Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 25, 2016
Transcript:
Dad: I had to take gramps to an appointment, Nate. Sorry we missed your game. Nate: Bah. I barely played. Nate: I got thrown out for arguing about a called third strike. Dad: Thrown out?? Gramps: Yelling at the umpire. *tsk* not good. Gramps: But then again, you can't let authority walk all over you! You've got to stick it to "the man" every chance you get! Nate: Especially when "the man" is my psycho social studies teacher. Dad: Dad, remember our talk about mixed messages?

I wonder if Nate’s dad would change his opinion on that game if he had actually been there to see Mrs. Godfrey’s horrendous umping (is umping a thing you say in baseball? Don’t know much ab it)
