    P3: That’s the temperature of the little girl Mop showed us that Gil forgot on the golf course. Thank god they found her. They think the other two may be the Thorp kids.

    I remember 2 a days in 97% humidity and temps over 100 F. Salt tabs + water= varsity letter.

    Some of you Snarkers are having flashbacks to August football practice. My high school had a huge mega container of salt tablets and yes, the coaches were enthusiastic about the consumption of them. I made sure a coach saw me take one a week. Another bright idea was shave your ankles, apply Tuff Skin aerosol, then wrap the ankle. After a week of that, I had the student trainer wrap the ankles with Pro Wrap before taping.

    With a fresh coat of paint on Marty’s tinderbox, I’m ready for a re-energized Moonpie to start his traditional antagonist shenanigans.

    I’m surprised Marty and Margie aren’t hanging around practice to get the scoop on tailback.

    That’s too hot to practice in? Pshaw! That’s a cool day in the factory for Jami and Keri! And speaking of cool, it would be cool if you checked out today’s issue of Mopped Up Thorp.
