    Sleazy producer/director could pass for Gil’s long lost brother. . . Or son.

    Damn, Marty’s broadcast booth is pretty high up. How is it he’s never broken his neck stumbling out of there all these years? And what happened to the eight foot cameraman from the other day?

    Poor Gil isn’t having much luck avoiding the cameras. That’s the peril of being a State Champion Coach.

    Thanks Neal. For giving this season’s punching bag a name. Alan “Disco” Mayne, long lost brother of ESPN’s Kenny Mayne. Keep prodding our hero with no luck. Next tactic is too predictable. Marty loosens his tongue over a liquid lunch with Dora.

    Think how much more work Alan could get done if he’d just let that suit walk by itself. Did Milford Air lose his and Holly’s luggage?

    To paraphrase Ron Burgandy, “Stay classy, Gil.”

    In all reality, this storyline ends with a sobbing Holly appologizing to Gik, Marty,Mimi,and her students for all the embarassment , conflict and pain she has caused them. Holly will say It was never her intent ,Signman will hold up a sign You Suck.

    How about a Gil/Marty charity boxing match? Marty falls flat on his face and is counted out as soon as they lift him off his stool in the corner

    What happened to coaches saying, “I never listen to the what the media says.”? Instead you have Gil and Mimi tuning in to Marty’s rants every night. And speaking of rants, I’ll go off on a wild rant if you don’t read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

    P2- Gil looking like a young Fred Gwyne circa “Car 54”.

    Elliot Mayne or Irwin Mainway shilling for his “Big Bag O’ Glass”?

    Looks like the plot is clearing up, Dora stirs up stuff between Marty and Gil with hopes of getting it on camera. Gil fends off the stuff about football, but it boils over when Marty brings up that Gil and Holly were once a hot item and asking if Mimi’s cool about it. Gil confronts Moon and it’s caught on hidden camera. Season blows up, students turn on Dora and the fun keeps going

    In all reality, has anyone considered that maybe another actress is playing the role of Holly and Gil Marty Mimi and all of Milford is being filmed for the reality show Punked ?

    @ Mr Reality: in this case not punked but puked!

    In panel three Gil is the ‘anti’ Gary Cooper.

    20 posts is the sign of a meandering plot! Over the past year, Gil has seen somewhere between 28-35 posts to what, I feel is the best “cartoon” along side Calvin & Hobbs.Neil, Rod… You guys are the best and keep up the good work.Tod
