Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 10, 2013

I can’t tell if he’s wearing his baseball mitt in P3 or if it’s just another one of this strip’s freakishly large hand drawings. Nice outfit Kaz.

Kaz, is not listening…..pocket billiards!Mimi

When are we gonna see Gil get canned? I see in the Kankakee paper Milford has a new football coach.

Kaz is wearing his Pete Townshend jumpsuit circa Woodstock.

bronyaur: You’re on the right track. I was thinking 1 piece jumpsuit that Al Davis wore. Gil should have the boys settle it the old fashioned way. Take ’em to the gym and employ the Marquess of Queensberry rules.

Coach and Kaz burst into action!

Oh my God. According to Knox’s shirt, he belongs to the FLG (Future Lawyers Group).

Not a bad story line so far. But WHY can’t we just have a normal story line that focuses on the elements of athletics and academics at the high school level—without something madcap like a magical peacock or a kid attorney? I think Rubin should do that about one out of every three story lines.

Kaz: “Don’t bother me when I’m channeling Fabio, kid.”

My guess is Gil will expose our “slip and fall” victim as a con.

What I wish his reply was in P1 -

“Hey Knox, go ’eff yourself.”

Hey, at least Kaz’s “gig” line is reasonably straight.

P1 – a rather flamboyant entrance by Knox.P2 – a surprise cameo appearance by Gil!P3 – is Kaz wearing a one piece suit? Looks like it has a zipper running from his neck to his crotch.
