Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 14, 2015

Just CB’s luck! >__<

The game giveth… the game taketh away.

Lucky Linus.

Wasn’t there some early strip where Lucy was a competent player and an even better pitcher than Charlie Brown? Think I remember seeing it somewhere, maybe from her original incarnation.

I told you never to tell a friend about the girl that catches your eye! It never ends well. Maybe winning the game will keep CB from a new round of the shakes.

CB just stinks as a pitcher. I don’t think he’s ever pitched a winning game.

How comforting for Charlie Brown to be the friend of the MVP…

Lucy’s right: of all the Charlie Browns in the world, he’s the Charlie Brownest

No guts, no glory, Charlie.

Ah, “5” comes bearing bad news. Chuck’s ridiculous fantasy happened, but to someone else. If I remember this right, he gets mad at Linus for it. The team did win from time to time. There’s also a thread somewhere with Snoopy flirts with beating a home run record.

Is it Friday the 13th on that strip by any chance? Not that I believe in that silly superstition.xxx

Et tu, Linus?

first time i see that their team won any game :)
