Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 29, 2021

I think on Letterman’s Late Night show on NBC these were called “Network Time Wasters”.

P3: The hidden telegraph key is used to spread the word.

Are we entering the “Oh God, please end this story phase”, or have been there already? Yeah, we’ve been there for a while.

I love that answer: “You said I’d never guess”.

P2 encapsulates the essence of the GT mindset and why second in the Valley perpetually eludes Milford teams in every sport

P3 Chance Macy quickly becomes irritated with Tevin’s attitude and incessant tapping and prepares to go blowtop mad with his Thor’s hammer left hand

P4 it’s been confusing, but I’m trying out for the Lingerie Bowl after working out my feelings

Cliffhanger! What college did he pick! How many days until the reveal?

P1- He may not be an internet ninja, but a dolled up Kaz is comfortable wearing ear jewelry knowing he’s spending time with Gil.

Hey everyone , in all reality , I’m going to be playing football , Tevin a drum roll please, I’m going to be playing in the NFL.

I can tell you one place he won’t be playing- this year’s playdowns.

Come on, Chance, you’re supposed to hold a news conference, with hats representing the three “finalists” and everyone holding their breath as your hand hovers over each hat until finally you put one on. This from the generation that turned asking a girl to the prom into a Broadway spectacle?

P3.5: “Yeah, stand up on the lunch table and make an announcement. Better yet, have Guts Spiller announce it at the season ending bonfire.”

Zzzzzzzz…..

P 4: “…you aren’t even gonna’ try to care?…”

" I decided I’m going to play football at some school in England. Can you drive there from here?"

What about twitter? #gottatakeachance

From today’s Comics Curmudgeon:

Ah, yes, finally, the big mystery of “Is Chance Macy going to play college football and if so where” is about to get resolved, and frankly if none of the actual characters in this strip are going to get excited about it, I’m not sure why we should even try.

The 3 day tease for something that is sure to disappoint

“…what if we don’t care. ‘Cause we don’t.”

You have got to be kidding. Three strips so far about Chance deciding on where he’s going to play football next year and they still haven’t said where it is. I told you they were stalling for time, trying to fill the days before they can start basketball.

And speaking of filling, you can always fill your spare time by reading Mopped Up Thorp – https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/
