Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for December 03, 2024

Great googly moogly! What’s with the pinhead in panel 3?

Gil is back! 50% off all used cars at Foxy’s Used Auto or Gerads eats his shoe! The stakes are high!

P1: The steaks are high? The cows got loose in the marijuana patch?

P2: is Goshen’s mascot a pirate, or are the guys on the left wearing eyepatches because practice has been that rough?

Gerads seems to have lost his permanent. Must not have been permanent.

P3: Has Tays been going to therapy? I didn’t think psychiatrists literally shrink heads.

Does anyone remember the funny incident when Hillary Clinton brought a cake baked in the likeness of a large shoe and served it to Tucker Carlson? He had promised to eat a shoe if her memoir sold a million copies… which it did. He laughed and took the joke in good spirits. Once upon a time he wasn’t a total bitter stooge.

That explains why NoNads is wearing Cornish game hens on his feet.

A domed stadium? Even here in Fla it’s 35ºF this morning.

Let’s start a Go Fund Me page to raise money for background imagery and/or additional ink to help fill out the awesome panels depicted above. (I know, I know, everything costs so much more today, but jeez, maybe…add a cloud or two? A bush? Maybe a building or even a small chair? Something?)

Marty calling the game after a losing afternoon at Milford Downs…”Annddd they’re off and running. Hic, hic.”

So Marty gives us play by play of the games, and now Henry gives us play by play of the strip every day. Be still my heart….

“These blizzard conditions will be tough for both teams.”

What’s the over/under for “things that could never happen in a real football game” for Milford vs Goshen?

Gil’s player who beat up Nonads will win the game for MHS and then go remove nonads shoe and shove it down his throat while saying “…here!….let me help you eat your shoe mother-fuh ucker…giggle…..”

Is the game at Goshen?…Milford does a flag plant on Goshen logo after they win

What happened to the days when the game was about the players, instead of some stupid, made-up personal vendetta between coaches? Oh wait…..never mind.

The graphics here as impressive as those in a 1979 video game.

I’ve heard of Death Valley" stadium. Is this “Valley of the Giants” ????

another gem by the bill collecter and the finger painter

did the whole coaching staff go on a day time talk show and get makeovers ?

That’s what you lead with, Marty? Don’t you think both of your listeners are more interested in getting a car HALF OFF then whether or not some lunkhead eats a shoe? And speaking of lunkheads, only a lunkhead would skip reading today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

P-3: Poster for film about to be released (from Juvie): “Shout-out at the Golden Corral”!

My prediction: Heavy underdog Milford pulls off the huge upset ala Michigan and Coach Day has to eat a shoe. Oops, I mean Coach Gonads. After his one year not winning, Gil gets Coach of the Year despite only coaching 10% of the football season.

Having this end with Goshen winning, people getting half off cars, and Fox Used Cars going bankrupt seems unlikely. But who knows.

And that shoe will be in the form of a cake.
