Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

P1 âWell, more like everyone else was stunned speechless that he was actually here and doing some real coaching, then there were his kids tied and gagged with athletic tape under the trainerâs table struggling to scream and break free.â
P2 It was so cold them fans like fist pump family and Signman didnât come to watch the game, h*ll, even Marty Moon was a no show
P3 âDonât worry about it, Mimi didnât show either, she said the weekly winter pool maintenance check was scheduled at the same time as the game, whatever.â
âI want you guys to play with a certain mindset, but also with the opposite mindset as well, because frankly the other team is better than you and we only have a chance to win by blundering into it. Hey kid, I see your parents donât love you enough to show up to your games; I want you to know that the rest of us notice these things and you should feel self-conscious about that. Gosh, I am so great, I bet Iâll get an award for coaching like this someday.â
P1- Must be 1981 as WMFD plays Rod Stewartâs âPassionâ, Martyâs color man Paul is making the broadcast tolerable and Ernie Fenton & Clyde Bean are poised to lead The âlarks through the play downs to a state championship in basketball. Tod Andrewâs was rocking the Magnum P.I. look well before Tom Selleck.
A great time before Peacocks, flash mobs, placebos, Shimura and apple juggling basketball players.
P3: Gil sees his future as a child abandoning parent in front of him and immediately after the game (yet another Mudlark loss) he starts planning to ship his twins off to the Far East for a âculturalâ experience.
âI didnât have the best relationship with my folks at the time. I had forged some checks in their name and wrecked the family car, and they took it personally.â
P1 â I guess they werenât prepared for the solar eclipse that was going to occur. Thatâs why Gil called timeout yesterday. Youâd think at least the Science teacher would have known it was coming and could have warned him.
P2 â Is this one of those divided team conflicts again in the stands, like we saw at the volleyball match?
P3 â âBut itâs whatever.â Milfordâs English department is definitely the worst in The Valley Conference.
And speaking of whatever, drop whatever youâre doing and read todayâs Mopped Up Thorp. (Actually, I guess I already knew what you were doing, you were reading this paragraph.)

Sadly, P3 is replicated across America thousands of times a day.

How do you play âsmartâ AND ârecklessâ at the same time â isnât that antithetical?

Well, now that we have a new writer, Iâm expecting to see more of me prominently featured in the stories. Maybe I can even get a lead role?

Gil was more observant back then.

I wonder if the new writer will reinvent the Marty Moon character and Kaz and Mimi. Seems like he has started with Gil

Maybe the Thorp kids are thawed out from the cryogenic lab and and resume their lives. And Fang returns to bite the hand that banished him.

Honestly, kudos to Rubin for taking a left turn from the usual Milford CC summer arc by opening the door into the Thorp Multiverse

When Coach Thorp spoke E F Hutton listened.
