Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 27, 2025

I thought the team getting fouled gets foul shots. And is that really how Hot Rod shoots ? No wonder they don’t pass him the not-so-round ball.

Poor Mudlarks. They only won by 23. The future certainly doesn’t “bode well”… Also, P1, what’s a “FWEET”? A “TWEET” with a lisp? Yeet!

The Mudlark got beaten by a bunch of p€ck€rs.

I hope #10 in P2 doesn’t fall over…he’s listing to port.

P1: Larry should have countered Moe’s smack with a double eye poke.

Huh? This goofball announcer can notice, while sitting up and away from the court, that there’s “… some kind of tension between the team and Rodney Barnes..” enough that he/she/they gonna’ blurt it out over the air with no real evidence? Who tf is calling the game now? Dr. Phil?

Who needs a coach when you can win by 23, even with team drama?

P 2: Great D!…especially by #10!

I’m all broken up that that there’s no AMA* yet again. Has Henry gone MIA? Speaking of MIA, with the new trend of no background art, have we seen the last of Sign Man and Fistpump Man? Are they now just a fond and distant memory? Please say it ain’t so!

On this day in Gil Thorp history, 02/27/1980

Player 1: The ref DID blow the call, coach!

Gil: I agree!…But it was wrong for Bobby to swear at him, and I don’t condone it!

Gil: But he was excited…He wanted us to win…and I’ve been waiting a long time for him to show that kind of spirit.

Gil: And I don’t want you to turn your back on him! Okay?

Gil: Bobby! Come on in!

Gotta love the rugby ball they’re playing with.

is that what a smelly armpit sounds like FWEET

bucko was right jackie is horrible at her job

in a scene racheal wouldnt draw oakwood let there mascot fly over the court and it takes a deuce on rod

Still giving the scores backward.

“This does not bode well for the Mudlarks”?

Huh? Given the final score, it seems to bode very well for the Mudlarks.

Bring back Marty Moon! Even with his many, um, imperfections, at least he understood the difference between what boded well and what boded ill.

Seems like it boded well…

Rod’s getting blowtop mad.
