Abed Nadir : Will they or won't they? Sexual tension.
Jeff Winger : Abed, it makes the group uncomfortable when you talk about us like we're characters in a show you're watching.
Abed Nadir : Well, that's sort of my gimmick. But we did lean on it pretty hard last week. I can lay low for an episode.

Jeff Winger : You're just as selfish as I am - you're just not as good at it yet.

Jeff Winger : This decision has to be yours, T-Bone. And this decision has to be yes.

Pierce Hawthorne : I think if we add in a little Phylicia Rashad, we'll be in better shape.
Dean Pelton : Yeah, you're right. That beige is a little light.
Jeff Winger : Um... Wow.
Dean Pelton : Yeah. Yeah. We are developing the perfect mascot. No stereotypical identifiers from any race or gender.
Pierce Hawthorne : You see, Jeff, this is a chart of the features we're staying away from: Pan-Asian eye folds, uh, Irish chins, women's breasts.
Jeff Winger : Is that Seal?
Dean Pelton : Oh, that is our human color wheel. It goes from Seal to Seal's teeth.
Pierce Hawthorne : What do you think?
Jeff Winger : I think not being racist is the new racism.

Dean Pelton : [blackmailing Jeff] Oh! Goodness. Look what we've stumbled on to, an opportunity to help each other out. I suppose I wouldn't need this promotional campaign if I could announce to the press that Troy Barnes is playing football here.
Jeff Winger : I think he's been pretty clear about declining that offer.
Dean Pelton : I think if you said "Jump", he'd say "How high?". If you said "Stop", he'd say "Hammer time!".

Troy : Is that linebacker a pregnant woman?
Jeff Winger : Look, you can meet them later!

Jeff Winger : Dean has pictures of me, okay? Horrible pictures of me! Attending his school!
-
Jeff Winger : For instance, after the dean talked to you about football, you and I were thinking the same thing.
Troy : [Face lights up] That dude looks like Moby!
Jeff Winger : We were thinking "What if Troy *did* play for Greendale?". You'd be surprised how many of your favorite football players started at community college.
Troy : Really. Name one.
Jeff Winger : Who's your favorite football player?
Troy : Me.
[Face changes to an astonished look]
Troy : Whoa!

Jeff Winger : Let me tell you. little secret about me Troy. Every day on my way to school, I drive through downtown past the courthouse. Just to get a glimpse of the world I once ruled. And I just want to jump out of my car, run up the steps and... exploit the legal system for profit. But I can't, I'm locked out of my old kingdom. You're not. See what I'm saying?
