    What does that have to do with anything?!? Is this “I also can’t take the heat of the spotlight so I’m going to a small football program?” So all you kids out there, take my advice: Aim low.

    Sooooo it’s because Kianna couldn’t balance her priorities that you’ve decided to defect to Canada?

    Since Gil is Milford’s version of Sgt. Hulka, the big toe of Milford, Chance is volunteering his leadership. Chance, take your Tru-Do and a long Winter’s nap. We’ll see you in April in venerable Milford Municipal Park hogging balls in the outfield.

    Kianna was so stunned, her shirt changed from light blue to pink.

    This is a conversation you couldn’t have with her one-on-one? You had to ruin everyone else’s lunch by grandstanding on a table.

    And while we’re at it, you do realize Toronto is in another country and their football rules are different, right?

    Well, Chance, I’m exercising my ability to say “no more” when it gets to be too much. Please stop talking.

    Time for the exciting denouement, when Tevin returns to QB, Kianna focuses on volleyball, and Milford stakes its claim to second place in the Valley! Bring on Tech!

    And in closing I’d like to say, in all reality , the pressures placed upon the student athlete are real. Coaches need to recognize their responsibility is to make sure athletes are Not victims of undo pressures . The coaches at Milford failed to protect we the student athletes. Anyhow , how about a kegger to blow of some steam or a toga party ?

    P-1: The wind-up

    P-2: The pitch. A backhanded slider almost hit her

    P-2.1: After having her intelligence insulted, she smiles knowing it’s a long time until June, Blond Boy.

    P-3: The minority students agree: he talks too much, he worries me to death. He just taaaaalks talks too much.

    Is Kianna becoming smitten with Chance? What with her giving him the “puppy dog eyes” look. Tevin is so upset his shirt changed color (again!).

    I’m sorry, but the volleyball team expects this 5’1" gymnast to “lead” their team? She sure as heck isn’t getting many kill shots during a match. And Kianna is so pissed at this speech that first she ripped off her sleeves, and now apparently ripped off the remaining parts of her blue top. Luckily for her she had on this purple top underneath that.

    And speaking of lucky, you’re lucky because a new edition of Mopped Up Thorp is now online.

    As people start talking about wrapping up the storyline…was there a storyline?

    - Tevin is (or was) attracted to Kianna, but that has ultimately been irrelevant. When she turned him down due to lack of time, it didn’t affect him in any noticeable way, and he doesn’t seem to be too down about her not talking to him now.

    - Tevin doesn’t choke, despite best efforts of some teammates to convince him he does.

    - Boyd needs to go to hypnotist class, but his placebo effect was working till Tevin messed it up. Gil’s effort to coach ’em up into thinking they were actually good and not hypnotized failed.

    - Nobody cared before about where Chance was going to school, and the only people who do now are the snarkers who have Canadian connections or commentary.

    Storyline? Are we looking for a storyline? If we are, it seems like the parable about the little kid on a ranch digging through a pile of manure, and when his uncle the ranch hand asked why, the kid said “There’s got to be a pony in here somewhere.”
