Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 30, 2024

In all reality, is that the grandson of Marvin Bad News Barnes ? Inquiring minds want to know!

P1: C’mon Baby, Let’s do the Twist

Next: Inspired by his catch, Hot Rod decides to give pro football a try.

P4- Mr. Barnes? NBA Rod? Since 1958 there has been no I in team. Torchy, Austin Perm and that other jag off need untiring and positive reinforcement. Like failure, welcome and embrace your young impassable teammates.

We had ways of dealing with the excitable youngsters, mainly good old fashioned on field hazing.

Color me confused. Hot Rod tried out for a pro league and he still has HS eligibility left? At least the new girl got him out of his bout with depression. And what HS Coach calls his players Mister? I though my name was Richard Head for years.

I warned them against starting “Torch” at cornerback…

It’s impressive that Gil can yell and blow a whistle at the same time. I think Jeff Dunham needs to be looking over his shoulder.

broken whistle it only went weet not tweet

i didnt know torch had time to go suntanning

P 4 (Barnesie): "…coach!…c’mon man!…you didn’t let me finish my statement with “a$$ mother fuh hucker”…"

So, in addition to letting Mr. Not-in-my-House tee off on the QB yesterday, the offense and defense basically wear the same colors when scrimmaging? C’mon Gil…get out your coma for once.

Meanwhile, the field house is on fire. Oscar notices but sadly, his Yeets go unheard.

P-1: Hurry, the Johnny on the Spot just opened.

P-2: Yeah, Touchdown!

P-3: as is

P-4: “How’s anybody else gonna be able to use that thing for the rest of the week!”"

Looks like Rod and the Torch won’t be sitting on the same end of the bleachers at Volleyball matches anytime soon. YEET!

Anyone else remember “Bad News Barnes” ?

He torched his weet? Watch your language, Rod! No wonder Gil is upset. And speaking of upset, you’ll be upset if you forget to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Meanwhile, the Milford (MI) Mavericks opened their season and league play with a 45-13 thrashing of the Kettering Captains. Second place looks very obtainable this season!

Nice consistency with Mr. Barnes wrist bands and tape

The question was asked if anyone needs to sign in to gocomics every few days.

I do, in fact. Every time my computer goes through an update or gets unplugged. The part that plugs into the back of my computer could be more secure, like on my first computer.
