Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 20, 2023

I’m sure there is a lot of one-on-one with Toby in the showers.

P3: In yo face.

Ok! Maybe you’re right! If I play on hairy Luke’s squad, will that make up for it?

P3.5 “No harm, no foul. I could have told her Elvis walked on the moon and we’d still be stuck in this sh*thole three weeks after our three week sentence should have ended.”

Is Milford Youth Detention coed? Does Tobe have separate restroom and bath facilities? These two are making progress. Kaz told GT they weren’t on speaking terms.

Yellow and olive are a nice change from the normal Carolina Panthers colors that every other team wears.

P 4 (Rod): “….you told her that this would be a ‘great’ story arc…”

No net on that hoop. Maybe they should sell some vape sticks to raise money to buy a new one — or a car. Wait, that’s what got them in the joint in the first place.

No net on the hoop is a nice touch. Assuming that was intentional. And speaking of nice touches, today’s Mopped Up Thorp might not be a top ten, but it has a nice touch.

Characters Held Captive: Rod and Tobe, 32 Days. As my friend, Gil-doh! pointed out, it was supposed to be a three-week sentence. We’re already more than 50% past that. Instead of time off for good behavior, they got time added for bad behavior — not getting along with each other.

They still need to find eight more guys to play a game.

So is Coach Martinez still working here, or was that just a red herring? Now that Gil has him on staff that story arc seems moot.

Okay, Jesus, I win, you go to Milford Tech and get me released from Milford Detention. You win, you can go play for Coach Kim if he took that new job at State U.

“I lied to Dr. Pearl, Rod, so the athletic department wouldn’t have to repo Leo’s fancy new shoes! plus all that new video equipment Coach Thorp bought for, uh, analyzing our swings…”

“If your game is as bad as your plot development, they oughta ship yo’ a$& back to Attica, Jake.”

Hardened criminals still call her Dr.
