    P1, I’m picturing the campfire scene from “Blazing Saddles.”

    P2, Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!

    P3, This was just on “Real Sports” on Tuesday. Teams that have an ice bath available have never had a player die from heatstroke. Looks like Hadley will be kept busy by this kid’s parents.

    Veteran trainer Rick Scott, the best in The Valley, tells the fallen player to stay cool. Really? Don’t you think the kid would if he could? Heat exhaustion? Could the concern be the after effects of those amaaaaazing Sloppy Joe’s?

    Shoot. Maybe I shouldn’t have put out the Sloppy Joe feast at 8am and let it sit there for 4 hours before everyone started chowing down. My bad! Hope the kid doesn’t die, that will result in a note in my personnel file.

    And speaking of bad, here is today’s musical edition of Mopped Up Thorp: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

    Don’t worry, if he dies they’ll name a Taffy after him.

    P3- Trainer Rick “Great” Scott attempts a Vulcan mind meld to convince the lad that a cool shower with close monitoring is indicated…

    Oh, another thing. The point of the mesh jerseys is to be able to tell the offense from the defense. Now I’m no genius, but it seems to me it might be helpful if the mesh jerseys were, oh, I don’t know, maybe a DIFFERENT COLOR FROM THE REGULAR JERSEYS????
