Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 16, 2018

“Hello, Milford. This is Marty Moon, coming direct to you from the ‘Chicken Coop’ above the field! Now a word from our sponsor, ‘Jack Daniels’ and a free swig for me! Are we off the air? Glug, glug! If only they would build me a REAL press box, argh! I’ve been on this strip since…um, anyone know? You’d think I’d get ‘something’ better than this plywood shipping crate!”

Can someone please explain the P1 art? There’s one official on the far left and one crouching on the right. So far so good. But there are 2 more feet facing left and either a very fat official behind the chain or 2 officials standing really close together sharing a set of feet.

Jefferson player is demonstrating that new dance craze, the fair catch.

P1, How many refs does it take to mark the line of scrimmage?

P2, A tight game, and Marty has his sippy cup and his flask ready for any outcome.

P3, The Jeffs punter returner, Lobster Boy, has no choice but to wave for a fair catch. Or is he doing the Funky Chicken?

In all reality , did you know that Jefferson High School is named after George Jefferson ,a successful small business man and not Thomas Jefferson as most people assume .

I believe Rod Whigham is constantly amused by our witty banter. In P2, Marty’s eyes resemble road maps like in MUT.

What yard line Marty??

P 3: The punt returner shows his homage to the U. of Florida and does the ‘gator chop’.

“a solid punt and the Jeffs take over trailing 21-20….hic….good thing coach Kaz is a film buff, …hic…else they might never have found someone …hic…to make that solid punt, buurrrppp…”

P3: Player tries to get Marty’s attention to show him who will be catching the ball.

I don’t trust that first down measurement. How do you know they’re putting the yard marker in the right place, since it’s not connected to any chain? And it’s blatantly obvious there is no chain in the color version.
