin and Danny, and I loved the glimpse of Kevin from when he was younger and Danny when he's...Danny.
That was so...so...it was just good. I don't know what else to say.
I think my favorite was the part about Kevin practicing over and over with his suit jacket in just the right way. I can picture Kevin doing that. He's so serious and snarky and struggling and yet so utterly adorable.
Thank you! Hee, that icon makes me grin every time I see it.
SportsNight is probably worth renting if you feel like adding on to your to-watch queue; it has good points (Danny!) and downsides (Aaron Sorkin's issues!), but overall it washes out to a win. Every time I watch it the Issues grate on me a little more, but a first-viewing would still be love. (Daaaaaaaaaaaaanny!)

Absolutely terrific dialogue between these two.
I proudly represent Dartmouth and thus the Ivy League, a little thing you might have heard of but apparently couldn’t get admitted to.”
. . .and then Kevin complimenting him on sentence structure, and Dan pointing out that he's a writer. This is so terrific, yay, you.

I kept getting stuck on how impossibly cute young!Kevin must have been. Makes it hard to write, hee.

And great job tying this into the Chad storyline.
