Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 11, 2014

Panel 3… Looks like Gil is talking to himself in a helmet.

Spanish 101? I thought Milford was a high school.

And Tru is a junior. No language requirement where he went before? They should have checked this out.What if he has to take some math, science, and English?

Why would anybody know it’s someone’s first class at the new school, and ask about it?

They don’t study Spanish in California?

Besides, I’m pretty sure a textbook would say “Espanol,” not Spanish.

Dios mio! It’s about time.

Mop, judging from Gil’s face in P3, MUT absolutely needs a shower reference today…..por favor.

In all reality , donde es el banno Coach Thorp.

In all reality, why are Tru( Z) books speaking for him ?

When Tru saw the sign in P2 he let it go in his pants.( And he appears to have a rotating torso.) Tru will take it easy by throwing with his off-arm, making all the throws look easy.Tru Football begins.

At least Signman is back on the job. But what’s with the alien lettering on True’s helmet?

Really? Go over Milford’s playbook? Gil hasn’t changed anything in fifty years and the playbook is only like five pages long.

P3- Coach Thorp bought stock in Consort mens hair spray and enjoys a lifetime supply.

Can’t agree more with Woodrow, P3 is just plain creepy…absolutely begging for a gratuitous shower reference! Let’s get the weekend started!

No better logic than to have your new superstar quarterback wait a week before having him actually throw the ball. Especially since games have already started. Well, I guess not in Milford since there’s been no bonfire yet, but every school in real life would have played by now.I don’t like being bullied into repeated shower references! Doesn’t mean you won’t see it in MUT though.

Take it easy, we don’t want you hurting your ankle when you throw!

You forgot the gymnastic flip over the top of the line…

And my HS was so small all we had was French! Taught by the meanest little Black lady you ever saw too! The whole school was afraid of her. .Too long to elaborate but in all my life the funniest thing I ever saw was her reaction to this ‘farm boy’ (with an accent so southern he made me sound northern!) reading French dialogs one day. He pronounced them verbatim!

No fair, they blocked most of my awesome sign. Any guesses as to what the full sign said?

In all reality , any chance that True(Z) taking Advanced Placement Spanish , no way.

P2- Go Mudlarks Soccer! Playdowns here we come!

Actually Jarrod paid me to put up that sign. It says,“Hippie West Coast Scum Tru(e) -Go Back to Where You Came From!”Dang cartoonist covered most of it up!

Shouldn’t he be studying Hawaiin?
