Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for March 12, 2014

Yes Cassie your girls might want to stick around so we can rub it in their faces that we never took them seriously and spent our practice time rehearsing this…..

Darn, I was hoping they would have to scrub the mission.

Fake a medical emergency.

Gil called the 911 folks earlier:This is Gil Thorp. You know I’m the athletic director at Milford High School.If you get a call from the stadium this evening, just ignore it.

I hope the dude with the striped tie and 50s hair pretending to look at his laptop is going to participate.

Let’s move on to sports with less drama.

If this is the last game of the season (missed playdowns again), then why would this show be necessary?

This is painful.

How am I going to top this?

In all reality , Wendy says Coach I feel like ridding the earth of scum like Keegan Hershey , bring him in girls so we can humiliate him before we dispose of him like the piece of garbage he is. Sorry for the mess Mop Man .

WTF?? Flash mob? This strip cannot suck enough. Thank God for Mop.

Meanwhile….Pedro scrubs the barnacles from the Thorp Estate pool, knowing he is one day closer to making Mimi’s mojitoes.

Who’d have thought Mopped Up Thorp would be more believable than the original?

“I feel like a natural woman…”“Woman”You make me feel…You make feel…

or—I feel the earth move under me feet…

I feel like Dancing, Dancing

What’s with the kid cracking up in P3? Nothing has happened yet…not that anything ever does in this strip…

Oh, please don’t break out into…THRILLER

The plot lines lately are sapping the life force out of my smart-ass gene. Who would have thought that golf lessons by John Jawor or a magical peacock would have been high points?

Can we have a Moon incident to liven things up this spring?

I was going to complain again about this inane storyline, but have to admit Rubin and Whigham sure give us plenty of material. Thanks for taking it to a new level, Mopman.

“I feel, I feel, …these writers have no idea how teenagers talk or act post 1970. So we’ll dance!”

Is Milford now an all female school? Seems like I recall at one time there was a male athletic program and a coach named Gil or something like that.

I feel… I feel… I feel like whipping off my uniform and dancing in my Molly Kinsella cardboard bikini! Roll the cameras!

Today’s Mopped Up Thorp has a revised ending. I had a revelation for a better ending so I changed it. Wendy didn’t look much like John Travolta anyway.

Really important point here. This cannot be the end of basketball season. Baseball and softball do not start in Milford until May or June. Heck, it isn’t even preseason in Milford. There has to be a prolonged “storyline” for the boys’ team. If the basketball season ends with this, are we going to be subjected to endless weeks of a story that transpires completely in the weight room?

In all reality . What if Wendy is really going into cardiac arrest , will the mission get scrubbed or will baseball practice just start as scheduled ?
