I think I have it figured out. Charlie Brown is addicted to trying to kick the ball. How else could you explain his abuse inducing behaviour? There must be some rush involved in running up, swinging the leg and flying through the air that outweighs the inevitable WUMP that happens each time. It must be an addiction.

I love how in the second panel he says “Oh no….not again!” as if he knows exactly what’s about to happen.
