Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 18, 2017

P1 – I see Uncle Creepy is having trouble with that dislocated arm again.

P2 – Methinks he’s referring to himself. All that’s missing is the “muh-ha-ha!”

P3 – What the hell, Rick? They’ve been practicing this amazing brilliant veer offense for weeks and he still doesn’t know what to do? Maybe Uncle Creepy is right after all, football sure ain’t in Rick’s future.

I know this comment could be made almost erryday but that hand gesture in P1 is just absurd

P3 So Soto take the guy in the inside gap and use a stem block to leverage his own weight back into the linebacker and disrupt the linebacker’s pursuit angle to the running back. Meantime the the backside guard will pull out and kick the strong side defensive end out creating the hole to your outside. Unless of course the QB audibles to a pass option in which case you pass protect. It is not that complicated. Of course you could always quit to spend more time on your singing career!!!!!!!! Let’s nuke this story line and move on.

Next week, Gil will put in the single wing

In all reality , We can never forget when Gil thrilled the nation with his T Formation !

Ha ha! Mom totally left him hanging in P1!

Yeah. Uncle Unemployable could definitely use a change

Uncle should remember that Nephew is big and strong,,,, and if he finds out he has been used………….

The choice in running speed option is whether to seal the DE or release the TE/Tackle downfield to block 2nd level, exposing the DE so the savvy Mike Filion can draw the DE, then pitch to Nick Hawker. The question is Moose in at FB when executing this play? If so, Moose can seal the DE or release around the edge. This strategy moment is proudly brought to you by State Champ Coach Gil Thorp Coffee Mugs, Countrytime Lemonade and Shower to Shower Body Powder. Have you had your sprinkle today?

P-1: Now lay across my lap and I’ll teach you about fun spanking

P-2: Beanie and Cecil’s arch nemesis Dishonest John

P-3: First, you pull your arms up way in tight, you fake to the left and you block to the right do Coach Thorp’s option with all your might…

Anyone want to lay odds that this arc resolves by Soto intentionally singing off key? Remember, you heard it here first.

…that paw in P1 makes Fred Gwynne’s look like Trump!P3- speaking of paw (singular) good to see Steve Boone finally breaking away from Milford CC

Got a serious question. If you watched that Steelers/Titans came Thursday night what did you think of all those shots from that sky cam? I thought it was annoying and made it hard to tell where they were on the field or how much they’d gained on a play. If you had a seat in the end zone like that most people would complain about it and Mike Tirico kept acting like it was the most amazing thing that had ever happened in a football broadcast.

P1, Connie cringes as Uncle Tonoose slaps her again. Sign the papers, beotch, I’ll guide his career and his money right into my pocket.

P2, Yeah, your’s needs to change back to sunny Californ-i-a.

P3, Rick(ey) still doesn’t seem clear on the concept. Maybe he should switch to singing.

For the few of you diehards that will be reading comments late Sunday, the last two days of Mopped Up Thorp are online.
