Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 14, 2020

… because Milford is giving up football?

Gil getting dressed in P3 after giving Marjie “the Exclusive”, he better hope that was also off the record.

P3 GilPa on steroids? Man did he bulk up over the summer!!!

Why are the windows in P1 and P2 — on opposite sides of the room — of wildly different heights? Are they in a fun house? And is P2, why does Mimi look like a sad 16 year old in P2? Did she just peer over into P3 and see Gil and Marje in their own fun house? So what’s it gonna be — Her or Me?

UH oh! , a game manager at the QB position. No heroics this year. Going to be a boring season. Ride the defense. Sounds like the Bears.

“Wounded.” Well, that sort of thing happens, in a knife fight.

P1- Since this is a butt spanking sport at each stoppage in play, Mimi should fit in as the chief spanker.

P2- As The Stones “Faraway Eyes” plays over the muzak intercom, (Dr. Pearl has left for the day), snarkers can only speculate where Mimi’s mind is.

P3- Is that Marjie or HVB asking the hard hitting question? Like everything he is involved in (tsk, tsk), GilPa remains non committed.

P2: Is that Mim(i) breaking the 4th wall with the wistful, “Help me GTF outta here” look? P4: Cue Sign man and Fist Pump Man with this year’s rallying cry, “We’re #3!, We’re #3!”

Off the record? I’m taking in volleyball this fall where the team looks to finish better than fourth.

P1, Yeah, she sure seems shy.

P2, I don’t remember ever seeing a volleyball team at Milford and Mimi looks like she regrets starting one.

P3, Hmm, so they both suck equally or one of them will end up at Valley Modified. Stay tooned.

Mimi can’t believe Junior and Senior girls still playing patty-cake.

In the color version State Champion Gil is resplendent in a vibrant red outfit he got from Pimpin’ Dan’s Clothes in Goshen.

I wish somebody would wound her. So far, Besides being annoying af, she’s all bark and no bite

Mimi’s glamor shot

And on the record, I don’t care.

P 2.5: “… funny?… I can’t ‘effing believe these two ever made it past eighth grade…”

P1 – So tall, curly headed girl is probably not a member of MENSA.

P2 – Mimi is giving the biggest eye roll ever. Probably because double high fiving over that made no sense.

P3 – So what is Gil saying? That they will have such a dominating run game that they’ll rarely throw? Or that they are so pathetic that they’ll go 0-10 no matter who’s the quarterback?

And speaking of pathetic, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is ready and waiting!
