    This makes incrementally less sense than the average Thorp storyline, which is saying a lot.

    Von Miller must be bugging the Broncos’ coach to let him play quarterback right about now.

    And why is he telling this to Dory? I guess it’s more evidence that there are no coaches around.

    Shouldn’t Moose be having this conversation with the coach that was actually there? Heather.

    Moose must have gotten his nickname from that monstrous Bullwinkle-Esk schnozzola he’s sporting in P3.

    So he did his job causing the fumble why should he then take over someone elses job to throw passes? Doesn’t make sense.

    Gil will have him play some QB like Terelle Pryor for the Browns Sunday- the Wild Moose formation

    Extortion? In football? Taking a dive, betting, drugs – maybe. But extortion?!?

    Moose has the Derek “Slim” Chance hairdo down pat. I would give him a shot at QB if he could sing and torch running backs.

    “We might be able to try you at quarterback, but first you’ll have to put one of these lending library boxes in your front yard.”

    In response to Bitsy’s Bas-Ket game question yesterday. I remember one side of the levers favored more accurate shooting. However, I would let my friends have the “Good Side” and continue to prevail. Our version of defense was as the opponent was shooting, we would flip our levers to throw off the shot.

    P-1: Dory’s expression says it allP-2: I’d be perfect, only people who can follow my logic would be able to anticipate my play calling.P-3: A BIG thumbs up to all the Thorpian commenters out there

    Sure thing, let’s see how your serve is since volleyball practice seems to have started in P3.

    P3 has a Lou Diamond Philips feel to it.

    P1- Pelwicki looking distinctly feminine compared to P3 where he looks like he should be on the buffalo nickel!

    OK, perhaps I am the only one who follows Moose’s logic. Allow me to translate: “Hakeem sucks at quarterback. He was bailed out by a great defensive play. You need a new quarterback. My beach footwork is impeccable. Pick me!”

    In all reality , P2 Gil has developed a beer gut he better it the gym. I anticipate a My Fair Lady theme with Heather coaching Pelwickie into an All State QB throwing to his favorite receiver the sticky fingered Barry Bader .

    So just how tall is this doofus anyway? Looking at P2, if Moose were to lay down his feet would be at one of those full field yardlines, and his head would be past the next one. Which would make him taller than 15 feet. Seems like playing him at receiver would make more sense, who could cover him? Also, looks like they erased the yardage numbers, hopefully they are planning on repainting them in the correct orientation this time. And speaking of orientation, no need to attend any orientation before visiting Mopped Up Thorp.

    The artists need to put some chin whiskers or nose hair on that dude so he doesn’t look so much like a chick at first glance.

    I’m thinking P3 is supposed to be the punch line to a Geico commercial. “Me playing quarterback – not going to happen. But saving 15% on my car insurance – Ken Brown and Geico did make it happen.”

    Moose is looking over his shoulder, and can’t help notice that Hakeem still cant get his feet set, and is still throwing high. If they only had some coaching. Rumor is that Gil was in Baton Rouge, interviewing for the LSU job. He flashed his huge, gaudy State Champion ring every where he went. He kept saying “Hey, Notre Dame hired Gerry Faust!” to the girls in the strip clubs. They had to ask him to leave, which is the only reason he’s listening to Moose now.

    It does seem odd to me that Gil wouldn’t even give him a chance to compete for the position in one of Milford’s two pre-season practices. It’s not major college or professional football. It’s only pretend high school football. Give the kid a chance. (Typed to get ahead of the curve for when he eventually gets his shot at QB.)

    Wouldn’t someone this stupid flunk out on the first report cards and become ineligible?
