Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 17, 2013

I’m still trying to figure out what the lesson to he learned in all of this is, other than a good way to treat seniors is to slam their heads into a turnbuckle. My next visit to Aunt Sadie should be interesting.

I’m guessing the turnbuckle slam was a scripted part of this bout. Hope so, anyway.

Maybe Harry jumps in and pummels Gil, rendering him unable to “coach” this season. Get that resume in the mail Chip!Maybe the lost Thorp kids are in the crowd—still angry over the abandonment, and they also hop in to pound on Gil.

I know one thing, I sure as hell ain’t cleaning up this mess!

“…And we’ll work out the ending on the fly” is starting to sound ominous now…

Pro wrestlers don’t wear tank tops..

Maybe Herk will resort to using a “foreign object.”

A Subwich sub perhaps?

Is a blow to the head really the best thing for an Alzheimer’s victim?

Yes, it is.

OOOF! SPLAT! BONK! ZLOPP! THUNK! George Steele knows what to do with that turnbuckle.

Figure four grapevine dislocating Gils legs followed by a sleeper hold which is banned in 49 of the 50 states renders Gil unconcous

No doubt Mimi is hoping Gil keeps that dandy wrestling outfit to wear on those special blue pill evenings.

Okay, somebody called it correctly…P2, faceless fans showed up.

And no ring girls?

Do the Milford students know this is scripted or do they all believe this is real like we did back in the day?

They seem to be throwing more punches than holds.

Gil thought the Chippendales were hiring….

Sure they are, but Gil and Pops left the end of the match up in the air.

I’m not so sure they’ve determined who’s going to win. Gil will want Pops to win to repay the debt he owes Harry, but it won’t be that simple.

Gramps finishe Dandy with a bionic elbow, ala The American Dream, then a bulldog in tribute to Davey Boy Smith and to bring the house down, from the top rope, an elbow drop, in memory of Macho Man Randy Savage.

Herk the Mauler has a heart attack; dies; in the ring; Gil charged with manslaughter; pleas down to 2 years; Neal and Rod take off for a well deserved rest. See ya in two years, Neal.

The old man still has some pythons.
