Panel 1: "STRIKE THREE!!" Panel 2: "Wow! Lila struck out the side!... Uh-oh. I've seen that look." "What look?" Panel 3: "That lovestruck look." "What lovestruck look?" Panel 4: "The one on your FACE!" "What face?"
Nate looks so pathetic. It makes me wonder if he is bi-polar. First he is way up on cloud 9; next he is way down in the dumps. Boy, I’m sure glad I’m not at that hormonal age.
Didn’t we see this coming?? Like Marty last year clothes-shopping w/Nate for start of school. Marty had that SAME gloopy expression on when he was (all too briefly) smitten w/the salesgirl……….only to drop like a rock when her boyfriend showed up & whisked her out of Marty’s life forever.Like father, like son…………Bee, oh, oh, ache oh oh!!
Well, as Charles Schulz once said, losing is funny, winning is not funny. If Nate got everything he wanted and nothing bad ever happened to him, it would be nice for him but it would be a pretty dull strip.

I realize that comic characters follow certain traits, by their very nature; for instance, Mrs. Godfrey is never going to cut Nate any slack (although when Nate was playing suck-up to win a bet . . . ::laughs::).
I know Nate is swooning over Lila for awhile, until now, but he should take some advice from the Country duo, Love & Theft, “There’s a little devil in those angel eyes!”

Going back to the nate never wins thing- he has won, a few times, but he’s won. Think about the Jefferson Middle School soccer match. And he never really seems to lose at chess (except that time against the brain). And he’s had a winning streak against Gina
