I guess no Madison kids have seen the video, no taunting to throw Wendy off form like in the other games, but the travelling mop man took care of business on that gym floor!
Can’t have Milford winning anything, right? That would just get in the way of the treacly, heavy-handed lesson forced on the few readers that read this strip expecting a successful high school sports team.
As far as we know, this is Milford’s first loss. How can they be two games behind? Does stuff happen in Milford that we’re not privy to? What ELSE aren’t Neal and Rod telling us about?
After all the shadowy figures in this story line, many of whom have fluorescent numbers on their jerseys, we now have a white shadowy figure in P3. Maybe Madison is a bunch of closet racists who pressure their black shadowy figures not to appear in the background. Where’s Al Sharpton when you need him?.
In all reality, did Shelby really say she had to level that cow ? Note the bullet marks from incoming fire surrounding the window in P 2. Marty still in rehab sit tight Thorp kids for your guest appearance on his upcoming tv show Good Morning Milford.
It’s like baseball, Milford has two games in hand. I keep trying to tell you. That’s not Mop man’s shine. Aliens use powerful force fields to elevate. All we have is Flubber.
Check the colorized version at http://www.seattlepi.com/comics-and-games/fun/Gil_Thorp/It looks like Shelby’s prison window is a 2D image floating in the sky similar to the Kryptonian Phantom Zone.
This “Milford never wins” theme is unfounded. I have a Gil book (best present ever!) showing that the basketball team had a .691 winning percentage from 1958-1993 and made the playdowns all but 9 times, winning states 7 times. If anything, they win too much (or used to, anyway).

Yesterday they were not in the same row or same side of the bus. Wendy must be squatting in the aisle to get this close.

If that is a normal sized door in P3 Wendy is at least 6-9 and about 200 or 210. Makes Britany Griner look like a midget. Milford should never lose!!

Forget Al Sharpton. Shelby needs Pam Grier to spring her out of Milford Women’s Pen, but only after the obligatory fight in the shower scene.

Maybe ‘Mop’ has given us a clue to the ‘where abouts’ of the Thorpe kids. They are in that dungeon.
