Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 19, 2021

So THAT’S how Kaz got his ear pierced.

Clueless Gil late to the party again. Team falls flat without hypno-mojo.

P4 “No “coach”, we are 6 – 0 because of these TCFS (Too Cool For Spiller) buttons and our rally opossum, who we call Foggy, wanna rub him for good luck? Just don’t mistake him for a loofah during the post-game drills

It looks like Gil’s going to push the dart at the board.

P1 Is GilPa aiming at his forehead or heart???

“Any fallout from Tevin’s speech? And remember I’m holding the gom jabbar.”

GAAACK!!! GilPa’s ant covered arm! What a visual to start the day, meanwhile in P2, Kaz is getting ready to use a marker to black out the frame and prevent snarkers…errrr…readers from seeing him and GilPa duck away for some loofah time

In all reality , so Tevin and Gil kill the MOJO the 6-0 Milford team had going and lose by 3 touchdowns.

Kaz and Gil pregaming at the Ye Olde English Pub.

P1- Are GilPa and Kaz at Harry’s Pub? Did Harry Hercules and Herk the Mauler stay in Milford for the tasty Subwich menu and open a business? Wouldn’t it be fun to see the old geezer groveling over his daily sandwich? Probably not.

Time for Tevin to shine! Lead the team to the conference championship!

I’m getting sleepy. Sleepy.

Getting ready to be 6-1, then finishing 6-5 and just missing out on the playoffs.

Never seen a guy hold the dart by the feathers. Geez, it’s liable to go anywhere.

I assume Gil and Kaz are just throwing the darts randomly at the target, because I can’t accept that they’re capable of doing the math to figure out the actual score.

P 1.5: “…so it did work out for Tevin then….”

P 2.5: that’s 6 or 8 more than believe that you helped them Kaz….

Gil’s not one to address the elephant in the room, He is more a coach in absentia.

1:38 in and Milford down 17-0. ‘slike they’re hypnotized.

Vito from Goshen is carrying a lot of long-shot money on the Mudlarks being upset. I put another dime on the mega odds Undefeated/ State Champ play. Some guy in Vegas (in June) put down 30k at 30-1 on Shohei Otani to win the MVP, so I got that going for me.

“But just to be safe, Spiller is going to hypnotize the rest of you.”

Wait, now Kianna is pissed at Tevin? For what? For not telling her that he didn’t come clean about Boyd’s hypnotism being a crock? She had just finished basically admitting that she herself was to blame for her performance. Now she’s decided to pass the blame anyway?

And speaking of passing, you don’t want to pass on the opportunity to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

So no mention of “this is our final game, win and we’re champs, blah blah blah”, so there is at least one more game after this. And we need to resolve the boring drama with Kianna still. So I’m thinking, no playoffs this year. If this was the final game, then I’d be hopeful.

So what happens in this game? The team rolls despite nobody thinking they’re hypnotized? It was in them all along! Or do we finally see a choke, maybe from Boyd to bring about some poetic justice?
