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

Teammate: “Hmmm … I smell smoke. Wow! What happened to Rapson? Why are his hair and eyebrows singed? … OMG, he has 2nd degree burns on his face!”

So what is it: are Milford boys so bored with Milford girls that they go all Dawson over any Noo Gurl that walks in past the metal detectors?

Does he actually have any interest in her, or is it the fact someone else does and he’s trying to show he’s better at picking up girls since he can’t show he’s better on the field?

P1, If you’re really lucky, Gerry’s kid there won’t have to call an ambulance.

P2, Third-string now and like all good 80’s girls, Corina wears her bra outside her shirt.

P3, Sorry, bench boy we don’t want to be next to run laps.

So, in Milford, do men outnumber women 2-to-1 or 3-to-1? That’s the only explanation I have for the “OH MY GOSH NEW GIRL TIME TO POUNCE!” reflex…

panel 3-OK, so running laps and being demoted didn’t work, next up, big parrtay, kids toking and drinking. Cops raid the party, OMG, its the QB house, and his parents are furnishing weed and booze.

That actually happened where I lived in the 1990s. A new house party, high end neighborhood, the QBs parents gave his a couple of cases of beer so his friends could also party. hey, it happens everywhere as parents try to be their kids “friend”.

Anyway, the kids got purdy drunk, 1 kid, with 5 people in the car, no one wearing a seat belt, going over 80 in a 25mph zone, lots of twists and turns, really big trees, hit one head on. None of the kids survived. Then came the law suits. Lots of lawsuits.

Funnily enough that almost the same thing happened in one of the towns surrounding San Antonio a few years later. Except this time the cops raided the party due to neighbors complaint about noise, over 100 kids, parents furnished all the booze. This time criminal charges against the parents

“Why would I? I’d put a C in front of that name, loser. The pass you threw, where the guy fell down?, was way smoother than this. Go disrupt practice and change all the little squiggly lines in the playbook, and you can take pictures of my shirtbra and talk to me.”

She’s a real nasty ass, isn’t she?

Why would I? Maybe because he works faster than Keto and from the look of your waist and hips, you lost over 20 lbs just listening to his @$#*.

Has a Mudlark been taped to the goal post since Jamal “The Ghost” Gaddis? With plenty of athletic tape, this could be an easy Rapp.

I don’t get why CK gets all this attention.

Because she was at Modified with whatshisname?

P 2: “….work a little harder, ‘ya stutterin’ pos…”

1st string kid talks like he’s gotten somewhere with her too…he’s no different than Rapp

P 1.5: “…because I have a problem with authority…”

P1 – Wait, it looks like she’s flirting with him. Is she starting to abandon her rebellious nature?

P2 – What difference? Both alleged QBs struck out big time.

P3 – “Why should we listed to you? You play call changer you!”

And speaking of listening, listen to me when I tell you that today’s Mopped Up Thorp is online.

Rubin and Police Chief Whigham, we get it. She’s a wiseass. Can you move forward with the story now?

Elsewhere, Marty Moon reaches Step 9 or whatever and decides to make amends with his dead father. Using the code name that his rent-a-girlfriends gave him, John, he consults a reknown psychic to bridge the gap between the mortal realm and “the other side”.

In all reality , QB 2 the Rapp gets invited by Corina to a VM keg party she’s having . The next day he shows up for Milford’s game with a massive hangover . Gil remarks to Kaz that maybe I should QB 2 in for series .

P3: “Hustle up!”

“We didn’t think that we were allowed to play Three Card Monte anymore. Hey, by the way, how come all of our cheerleaders are guys?”

“Beats me. Gil and Kaz do the cheerleading auditions in the shower room. Maybe that’s the reason.”

“Okay, makes sense. We were worried that there was something weird about that."
