Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 06, 2018

On the plus side, fancy new digs for Marty and an appearance by Sign Man. On the down side, Mike Filion is wearing pants that end above the knee, which I suspect would not be allowed in high school football.

P1, Marty with his sippy cup at the ready and Sign Man is speechless.

P2, Mike Filion’s tiny feet will cause him to have a Joe Theismann moment.

P3, Wasn’t Mike Filion’s claim to fame his speed? Run Forest, run!

“Tates Creek” where the deuce is that school, never heard of them???

There is a Tates Creek in Kentucky. In Lexington, I believe. Fairly good sized school.

In all reality , Marty says to his listeners In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month , HOLA AMIGOS ! Stop by our new sponsor Burritos R Us for all your Mexican food cravings and tell them Senior Marteen sent you .

P1 – Mike Filion is so nervous he lines up to punt prior to the National Anthem. Nelson stands up on the far left of the stands to deliver one of his famous, “HA HA!” lines.

P3 – Check out the cankles on Mike. I doubt he can get much distance on his punts seeing how he probably can’t flex his ankles.

Panel two: “Klattu barata nikto”

Did Marty paint the end zone for this game? The damn letters are crooked!

P1- Moonpie looks way too lucid. What could be in the sippy cup?

P2- It’s been too long. Welcome back Fist Pump Family members.

P3- The gritty, gutty Mike Filion better Anchor Down. The Commodores are coming and I’m not talking about Lionel Ritchie. This could go on All Night Long.

Flip the field, Filion! I expect no less than to have Tates Creek start inside their 10.

Gil remembers some trickeration play he saw in a Bobby Bowden coaching manual and ……….!!

By the time film boy steps on the field a possible second place finish will be lost.

Maybe the QB breaks his ankle on a 7 yard punt and film boy is also a QB if Andre says he is.

Prediction – this punt will suck. But the master Gil will talk to him, tell him to calm down and don’t worry about distance, and the next one will be a 62 yard boomer downed at the 1.

35 plus years of following Gil, I’ve never heard of Tates Creek.

The Texas A&M/Kentucky games today has been a punters duel
