Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for March 27, 2013

It’s a simple play: Everyone wears a big grin, and the other team freaks out and forfeits.

Mr Snuffles. Kill Pig.

Pig’s gonna have to drop and give him 20!

No giddy biddies in the forecourt! Tell you what, Li’l Guard Duck: you and Mr. Snuffles can take out their best players while silly old Pig distracts the referees….

Now we know what Pastis sees when he sees a basketball court. The potential for two happy faces.

Gives a whole new meaning to “March Madness”.

OK. What happened to Mr. Armadillo?Guess even comic armadillos lifespans are short.

where’s still drippin’? (still leakin’)?

Unless they have more players, they must be prepping for a 3-on-3 tournament.

@lucidpage—These three could beat LuAnn, Margo and Tommie…but I hope not!

My error…the character’s name is Tommy!

Snuffles looks so CUTE in shorts!

If you are running a play, who cares where your best defenders are?

“But if you see me tonight with an illegal smile, it don’t cost very much but it lasts a long while. Won’t you please tell the man I didn’t kill anyone, I’m just tryin’ to have me some fun.”

when does the game stat?

Stupid march madness everywhere? I prefer puns!

I think it’s when you grin so much, the other team can’t stand it

I dig Mr. Snuffles’ yellow shorts! =^..^=

Pig as Kobe! “Happy Guy” hahaha! =^ ..^=

So is Pig’s number an homage to Magic Johnson, Karl Malone, or Kevin McHale?

Is he point guard duck or scoring guard duck?

Amazing and pathetic, how sports hold the attention of so many men, even at the cost of their own wives and children. Then there’s those who attempt to live their lost sports star dreams vicariously through their children, by forcing them into sports and then beating them sometimes physically, mostly verbally, when the child doesn’t excel. Many men know more about sports teams, their members and their stats then they know about what’s going on with their own family. Knew of a guy who would bring home a case of beer, plop down in front of the TV, turn on the game and not move, all the while his son attempted to entertain himself outside in the beautiful yard they had. Witnessed this kind of crap too many times. Now there’s March madness. No matter what the season, there’s always some game to focus your attention on, while your family and the country slips farther away right under your nose. Perfect!

Who was the guy who would make a decent drawing out of any line a studio audience member would draw??

So is Bucky in Get Fuzzy.

Excellent!

Pig needs a grenade down his shorts

I love how Snuffles looks in his little basketball shorts!
