Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for January 26, 2015

Bobby has poisoned his mind. And to answer Max’s question, millions of people whose religions do not allow them to eat bacon.

Let’s see..Muslims, Jews, Rastafarians, 7th Day Adventists, vegans, vegetarians, Jules Winnfield, Porky Pig…..

Gwaltney and Hormel both want him to get their logos tattooed on his bicep. Whichever one brings him the most bacon, wins.

In that up-the-nostrils shot in P2, “Max” actually looks a bit porcine.

Don’t forget Paul McCartney and Chrissie Hynde – no bacon for those two either….

Todays graphics could go in soooo many directions.

In related news, over the last month the sale of bacon to 45-70 year old former high school athletes has doubled.

“Max Bacon.” Kind of sounds like a bad name for a detective show someone might have pitched to ABC back in about 1974.

Great coaching job Gil. Shouldn’t your point guard be focused on getting his teammates involved early on? The Baconator has a bright future in politics. The kid is into pork.

Or they could be like me and can’t eat it anymore because of high blood pressure!

“Max Bacon.” Also could be the answer that comes up on one of those internet quizzes for “What is my porn star name.”

P-3, He say’s with his belt staring at Marty’s “head” set.

Great. Now Marty can spend the remaining 20 minutes until tipoff discussing this extraordinary development.

From what I’ve picked up most of us posting here are my age or older. Can you imagine what some of those coaches from then would do to an idiot that walked over during warmups to talk to a play by play guy.

Hope Marti becomes Maxx’s agent…. or wife!

…to paraphrase Ted Knight in Caddyshack “Don’t you have a home????”
