    I like where this is headed. The game ends by Wednesday. On Thursday, AQuad introduces Molly to Gil. On Friday they hug it out. Saturday is spent watching Steve Lumm get rid of the ants, and the following week, baseball practice starts.

    That’s right, don’t tell Gil who Molly is, ask him to wait for an explanation. Good grief.

    It’s amazing how many contemporary haircuts would have brought howls of laughter when we were young. Aaron’s looks like something only a barber bombed out of his mind would have produced.

    I don’t want to make fun of the poor guy, but if you’re playing D on Tilden’s #1 you should overplay the right side, Im pretty sure he won’t be dribbling with his left stump

    Sure. Have until Friday. It’s not like we’re trying to run a team around here or something.

    @Chiphilton: Really, when I was young we had Hippies and Afros together with Princetons and DAs. The Punksters dyed their hair like crayolas and then spiked it as well. Kids always use their hair style as a statement. It doesn’t shock us. It’s just a different kind of wierd.

    Thanks coach, now I have the rest of the week to get high and can still play another game. Oh, I bet you thought I said I’d clear this up then. Psych!

    “We suspect you’re doing drugs.”

    “Tell you what, wait until Friday and then I’ll have an explanation.”

    “Okay, you’re not suspended or under investigation or anything, it’s not like you’d have any reason to lie.”

    Yeah, that’s pretty realistic. Well I guess it is for Gil, who’s always looking to do the least possible thing. In the real world, this would not fly. And speaking of flying, you should fly over to Mopped Up Thorp to see if it’s any more realistic than the original.

    Did anyone else see P3 and assume that was the opening tip at first? That is supposed to be blocking a layup? Both players’ form need work. And I don’t think those are ants today, looks like caterpillars. What the hell is with this place, you get rid of one infestation and a new one starts.

    Oh, and AQuad, be prepared for a surprise urine test on Friday. That should prove your telling the truth and you have four more days to prepare.
