In this allegorical retelling of Cal's move to the MWC, the Vallejo chicks represent the slightly higher success rate achieved in the MWC as opposed to the complete strikeout he had with Marina chicks (P12). Once his unemployment benefits run out, he should be welfare eligible. That lower level of income represents his MWC TV revenues. Again, as opposed to his tech job wages (P12 TV revenue). His prized boat is of course the stand-in for non-revenue sports, the thing he won't give up but which he torches once he moves to MWC-land.

In your version, applying to jobs in Oakland would be equivalent to applying to re-enter the P12 conference. Applying to jobs in Oakland is a good strategy in r/l. Applying to re-enter the P12 after you voluntarily left it has zero chance of success. Not equivalent even in a allegorical sense.
