Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 25, 2015

Third panel should have True saying, “I see you can talk and drink at the same time. I used to be impressed by that until I moved to Milford. Everyone in town can do it.”

Instead we get talking shoes.

These shoes are made for talkin’ and that’s just what they’ll do, one of these days these shoes are gonna talk all over you.

The way Tru and Rodney are looking at each other, J-Rod might just be able to take over as Boo’s QB. Hit the showers boys!

Check Strange View today for a little Gil Thorp hand humor.

Looks like Rodney’s been in a knife fight or 2. P3- I’m not better looking either? Oh. Wouldja believe I have a higher GPA?

Rodney’s secret is guzzling the Power Blast. I have a feeling Hoo sales will slump when True gets back to Milford.

I hope the boys in P3 are not trying to figure out who gets to do what in the shower.

Wait! Is there actually a COACH showing up at a Milford practice?

…well, I think we can just forget the usual brief encounter with Milford CC, this meandering, pendantic storyline continues…a shame, I’m sure Steve Boone after only two years under Jon Jawor is already down to a 2 handicap index…

I was going to joke about the football calendar in P1 when I glanced at my wall and noticed that my calendar’s July page (free from a pizza shop) is also about football.

“Any day I don’t improve is a waste.” Why, we all could have told him that! It’s just that with this strip, some days are harder than others. Lately it’s everyday.

Another summer with 7-on-7 related strips? Wow, hope my heart can take the excitement. And speaking of excitement, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is (mildly) exciting.

Power Blast?!! Ha!!! Captain Midnight says I should drink Ovaltine. Though, I’m not sure what Commando Cody drank. Rin Tin Tin and Rocky Jones were very big on Shredded Wheat. Bet that would result in some motion in the backfield.

Panel three: I repeat my comment from yesterday.
