Gary: Looks like our skiing has been "whited out" again. This blizzard is epic. You kids passing the time playing cards? Crazy eights? Poker? Jack: Celebrity poker. Hey, Keira Knightley, Antonio Banderas is peeking at your cards again. Mondo: Am not!
Finally, I have finished reading all the comics from Cleats from 11/26/2001 through today. I started this epic task sometime last summer and it’s been one of the most enjoyable tasks I can remember. I also have done this for the comics Adam @ Home and Stone Soup but this strip is the one I have enjoyed the most. It so reminds me the 1980s and 90s when my 2 boys were growing up and playing soccer and LL baseball. The depiction of the parents and refs (umpires) is spot on and the maneuvering to get soccer team coaches is hilarious. I’ll recite that in another comment.
