Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 22, 2013

In panel 3 it is clear that the Mauler is “seeing the light”and heading towards it. Wonder if Gil knows CPR and if so will that be enough to overcome an upcoming heart attack?

A first for Gil and the student body, watch a human die in the flesh. Cant wait to see how the heart beats will be shown.Balloons with "thump thump,,,,,,,,,thump,,,,thump -—————-?

Oh well, its Cross Country time at M.H.S., go team!

Since the end wasn’t worked out in advance, maybe Gil is genuinely unconscious.

Sportsguy—Mucho kudos man! You nailed it with yesterday’s clothesline call !!!

Two a days start on Monday. Lord knows what that storyline will be… I’m thinking a blind Q back.

Mimi sat this one out at poolside. Pedro makes a killer Sangria. Wonder which local charity is the beneficiary of this “fundraiser?”

So was Gil really a wrestler in a prior life? That is a pretty good looking fall he’s taking in P1.

What? No kickout? There is always at least a couple of kickouts just before the third count to prevent the pin before the match ends.

Are we done yet?

Gil lost. There’s a phrase that’s become pretty common in Milford over the last five years.

How do you spell “Chiropractor” ? Gil is going to need one after the match.

Gil is invited to meet with the school board before the season starts.

School Board (to Gil): We’ve asked you here to discuss your recent going ons. To recap for you Gil:-On field performance: Dismal…haven’t seen the playdowns since we don’t know when. This includes all major sports.-Home performance: It’s been brought to our attention that you don’t know where your kids are. Mimi doesn’t come to your events, leaving us to believe there is trouble at home. -Unauthorized events at the school, where exchange of money is involved. $5/head? Possible heart attack candidate rolling around on the mat? Who insured this event? Who said it was okay?

We’ve stories of peacocks and children born out of wedlock…who is running the show, Gil? And who the heck is Pedro?

I’m very disappointed that the Von Erich brothers did not make a cameo. At least the Mauler could have used the “Claw” to show his respect for real wrestling villains .

Our two a days started Monday. MHS is a week behind. We’re gonna kick some Milford butt this year.

Chop Oakwood!

You know, George “The Animal” Steele’s day job was as a gym teacher. I only mention this because it’s more interesting than this storyline.

From the looks of P3 I think the gym is haunted…..

Does this mean Beau won’t be advancing to the playdowns?

Just looked at P2 again and realized Herk was delivering the Joe “Willie” Namath line to Beau Gil . . . “I wanna kiss you.”

That Beau is a Dandy. Deep thinker too. Ready for Brody Abro taking on a larger role this footbal season.

In all reality. Get the paddles ready and stand clear , Gil s not getting up.
