Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 14, 2023

Sure, now he thinks about protection.

Marty don’t pick on a teenager…. Wait what am I saying that’s half your job…and that’s very sad.

Agh….wham….boom…it’s an Itchy and Scratchy episode.

Four panels and football today! BOOM! AGH! WHAM!

Pedro yearns for protection. Keri says talk to the hand. Wham, bam, thank you ma’am.

Ummm Pedro, that helmet toss on the field just cost your team fifteen yards. I’m not sure about the rules, but that might also come with an ejection from the game and suspension from the next game. Luke is your father.

Answer what, Marty? Milford has sacked Pedro at least twice, have him helmet toss mad, and are losing? Is Milford winning and that improbability needs to be explained? Is Mr. Vito making some discreet inquiries that cannot be ignored?

Credit to the defensive wizardry of Ms. Taylor Swift. Yas!

P3a: “But enough about Keri.”

Boom! shakalaka Wham! Wake me up, before you go go

P3- That’s the first snide remark Marty has made in forever. Is Dr. Frannie at the game wearing one of those outfits half red, half caramel?

In an unprecedented move, Milford’s Coach Luke runs a juice box over to Pedro to settle him down.

When are Chris Berman and Andrew Ridgeley going to make appearances? We keep hearing them in the background.

did gil go to that drake concert yet i wanna know if drake played rake the cake

gotta give henry credit not one pumpkin spice or leaves falling joke this month

on that second sack pedro noticed the grass didnt smell pretty i guess marty moons dog used that spot before the game

Pedro has a lot of growing up to do, on and off the field, in and out of the back seat of the car, etc

Just so Harry is aware: Is throwing your helmet unsportsmanlike conduct?It’s one of the various forms of unsportsmanlike conduct. The rule includes this language: “Removal of his helmet by a player in the field of play or the end zone during a celebration or demonstration, or during a confrontation with a game official or any other player.” It is not a judgment call.

This is payback for the time Pedro threw Don Zimmer to the ground.

Didn’t he switch schools when his father did?

I’m disappointed that there’s no $hit talkin from the Milford kid, like “… how did that feel?, punk…”, or “… you’re the worst quarterback I’ve ever seen…”, or “… you’re dad was right when he called you’ pu$$y b**** boy’…” etc

Careful what you wish for Marty. Milford’s answer might just be putting ToBe in a dress and having them taunt the entire VT team with a pole dance on the goalpost after scoring a 75 yard TD on a rainbow kick.

Why does Milford need to “answer back” to a helmet throw ?

It’s ok. ANY football is better than Keri, Jami, Thorpula, and Kwans dinner discussions

I don’t think Dad is preaching “grace under pressure” to Pedro at this point.

Man, Pedro spiked that helmet so hard that it bounced right into Marty’s booth. I hope he didn’t accidentally swallow it. And speaking of swallow, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is a bit hard to swallow.
