    So this is the grip adjustment True learned at fat camp?

    True shouldn’t suck his thumb while playing. He looks like Linus.

    Captain Julius Funchess finally makes his first appearance in P1. I wonder if he’s related to the receiver for Carolina. Unfortunately Captain Julius should have been flagged for launching himself at the runner and using his helmet as a weapon. Nice coaching State Champ Coach! He did however, nearly block the field goal with his foot in P2. At least they went back to the regulation size football today.

    But, that’s one odd looking football Tru(e) is attempting to throw in P3. I wonder just how far and how accurately he can throw that thing holding it by the tip like that. He must have been eating on the day they were teaching Gripping The Ball at camp.

    Curley used to try using his hand like that in P3 to block Moe’s eye pokes. It didn’t work then either.

    Oakwood doesn’t have much of a kicking game…the 29-yarder barely made it. No wonder Tru(E) fights back quickly. The kickoff probably only went to the 35 yard line.

    Tough crowd today. At least we are finally getting our pigskin fix. Go back 5 or 6 years ago and look at our comments. There’s a Big Julius sighting as he chops down an Oak. Without further adieu, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A52p9jc-gOo

    That’s a lovely view of the alien space fleet circling the earth in P2.

    I predict tomorrow Marty Moon will be awed by the cool lineman Milford is starting and by Saturday we might have our first radio comment by one of the Darwin boys.

    So no one bothered to recover the fumble Funchess forced in P1? And if Tru doesn’t watch out, he’ll get flagged for taunting. Although, I haven’t seen many teens using the old school thumb to the nose sign.

    Well, the season is sure off to an exciting start. And by exciting, I mean rather boring. And speaking of boring, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is barely worth the effort of reading.

    With so little to work with, I shall now do my best Nose-Tackle Domus prediction: However the game turns out, the following strip will have Holly make a Shakespearean quote to Mr. Darwin. I did that without the obligatory quatrain. Why, the rest of you are now challenged to come up with said quatrain. At least that should provide some entertainment.
