Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 21, 2019

P1, In Milford? In August like everywhere else?

P2, Lose the pads, have a hot, soapy shower and lunch.

P3, You know you want it, Marjie!

P4: And there’s “Sloppy” Joe standing in the doorway of the locker room, wearing a towel around his hips and holding a loofah!

" I shouldn’t.”

“Trust me – you want to.”

That is Bobby Howry – level creepiness right there.

After Snark Nation’s forum yesterday on experiences with August two a days and salt tablets, Rubin & Whigham must be clairvoyant. Sloppy Joe Wednesday? After Taco Tuesday? I predict a hydration problem. No doubt. GilPa is promoting a running game loosely based on the luncheon served.

Wow. Nice coded language Gil.

Things are so swell in Milford that Gil’s whistle is musical! As for lunch, who is paying for the meal? Deep pockets in the program? Another mystery would be if Coach’s whistle is “modern” (Fox 40, the best) or is it the old school Pea? If only we knew…… what the hell is going on!

Who whistles eighth notes (Gill apparently)? Normally, it’s whole note with a fermata.

Not the day to be the QB under center is it?

P2: Gil’s learned a new trick after Tru(e) went to that all you can eat football camp a few years ago. Next stop- the Golden Corral.

For a second there I thought Sloppy Joe was the new quarterback. Out in the sun all morning.

If they know the drill, why does he have to tell them what to do?

In all reality, Yay, it’s the new improved updated MODERN Gil Thorp ! Note the nutritional value of the lunch being served. Yes, Gil is an Inovator.

Just asking, since Chance Moy’s cousin is Chance The Rapper any chance of him visiting Milford to see his cousin play, maybe do a concert, donate a nutrition center for wayward student athletes, in all reality inquiring minds want to know .

Load up on sloppy joe’s and then go run stadium steps for 2 hours.

I didn’t realize Sloppy Joes were super fattening. Sounds like just an excuse to not hang around Gil any longer than possible. Smart girl. And speaking of smart, it would be smart of you to read today’s edition of Mopped Up Thorp.

I did not play football, and my kids went to a small school with no football program. Is that normally a thing with two-a-days? You just stay at the school all day for the two practices and they serve you lunch in between?

…is a “sloppy joe” an expression like “Eggs Danny Thomas style”? Someone check the Urban dictionary…
