Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 12, 2012

First, Chip tells him to kick and get out of the way and now it looks like Gil with the same line. “Right, mate, toime tuh shoe em oi can tackle ais well!” (Attempting to type, using an Irish accent.)

Next,he’ll be playing defense. Not enough experience to play free safety. I would guess either corner or as a smallish outside linebacker.

I gues Gil’s never seen Gaelic rules football; they used to have it on ESPN late night in the old days before they figured out they could make more money with poker games. Let me tell you, American football is sissy stuff by comparison. The way I figure it, show me a 40-year-old Gaelic football player, and I’m looking at a headstone.

He hits him with acupuncture needles!!!

I’m repeating myself (nothing new there), but again, why is Gil telling him to boot it and get out of the way? Why not have Brody kick off if that’s going to be the strategy? It would make a lot more sense if Gil had told him, “Boot it and try to back up your teammates in case you have to make a last-ditch tackle.”

RUGBY

Full pads practice? What happened to the new CBA?

33 is out for the season with a knee injury. His college scholarship is gone, too. Marty Moon with more details on tonight’s Milford High Sports Report.

Hamani Fields, W.C. Fields, whatever. Hamani keeps taking hits like that, he’ll be planted like W.C.. Great form tackle by the Knight, Sir Terry Gallagher.

Let me take you down, cause I’m going to..Hamani Fields…Gil isn’t real…and nothing to get Mooned about…Hamani Fields forever..

Clean hit. Sir Terry is a playa! Doesn’t take direction too well though.

A soccer player would have slide tackled him.

Lemme guess, he plays rugby, too … helmets and pads? For sissies, I tell you!

Well…here we go again. The same tired story line of a kid transferring in who never played a sport and Gil gets him to be the hero. That’s OK sometimes, but every frickin’ story line?? C’mon. With every sport, it’s just a matter of time till some transfer shows up.

Hey, you dumb Mick! I told you to get out of the way. Now you’ve taken out our only player with breakaway speed now that the Ghost has vanished.

Congratulations to everybody who’s been calling “rugby” for the past couple weeks. I think we have a winner. And to dutchpuppy2, valiant effort on the Irish accent typing.

I feel like a knight, so I’m gonna kill someone!

Bushmill Play of the Day.

P3 – Exploding Pelvis Syndrome!

But congrats to tedybgame who called this result yesterday.

Mystery of the day: is either player buggered up, or is this just a sign that Mickey can tackle like a bloody Yank?

Bugger the toe!

I guess he told Gil “pogue mahone.”

Maybe Terry got hurt before he got the permission slip signed by the mother. Hello lawsuit.

As I said two days ago: “The new kid will kick off right to the goal line, sprint down the field, hit the ball carrier on the 10, tear off his head, do business down his neck, pick the ball up and dive in for the TD. Miford will win every game by a shutout, and then forfeit all games because the kid is somehow not a legitimate student. Marjie will console Gil in a threesome with Mimi, later joined by Coach Kaz, hot Molly, Marty and the poolboy for a little adult fun in MILFord. Please, LET”S GET TO FOOTBALL!!Our third game is Friday night, and playoffs start in 5 weeks."
