Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 22, 2016
Transcript:
Nate: I can't believe Mrs. Godfrey threw me out of the game! coach: Rightly so. Nate: Rightly so?? She rang me up on a pitch that bounced off the plate! All I did was question her judgement! Coach: You called her crazy. Nate: Wha-? No, I didn't! Nate: I simply asked her to confirm her obvious lack of sanity. Coach: ...and a "clubhouse lawyer" is born.

just commenting on The Immortal Imbecile’s post from yesterday.
What if MG got hit with baseball and had to go to hospital for months, years, decades even. (It’ll give Nate time to finish hight school :P) I hate MG

Actually he did just question wether she was crazy – all she could have done was say, no. Coach isn´t to a whole lot of help in this case. Also didn´t he follow the ball, or had he his head somewhere else?

MG knows she’s crazy, she just won’t admit it :PPPPPP

In my book! She just is out to get Nate, for any thing she can!!! Revenge for his antics in the classroom!!!

His chair in detention room is already being prepared for his placement in it at the end of the first day of school! “WRIGHT, N.” reads the attached label…..

What is this strip about, anyway. Two of the three “strikes” were well out of the zone, the last egregiously so. The coach should have been all over this like ugly on an ape. Instead it is about PC BS

What a turd of a coach. Today’s lesson is when you get screwed by someone abusing a position of authority, you should gladly take it like a good, little sheep. Way to stand up for your players, coach.

Coach John would have freaked out over the second called strike and would have already been ejected.
Not saying that Coach John is an ideal coach, but when someone is already ejected for questioning an obviously bad call, the umpire is " on notice" and no one i9s going to tolerate a second bad call, especially a worse one.

Agreed Nate.

at least coach could’ve pointed out that mrs.godfrey was wrong… i mean seriously, yeah nate asked her if she was crazy but that doesn’t change the bad calls she made as ump!
BigNateBiggerNate28 over 8 years ago
sorry coach calhoun, but this time you were absolutely no help at all

also, this is kinda off topic, but has anyone else noticed that even after summer vacations he still returns to the same old 6th grade with the same teachers?
BigNateBiggerNate28 over 8 years ago
part of me still thinks she might admit she was wrong..

OlongapojoeSo he says, but actually he wants to impose his own – and with a Gestapo to enforce it.

I’m hoping Godfrey gets some comeuppance on this. Obviously calling strikes because she doesn’t like Nate.
big nate is awesome over 8 years ago
Maybe the plot twist will happen this week. Maybe Godfrey herself will get ejected. By that, I mean somebody being her up( probably Nate)

That is life….The thing we all have to learn is that there are always people that are always right even when they are wrong. The sooner that is learned, the easier life will be.

Worst Coach Ever.
timmytohns over 8 years ago
I honestly would think Coach John would’ve done a better job. After all, she was a slacking umpire. Coach John doesn’t allow slack.
Rolf Rykken Premium Member over 8 years ago
Wow, Nate’s going to be a lawyer. And he’d win this case! :)

In a MLB game, you can challenge the ump for unfair calls. Nate should’ve done that.

Nate, I didn’t call her crazy “I simply asked her to confirm her obvious lack of sanity”

Even so, you have to stay by the umpire’s calls..

Technically, Nate didn’t call her crazy, he just asked if she was crazy.
