Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 01, 2021

3 D’s (Distracted Driver Doug) crashes hard at Oakwood and leaves Milford’s dreams of finishing second in the valley heavily damaged and leaking oil

P1 – Nice to see Doug got his blond hair back soon after the turnovers.

P2 – How would he even think that was a pun?

P3 – Come on, Vic all of a sudden has a revelation as to why Doug wears #1 and ties it to racing? So suddenly Vic is a racing expert too?

And speaking of racing, people are going to be racing over to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp. Don’t get left behind at the starting line.

And Wikipedia has a whole page of controversies regarding poor sportsmanship by Michael Schumacher… Suspect Vic is not going to go there and ask Doug to crash into opposing players, knocking them out of games.

Sorry Vic ,in all reality , you’re wrong . I wear Number 1 because it means the Pole Position , chick’s really dig it . Speaking of chicks, how’s Tessi , keep your eyes on the prize . See ya Vicki D !

P1- Congratulations former longtime Milford assistant Tod Andrews as Oakwood prevails. Dougie coulda had a V8 to go with those turnovers.

Zzzzzzzz….

P1, But instead we get our first giant hand this week to your forehead.

P2, What the hell is that thing on your shoulder, Vic? In the color version, it kinda looks like a couple of bananas.

P3, And after those turnovers that lost the game, you are now no one.

Schumacher wasn’t wearing #1 when he was finishing second place in Benneton to Williams racers.

P-1: Late PF and TF on Oakwood lets DG take three Free Throws, the first fishtails off the rim, the 2nd leaves tracks on the backboard and the third is DQ’d because he took: “One step over the Line”.

I coulda had a V-8?

And I don’t mean engine size

Listening to Marty Moon last night to hear how a pro does it.

Doug wears number 1 because he’s a wunna-be

Doug leaves thinking his new nickname will be Shuuuuu-mocker only to hear VD call him comatose

Doug sinks into a morass of self doubt and loathing as a result of his indecision which he blames his poor play that cost the ‘Larks the game, his self-worth is further diminished when the rest of the team shuns him and ban him from post-game loofah activities and a seat at the team table at the Bucket. Further driven over the edge by Vic’s ridicule of his effort, Distracted Driver Doug is no longer able to cope and sets out to consult the legendary towel boy turned pizza mogul of Milford for some placeboral. On the dark seedy side of Milford the shadowy figure of Marty Moon approaches and says, Psst, hey kid, you wanna try some hoo?

Looks like Jules Rivera (Mark Trail) drew panel two.

You may remember the true news item about a man who was caught having sex with a tailpipe. He was arrested because the car was only 9 years old.
