Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for November 20, 2024

Some hold that baseball is a combination of the Irish game Hurling and the British game rounders.

More interesting, and yet more time-consuming than cricket itself, would be a game where the object is to explain the game of cricket to someone.

Fun fact: the Dutch name for baseball is honkbal. But don’t tell Bucky!

Televised baseball games have to be slow, so there’s enough time for all the commercials.

Try to explain to a novice why when you miss the ball it is a strike, and when you miss the ball it’s a ball !

Bucky conceding a point to Satchel? We’re down a rabbit hole.

He has obviously never been introduced to golf.

Oh come on the whole key to baseball is that its boring, therefore you barely have to pay attention!!

Soccer features constant activity without result. Kind of an inside out baseball then….?

Is that a VCR in the second panel?

“The Krikkit Wars are tastelessly commemorated by two sports; cricket of Earth and Brockian Ultra-Cricket of some of the higher dimensions.” Fandom

Love chew in the baseball player’s cheek.

“Pickleball,” maybe? To say that someone is in a “pickle” means that (s)he is stumped or in a state of indecision or trouble.

Bucky actually complimented Satchel?? What is this, “Bizarro Get Fuzzy”?

Cricket (of Earth) and Brockian Ultra-Cricket of some of the higher dimensions – tastelessly commemorating the Krikkit Wars of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Well, the name "foot"ball doesn’t really turn me on, but different strokes for different folks, I guess…

Baseball is actually derived from a British game called rounders.
