Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for August 13, 2016

Oiling his hinge is what got him his nickname – thanks for lobbing the softball R&W.

Have we seen the “Bob” mug before? Looks like Kaz got jealous and wrote it on with a Sharpie.

No kidding, Gil — if the door’s open, why does he have to oil the hinges?

P1, Gil, you’ve talked to one of his teammates, Tru(e).

P3, As mentioned by kdizzle, who knows more about oiling than Young Master Bader. He’s a regular Jed Clampett.

We may have a new twist in theis never ending story. Why does Kaz have a Boo mug? What’s going on in the seamy underbelly of Milford High. Time to investigate, Marty.

It looks like our hard working coaches might be getting in a few hands of blackjack.

Appears that 2 of the 3 Stooges are drinking out of a commerative Boo coffee mug made in the sweat shop Keri and Jaymie work at. I am stunned that they haven’t wrapped this dog of an arc up yet!

When did Gil have this talk? You’d think they’d be more sentimental about Boo leaving them her coffee mug in her will.

In all reality , Kaz looking at Gil’s photos of Barry oiling his teamates hinges with Gil remarking Not my best work . How sick !

I’m glad there’s not a P4, because Gil would no doubt be explaining to Kaz that his best work was winning the state championship.

Oil the hinges. The notion of getting along to go along, follow the path of least resistance (Critical Path Method) and massage his teammates…..no no you dirty minded Thorpmeisters, the id, ego and super ego.

Maybe it’s Boo’s old mug?

P-1: Gil sporting “mini” Indians War PaintP-2: Whaa?P-3: Nothing better than a piece of pie and a cup of Boo.With Kaz asking about Gil’s quote, I join the others who think R&W drop the occasional Easter Egg for we Thorpies

Secret Code: P-3: R&W are warning the readers that the panel is unsanitary. The two cups put together advise us to Boil (before reading). Or maybe MB is like a boil on the neck of the team. (Stab, squeeze, wait til blood runs clear. I hope, I hope!)

Master B – please transfer and end our suffering.

My guess, Barry will show up the next game and something happen where he either botches a play to allow the opponent to score or hit into some wild triple play to end the game. Big Ken Brown starts to pick on him, only for Tru(e) to stand up to Big Ken and defend Barry. To which Gil announces the season is finally over and Tru(e) can finally get to Wake Forest

Classic! “Oil the hinges!”

@ Ellisburkes: orRoll up! Roll up for the Mystery ShowerRoll Up! Roll up for the Mystery ShowerThe Magical Mystery Shower will make you a part of the team.Make you a part of the team. Look at the steam..

P1 – Ha ha ha, good one Gil, exaggerating his involvement. He decided to do nothing when he found out what was going on but suggested that Tru(e) was a jerk for not trying to help out Bader.

@MOP: Don’t pick on Bearwku82- This is Milford, he probably just got back from watching the new movie “Forbidden Planet” where the “Monsters of the Id” outdo the Wizard of the same name. Poor, poor Walter Pigeon.

As Ellis says I apologize. But given the ‘bend’ of this story line I submit:;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7e4Y03uojg
