Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 22, 2014

Silent but deadly.

Silent John, ejected for targeting..

P1-Tru will be trying out for the lead in “Brigadoon” later in the year with that limp wrist

Pascoe the Enforcer! …but was a penalty called? Hands to the head/helmet for sure. It’s issues like this that make me wonder about the sport background of the writers/illustrators over the years.

In all reality , after Big John delivers a vicious hit with his head to a VT player to avenge True, he discovers he can now talk. Big John says Thanks True, I guess I needed that , Hi Tip, Hi Angie, Hi Wendy, Hi Coach Thorp , Hi Coach Kaz , Hi Mr Standish, Hi Bitsy Twill, Hi Mop Man, Hi Sign Man etc. etc.Unfortunately, now Big John can t stop talking .

I’ve been following this strip since the mid-90’s. I can’t ever recall Milford winning a championship in any of the sports shown here. This “current” team and wealth of talent. I think it’s time Gil Thorp wins a title! Thoughts readers?

Uhhh, that’s Big John in P1 … if you want to comment on his wrist to him, go right ahead

Pascoe’s overlong right index finger looks like a piece of snake hose—or something.

Oh man, we were hoping for a much better response from Tru(e). “The Longest Yard” style was the popular choice. I guess that will be the end of the cheap shots, I’m disappointed.Valley Tech – known as the dirtiest school in the conference. I checked back to 2011, they’re the ones that leveled Brody because he was “killing them with his field goals”.

BBJ does play choo choo and freight trains VT’s #58. Game winning FG opportunity by Brody?

How True got sweep out of that hand gesture is beyond me. I would have read it as punt.

P-3 Yes, Superman, who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands, and who, disguised as John Pascoe, fights a never ending battle for truth, justice, and flags for late hits.

Apparently, playing with BBJ has led the entire squad to become fluent in American Sign Language. The players know that Pascoe’s 12" index finger downward is the call for a sweep.

Ah, so now we know what the “WAP” was yesterday. It was BBJ’s way of saying, “I have a plan!” I wasn’t paying attention to the uniform number in P1 earlier today and assumed that was Tru(e) diagramming a play. No confusion in MUT of course.

To Ellis and ‘CJ’………. Thought about you earlier today. Driving in rural western NC met an SUV with a CUB’s plate on the front!

@ellisburkes there was also Kirby Kyle, he had heart.
