    Coach, uh, how should I ask out a teammate who scores 29 points?

    Let’s use it as a launching pad for a more coherent story. The premise of Lini and the hateful website was good, but too often panels were wasted with glimpses of a girls’ game that went nowhere. Either focus on the boys’ team or the girls’ team. Trying to keep both going in the same season just doesn’t work.

    Hey, that’s a thought - focus on the girls’ team for the whole season. It’s not as if there’s not a market for girls’ hoop out there.

    How does that song go… put me in the field coach I’m ready to play…

    Where was Cortez before the win streak?

    P1: Cortez is smiling or scowling with his jam job.

    P2: Selfish Ghost in front row cheering the launching pad remark. As a Senior, your time is up pal.

    P3: Can’t figure out what is on the side of Lini’s belt.

    I am just so glad this whole thing is over. Can we now please start baseball or find the Thorp kids?

    Gil better not lean back too far, or he’s going to go crashing right through that plate glass window. Maybe there should be an investigation into the obvious ties between certain members of the Milford School Board and the plate glass window industry. Follow the money!

    Lini seems like a nice kid. Why not drop the “is he gay or not” stuff and treat him like just another high schooler, as much as possible, so that what he asks Gil is something like, “What colleges should I apply to?” or “Do you know of any summer jobs? I need to earn money for college.”

    P.S. I think the bodies of Gil and Mimi’s kids may be stuffed in their closets.

    Coach…..What happened to your kids? We have not seen them in years.

    Milford always has multiple dunkers on their team, obviously an athletic/tall team, yet they never make the playdowns. Gil has been getting a free pass for too long, still living off that championship from……I can’t remember when….20 years ago?????

    Gil must be really impressed with Lini’s talking tie. Perhaps he will trade his “Gil” mug for it. All Gil is thinking about is how Fang will be so freaked out by a talking tie.

    Yes, jterran, but how many schools do you know of where one guy coaches football, basketball and baseball? Milford is saving a bundle. Either Milford’s not in a union state or Gil forgot to join.

    Coach, how can I ask Cortez not to do that Blake Griffin dunk over a car?

    Schools pay for each sport coached, obviously Gil needs the $.

    Cortez needs to have that bat removed from his armpit!

    Next season? What about this season’s district tournament?

    Coach Rockwell at Valley Falls High coached football, basketball and baseball until he became an assistant at State when Chip, Soapy and the gang graduated.

    No districts in this state. You have to qualify for the playdowns, although that was never explained. I’m guessing you have to win the conference?
