Miserable? How about your readers who have stuck through this crap? Now get out to Milford CC and their newly tiled showers, I understand that Doc Gattuso personally approved the hand held Grohe plumbing fixtures, to make certain every fold gets clean.
P3- Gil makes his first appearance in months and we can see he has been working on his calves like the guy in the Liberty Mutual commercials…Mimi’s pronation will lead to hip dysphagia down the line
P2 Nothing worse than being on a traveling team that is going nowhere, and why would you call it a traveling team?
P3 It has been so long since I have seen Gil Pa, but I am not sure that it is him..bears no resemblance to prior renderings of this legend. The art work in this strip is pathetic!!!
Gil says Who cares Mimi , Keep your eye on the prize , when the going gets tough the tough get going , Quiters never win and winners never quit . In all reality Shut Up Gil !
Awww, poor baby, you think you have a grievance because maybe 1 in 10000 high school volleyball players go to the Olympics and you’re among the 9999? Cry me a river.
The story I read on my favorite Aussies is they were on the tour bus going nowhere and Malcolm asked, “Where are we?” and Angus (unless it was the other way around) said, “I don’t know mate, we’re on the highway to hell.” And they say, now there’s a great title for a song. AC TC lyrics here will also need to include hippos and 2nd chair clarinets.
I’m waiting for Mimi to give Linda the old “Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t achieve your dreams” speech. I always wonder how many people with no hope of achieving something have wasted years because they listened to that. I dreamed as a kid of playing in the NBA, and no amount of effort would ever have gotten me there.
I can tell you a lot of kids dream of playing at a mid major college. Look at all the girls playing Division three and paying their own way. Why not just hand her the depression hotline number; that worked before.
What amazes me more than anything else about this conversation is that it took the Australian team to show her that she isn’t good enough. Didn’t her travel team ever go to tournaments or even the Nationals? That’s where she should have seen she didn’t have the talent necessary for the Olympics.
You can always give up your scholarship and become an apprentice electrician. I wouldn’t talk to the the Thorps because they never got scholarships for anyone but Mr. Perfect True.

P1, The Thorp kids would be happy to get any sort of scholarship rather than being forced to work in a sweatshop for the rest of their lives!
P2, Whatta ya mean going nowhere, you just said you’re on a travel team!
P3, You think she’s miserable at shortstop you should see her play volleyball, Mimi.

What kid dreams of getting a TCFS button?

I’m having a hard time following how quitting a sport she’s pretty good at to play a sport she’s above average at would make her feel better.

P2: “…I wanted to be an Olympian….” She should just transfer to Rich Central HS in Olympia Fields, IL, home of “The Olympians”
