Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 17, 2011

Hope Charlie Brown has an alternate plan available.

so now throw a fast ball that will be a real curve ball

Throw a slerve…..after you get Lucy with some high heat.

the next pitch should be at Lucy.

This is what happens when you trust Lucy. The football thing should have taught him that.

Now, thanks to big mouth, the whole neighborhood knows.

hi

hi

hi

Lucy! Go home!

I don’t think it matters. Charlie Brown’s never gotten a pitch past a batter yet.

Why didn’t he ever get other players?

Next panel CB throws a ball that comes right back to him. :)

poor ol’ Charlie Brown…The story of his life is a lot like mine…

Time to bring in Linus

Lucy, you blockhead!

So, what’s the B plan Charlie?

First, she yanks the football. Now, she yanks the curve ball. Sheesh!

lol

Wow. Somebody ought to explain to Lucy that the batter isn’t supposed to know what the next pitch is going to be.

Lucy better make the catch…
