Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 28, 2013

What is it John? What are you trying to tell me? Why are you zapping me on the shoulder with your electrified index finger? Has Timmy fallen down a well? No? Is it Mike Hayes’ rotator cuff? Is that it? Good boy!

What’s the hand signal for “you’re a bad coach and your hairstyle is out of date”?

I swear someone else has been drawing this strip lately. Kaz looks like Gil with a different hairstyle, and Marty has had weird expressions on his face never seen before. Something fishy going on.

John is telling Kaz," I can play QB better than the guy with two-tone hair" and starts writing Chuck Bednarik’s name in the dirt. " I can return punts, too! And if you want I can coach."

john also telling him he can do a better job on radio than Marty

Not only is the Mudlark D stifling, so is that sippy cup of apple pie Moonpie is ingesting by that poop eating grin. Much like Bill O’Reilly, Neal is attempting to expand our vocabulary.

I think Big John’s ready to talk. I’m really getting my hopes up for some conversation tomorrow.

John is expressing universal toddler language for “My finger has an ouchie.”

In all reality, Big John is telling Kaz stay away from Angie or I ll cripple you.

Actually John’s signaling – “My face is melting. Did someone open the Lost Ark?”

Could it be as obvious as the old “Pull my finger” gag?

John is telling Kaz that even he can call plays better than Gil and Kaz are doing.

“You have a brain?”

Uhh, Coach Kaz, how do I get that cheerleader to stop looking at me?

Does Pasco look like Tebow in panel 3?
