In full uniform at opponent’s field so I assume it’s a road game, even though there appears to be nobody in the stands, and Gil wants to “try” a new play never practiced before? Let’s get real.
Not sure who ‘Leo’ is, but from his jersey number, he’s either a running back or a defensive back so why would Gil be discussing the play with him and not his quarterback?
I cannot figure out this scenario. Is it before the game, is it half time, is it a time out, why are all the coaches on the field, where did Cami appear from, she wasn’t in P1 or P2. Would you start the game with the Thorp special which he has been running for 50 years to surprise them? So many questions.
Come on, why don’t they just alternate between running The Thorp Special and The Luke Special (I forget what the name for it was when he ran it at VT, if it had a name). They would be unstoppable! Or does Luke’s play only work when Pedro is the QB? And speaking of work, I did just about the minimal work to get today’s Mopped Up Thorp out.
Oh man, I just woke up. I ate like, half of Jack Berrill’s birthday cake. I didn’t plan on it, but I accidentally fell into it and had to eat my way out. Took half the night.
There was no indecision about play calling and execution last night in Milford, (OH) as the Ohio AP poll #7 ranked, Division 1, Region 4, #1 ranked Eagles defeated winless Little Miami 28-0 to move to 6-0 overall and 5-0 in conference play. But wait! There’s more! Milford’s win, coupled with a Winton Woods loss means the Eagles are in sole possession of first in the Valley (aka Eastern Cincinnati Conference). The season of dreams rolls on.
P2- Portly Luke has gone to h@ll in a hand basket. Looks like the only thing he’s been lifting has been jumbo sized forks and spoons. Breaking News Irish Laddy! The amazing sloppy joe inventory is decimated.

Apparently Leo is not impressed with the Thorp Special. He likely assumes loofahs are somehow involved.

Luke looks natural sucking up and throwing that know in all Cami under the bus. Nice!

Yes, let’s run a play that had never been practiced. All coaches do that
