    Even a poodle would know that making a basket is more impressive than missing one, and running down the court without falling over is more impressive than tripping over your own feet.

    I would have to believe that even in her mollie induced state Maaaagard could grasp the concept of: ball through hoop=good;Ball not through hoop=not good. That same state of mind might also explain Aaarons hair style!Bo Rix

    p1 What kind of net is that? I never heard a basketball go “bonk”, Aaaron must have some serious hang time, he is still in the air and the ball is almost back in his hands. p2 24 is going bald. p3 OK once and for all pick a side to part your hair on. Gil great coaching!!!! Can’t wait to see how much fun Aaaaron will have…Jefferson by 10 and let’s get to baseball

    A Quad is clearly tall enough to dunk and he’s close enough to the basket to do so, so why BONK when you can DUNK? And what’s up with the double rim? That might throw him off a bit, but not from that distance. Even the ants are laughing.

    I do agree that in most cases BONKING is better than DUNKING but not in basketball.

    Gil in P2, “Does your mom know anything about basketball?”

    A Quad, " About as much as your average poodle."

    Gil, “Great, have a seat A Quad and have her suit up. She has to be a better shot than you.”

    P3, If she’s impressed by that shot, I’ll have what she’s on.

    “How about your coach, does he know anything about hoops?”“Even less than a poodle.”

    Not much of a crowd. Must be neither team is in the playdown picture.

    Now in most cases, BONKING is much preferred over DUNKING but not when playing basketball

    In all reality , P 2 Gil wearing silver collar tips and his embroidered country western sports coat. He and Mimì must be going out square dancing after the game. HeeHaw ,Hoe down , Mimi wearing layers of ruffled petticoats drives Gil wild , he says it’s like unwrapping Christmas presents.

    Bucky- That young man in P2 is suffering the nearly incurable disease known as The Milford Monk. Aaron is not sweating the moment in P3, he’s suffering from melting face. BStarFish, much like this season’s storyline, I believe the ants have sharted the wall in fabled Milford Hall.

    When you’re building a championship basketball team, you have to go brick by brick.

    Watching the tournament, was reminded of Menzie when watching the Florida player shoot underhanded free throws.

    And check out today’s “Real Life Adventures”. The Thorp ant problem is spreading to other strips!

    “With little resistance from Aaron Aagard, Jefferson breaks out in front.” Is that the dumbest sports sentence ever? And speaking of dumb, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is available:
