The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 29, 2023

Kid didn’t fall far from the tree, did he?

No. They only are a bunch of ugly brute boys fighting for a football.

They get worse every year. Too many of them. And more likely than not, every year is Alabama VS someone.

Who, in their right mind, would watch a bunch of college kids bowl?

College football. For fans of the sport who think the NFL isn’t corrupt enough.

Are any of the college bowl games played in domed stadiums? If they are, can they still be called bowl games?

And as I thought for a moment, it occurred to me

He’s growing up just like me

My boy is just like me

(with apologies to Harry Chapin)

No, “College Bowl” games. It’s a quiz show.

Good question, Wilberforce.

Yeah, I think I’d rent a movie.

Uncle Ted and Brutus are leaving that one alone .

“Bowling for Scholarships”

yes they do televise the NCAA Championship final round, last year it was on FS1 or ESPN Stephen F. Austin University wins often. They do give scholarships for bowling as well. A lot of them are bowling the two-handed style of Jason Belmonte who is the worlds best bowler for the last 10 years. He has changed the sport.

Going bowling with family at Century Lanes in Nixa Mo. Where Jason Borne is from! Blessings for the new year!

Time to start the kid’s ̶i̶n̶d̶o̶c̶t̶r̶i̶n̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ education…

the conference is the Big 7-10…

I dunno, once in college we got blitzed and went bowling. It was pretty entertaining until we got thrown out.

Congratulations Browns Fans! (I’m talking to you Brutus!) Good luck in January!

some sports channel probably does

College bowling would actually be more compelling than some of these bowls. How about The Upper Chagrin Falls Sani-Flush Bowl?

How ‘bout them Brownies Chip!!!!!

if they haven’t yet, they might later on. :D

I just go fishing. At least I get to see God’s creation all around me and teaching great grands the art of fishing. Even catching a little fish is big as a whale to them. A thing of beauty.

What’s with these Pro Bowlers playing football instead of bowling?

I miss College Bowl.

The kid is out of the loop….?

Yes, yes they do. And today they are televising Corn Hole.

Ok, embarrassing admission. Not being a sports fan I had to think about it for awhile before I understood the joke.

It was like when my daughter told she was going on a cruise with the Super Bowl Ring Steelers. And I was trying to understand why they were honoring thieves.

If it would sell, then of course.

He’s idea of sports is probably chess.

As Brutus is a big sports fan, I am surprised that his son is not more observant. I remember watching football as a child with my Dad alone and at times with my much older brothers on our Black and White TV as there was no color when I was growing up. While there may be more bowls, several have playoff implications. However , these games arei the last chance to make a good impression for next season. Watch away Brutus, I’m with you in Spirit. Go Notre Dame…..

Uncle Ted says “don’t lead Wilberforce astray Brutus, the college games are only on Saturday but the pro’s are on Sunday.” then he says to Wilberforce “wanna join us and learn something?”…

Wilberforce must be channeling Gracie Allen.
