    Maybe dad also hates football and wants him to be a singer.

    In all reality , Gil continues down the hall stopping at another classroom and asks Can I borrow that dumb kid ? The teacher replies , Sure just don’t forget to return Kevin .

    P1, Gil, for the life of him, can’t remember the name of his star left tackle and Anthem singer.

    P2, Is something wrong, coach? Have you checked my baseline test yet?

    P3, The ants swarm around to see the heartwarming father and son reunion.

    “No, I would not give you false hopes,

    On this strange and mournful day

    But the father and son reunion,

    Is only a motion away…"

    (With apologies to Paul Simon.)

    I’ll just wait here until tomorrow to find out the conclusion of “Did the- dad!”. Good thing it’s not a Saturday today.

    P-1: Gil accidentally gets the teacher to admit her illicit interest in a male student. Why don’t we ever hear that a 26 year old High School Teacher is accused of having sex with a senior citizen?

    P-2: While showing Gil how Michigan is shaped, Gil gets an eerie message from Central Michigan University’s recruiter.

    P-3: As Dad gives himself a warm hug, Rick breaks into Paul Peterson’s “My Dad”.

    With our ongoing comments about it actually being HS basketball season. Not sure how it is in some of the colder climates where some of “y’all” are. But; in panel three that bare tree outside that window would definitely be a ‘winter’ tree down here. It’s sure not a ‘fall’ tree with colorful (or at least brown) leaves on it during what would still be HS football season. Which here in NC would be early December at the latest – and that would be only the state title games.
