P1: There’s a nose for ya’….must be Karl Malden’s daughter.

Who points in someone’s face when they talk to them, other than Uncle Sam!?!

Not gonna touch P3…

Sorry, Bestie, I’m the starting point guard now.

Is Mimi pointing or gesturing in a motion like shooting a gun? If yes, who or what is she aiming at? If it’s this plot line of the story, too late, R&W murdered it weeks ago and it was DOA

In all reality , P3 is an easy layup for those who want it.

Considering Hollis has lost playing time to a kid brought up from junior varsity, she has a lot of work ahead to get ready for high school basketball.

Mimi to Pedro. “You have a lot of work ahead before you’re ready for pool season.

So they shuffle whole team’s lineup in midseason just for one girl’s future – if she has one. I think the thought of Hollis in uniform is clouding Mimi’s judgement.

P 1: “… You gocomics readers are gonna be sorry that you asked for something other than that dumb Pranit smith story…”

P-1: (as easy as P3) Uncle Sam or Mimi, the message is the same.

P-2: Typo: should read “on” not “in”.

P-3: Isn’t that when the Boys practice?

I am less interested in Hollis’ decision to change positions on the team than in her decision to change her hair color. Will she finish the season as a redhead?

P4: “Ball handling drills? No way sweet cheeks, without a future this is my chance to get out of this crappy story!”

Got stuck there when he forgot to have his cash changed into American Express checks and some one stole his money.

You know what I just realized? I have a lot of work ahead before I’m ready for college basketball.

P1 So you will be playing point forward!! Get it, point forward

I want to know what’s going on with the gamblers…

P2- And then she slapped my ass.

Yes, kids get ready for Thorp Madness season!

Okay, I haven’t read the comments yet, and I’m sure I’m not breaking any new ground here, but WHAT IN THE HELL? Does Mimi have an IQ below 80? She’s been coaching for a long time, right? First of all, as mentioned yesterday, Hollis is in the top half of college players in height at 5’10". Second, you don’t just switch positions halfway through your Senior year, and along with some after practice extra dribbling work, become excellent at a new position before fall.

And speaking of dribbling, you’ll be dribbling your coffee down your shirt due to your inability to stop laughing when reading today’s Mopped Up Thorp – https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

(Amount or lack of coffee dribbling will vary.)

P2: it looks like the lady on the left has an Air Force or Army design on her shirt.
