    The only championship Milford can win these days is the Fulmer Cup.

    Ric’s grandmother was Peggy DeVore, the night club singer played by Mamie Van Doren in Teacher’s Pet opposite Clark Gable.

    Panel 3 — Sure, you’ve got a headache. Tense, nervous, irritable. But don’t take it out on the kids.

    Why is it that we never see Cortez Beecher whenever they lose?

    Gil started the game wearing a suit and now he’s slippped into his Hefner-style lounging robe for hanging around the locker room with the boys.

    Parker is full of Senioritis advice. “Ric, let’s go see my friend Random Task and he’ll make it all better. The Bucket? The Bucket’s for wimps.”

    P1 – I’ll give the artist credit for the great form Ric is showing at the line.P2 – If there was no time left on the clock (since the game is over before the ball lands), nobody should be lined up except the shooter.P3 – “Thanks for the pep talk coach, now can you close the stall door so I can have some privacy?”

    Time to go see Ransom and find out how to put your life back together. A new tat and a bootleg video will sooth any pain.

    Is Ric suffering from the same fierce case of head lice that sidelined Lini?

    Oh, if only Lini would have gotten his flu shot over by the Walgreens. For the want of a nail…

    Two of you think that’s Gil in P3, two think it’s Parker. I’ll break the tie and say it’s Parker. He’ll tell him “you’ll forget this game but I’ll be stuck with these stupid tats forever!”

    Perhaps this was all part of Gil’s master plan: Get Lini sick… CHECK. Substitue Ric and get him to blow the game… CHECK and CHECK. Get Parker to counsel Ric… CHECK. Now, the next step can be either Parker becoming more responsible and therefore Gil’s job is done, or Parker goes down the wrong path and takes Ric to Ransom, then Gil can catch him in the act and teach him a valuable lesson.

    Should’ve shot his free throws underhand, like Ollie from “Hoosiers.”

    Isn’t Ric a sophomore? Even at Milford, a sophomore wouldn’t be 18 years old yet, so I don’t think Parker will be bringing him to see Ransom.
