Dad will be disappointed…

So might Lewreader. Cartoon Logic can have various twists and turns; that’s the beauty of it…

Uh, would that be the fact that no one in the family (not just Dad, Paige) has an athletic gene in his or her body?

JOHANAN A tornado could sweep away half the team and the couch could be forced to put Peter in. Remember what kind of logic we’re dealing with. I mean Paige could end up playing.

I’d like to see Peter’s team play Charlie Brown’s team.

Yep, dad’s pretty clueless!

Start a meth lab in the dugout, Pete. The reality series ensues: “Breaking Bats”.

I think that the coach would put Quincy on the field before Peter.

Concur - I’d like to see Charlie Brown’s team play Peter’s. It’d would be an fair contest, even though Peter’s team is a High School team and Charlie Brown’s is grammar school.

i’ve read this story in a book collection. lewreader will be disapointed with the cartoon logic in this one.

and that is the breadwinner of this family

That’s the point, nighthawks – he couldn’t earn it, he had to win it!

I third: Peter’s team vs. Charlie Brown’s. Although I suspect the other players on Peter’s team are pretty good… can’t quite say the same for CB’s (especially not the outfield!)
