Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 12, 2022

As if Chuck had timing to begin with.

Such as what, Lucy? Try telling that to Schroeder, but with piano in his case.

And there’s more to life than bothering others Lucy.

baseball is a beautiful game Charlie Brown!

Yes, like “Cricket!!” especially when the IPL is going on!!

Balk!

I’m surprised she didn’t charge her usual 5 cents for that advice!

Whatever you are doing, do it like there nothing else in life.

Lucy’s quite right. There’s also playing baseball to win. That’s something that Charles, the manager, hasn’t quite mastered.

Better than when in 1972 Lucy mentioned to Charlie Brown pitching the ball that he has cute fingers.

Don’t throw off his game, Lucy.

Maybe, but not much of life is more fun.

If his timing gets any worse, he’ll be pitching used cars

sub sports for baseball and 1,00,000,000 people would gasp in unison and suck all the oxygen out of the air and we’d all die – hey look it up on the internet it’s a scientific fact – you’ll find it next to the government’s ‘trust me I know how to fix the problem. give me your money and shut-up’

You didn’t know that? What am I saying? Of course he didn’t.

Blasphemer! Heathen! Bean ball her! Get the line drives out and target her!!

This from the lousiest outfielder in comic strip history.

Never mind the negatives roundhead. Your team is better without that girl.

True. She forgot to mention flying kites, too.

And he’s not talking about what she said, he’s talking about the fact that she left the outfield, AGAIN, just to insure the team looses. She didn’t have to leave the outfield, Charlie Brown isn’t that good a pitcher to begin with (unless you’re a certain future team).

Of course there’s more to life than playing baseball — there’s also coaching baseball, watching baseball on TV…

My husband lives for baseball (not as a player, but as a fan). Decades ago, we went to one of the final spring training games before the start of the season, and a local news crew was there asking random fans how they were feeling. Off the top of his head, my husband said, “It’s like spring as sprung; it’s the regeneration of life; it’s life itself; baseball and life are one.” He became the featured part of the story they ran on the news that night.

Majority of Women can do that to men….DAILY!

The most important things in Charlie Brown’s – baseball, his dog Snoop and the Little Red-headed Girl. But not necessarily in that order.

C.B. has timing?

Ain’t it the truth, C.B.
