Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 17, 2013

Who’s speaking in that second panel? Guessing it’s Steve Boone on the left, but between the hood and way he’s holding his hand, looks like the Grim Reaper.

Four practices sounds enough. It ain’t rocket science…especially when the game is NOT going well.

We’ve had lots of talking body parts before – this time it’s a talking wrist.

Thorp-“Watch out for that quagmire in the middle of the field.”Player- “What’s his number?”.

Good thing Gil had that wrestling fundraiser. The new rain slickers have come in handy. P3- Random thought…When EES occurs in the rain, does it cause an electric shock?

smartwatch is passe in Milford. it’s a talking wrist with an embedded chip.

Yes! Even in rain the Sign Man shows up! The cardboard is still stiff and the lettering hasn’t ran down.

In all reality, the next craze in Milford will be Talk To The Hand.

I think I saw those outfits in P2 in the Charlston Heston version of “The Omega Man.”

Once again, Gil’s failure to teach his runners the rudiments of holding onto a football (P1) come back to haunt him (P3).

Waldo found, P2, upper right….

P1- EPS – exploding puddle syndrome

Johnny shows up in full uniform at halftime, after having a few shots of vodka and some chronic, and screams at Gil – PLAY ME!

Since Steve Boone only has one arm, his remaining arm has developed extra powers like when blind people have really good hearing. Thus the talking wrist. Almost worth losing an arm for.

@Cuttersjock and jmcx4…. could be a long lost Thorp kid.

Mongo was not your ordinary pawn in game of life.

In all reality, you didn t hear it from Big John.
