    Whhhaaaaat? Friday night football on an actual Friday? Not bad by Milford standards, after only one practice and four or five weeks most High School teams have been in action

    P1.5 Boyd: they were more interested in visualizing then trying to rip my face off while yelling, “Beat Oakwood!”

    Tevin: “How about just trying to shut up and block earth pig?”

    Boyd considers it a pity Leni Riefenstahl passed on.

    In all reality , Heather finds out if she wants to sit in the Press Box she has to sit next to Marty Moon and passes out from the fumes missing the first quarter . She thus becomes a sideline reporter.

    Beat Oakwood, who cares, just beat the point spread.

    *Beat Oakwood by more than 6 and have your total points over 53.

    The football season finally starts and I am not sure of the socially relevant topic Gil will have to deal with and solve

    I’m waiting for the Barbarians to come around. Maybe they’ll storm the field late in the 4th quarter just as Oakwood is about to score the game winning touchdown, ensuring a Milford victory and covering the spread.

    As Mop pointed out, what good would it do the players for the fans to visualize something? Boyd’s mental processes baffle me.

    P-1: As the crowd concentrates on visualization, B. Bader begins to chant.

    P-2: Boyd demonstrates is mastery of History by quoting Pope Leo

    P-3: As the new QB hands the ball to highly recruited Chance, he inadvertently trips the HB by sticking out his toe. Mr. Macey tears his Achilles and won’t have to make that decision Gil told him about.

    So when the heck does this bonfire happen? On Thursday night, a school night? Or is it Friday, as soon as school ends, a few short hours before the game, in the daytime? Seems lame either way.

    Hard to believe Boyd’s plan to have everybody close their eyes and meditate while visualize the team beating Oakwood while attending a raging bonfire didn’t work. In a long line of non-academic scholars, Boyd apparently is one of the most non-academic.

    And speaking of long lines, there may be a long line of people waiting to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp, but be patient, you’ll get in.
