    “You know something, coach, if we’re being chewed out for supporting the girls’ volleyball team, then maybe we can take that time to get a headstart on homework instead. Nothing to bother about any more.”

    (Never mind, of course, “You know something, coach, screw it: I’m a senior on a team where my best worth seems to be handing the ball off to someone else, and even doing that I play half the game at best. This is the end of my football career anyway — I’d have a hard time making a Division III team as a walk-on with that kind of resume. So take your silly garbage about where I should be sitting on the bleachers in my free time and stick it up your backside. Here’s my uniform and helmet.”)

    Great, Chance and Charlie are trying hard to support the team by not picking a side, so Gil leans on them and forces them to spill their guts when they don’t want to point fingers of guilt at their team mates for bad behavior? Not sure that abuse of the innocent is a good coaching technique. (I’d have been happier if Chance and Charlie had shown up in Gil’s office saying, “Coach, I think the team has a problem.” and let Gil be the wise father figure he often managed in the good old days. Or do students no longer trust him enough to come in and talk/ask for help?)

    If they work together successfully they don’t have to like each other. See Joe Tinker and Johnny Evers.

    A “healthy rivalry between our 2 qb?” Nope, seeing it has totally poisoned the rest of the team. Face it, gilpa really fracked up this time.

    GilPa will go to the two QB system because he hates controversy. Alternatively, it may be the “Wuhan Rivalry Virus” that will wipe out the team and the season!!!

    P4: Chance and Charlie: We’re going to side with Rapp, he’s proven he can move the offense! And is a lot better at play-calling than you.

    A good method for unifying people is to point out something/someone they mutually despise. We choose you coach

    P1- Kaz: Virus? You mean Delta house? Gil: Of course I mean Delta house you twerp!

    P2- Way to go to the root of the problem Gil and run an end around for information.

    P3- GilPa channels his Eddie Haskell and gives Will and Rapp the business. Is Thorp talking about uniting the team or romancing CK?

    “At least we were at the game! Your wife is the COACH and we didn’t see you hanging around! Were you too busy drawing up ‘off-tackle dive play #51’ to show up, Mr. Athletic Director?”

    Why not issue different color jerseys to each of the two camps? Team Rapp can be the liberos!

    It looked as though Gil was going to have to do some actual coaching, but cleverly managed to outsource it to some teenagers.

    P1 – Careful Gil. WIth that look on Kaz’s face, and the position he’s in, it might get unpleasant in a few seconds.

    P2 – Did you guys grow up in a barn? Shut the damn door!

    P3 – Ooh, a gratuitous hand gesture and EES in the same panel!

    And speaking of gratuitous, if you want gratuitous violence and nudity, well, I can’t help you today. But if you want ridiculousness, just check out today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

    P-4: Put one of us on defense so we aren’t rivals. Then expel CK so we aren’t rivals, then buy the dog some alpo so it isn’t Rival
