Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for April 19, 2014

The team has been very touchy-feely the last few days with the patty-cakes and the hair-tousles and the belly rubs. Guess that’s what winning does to you.

Kaz’s mullet is morphing into a version of the Carol Brady shag.

And what the heck is on Paul Dillon’s glove, some kind of shin guard?

Kaz is king of the high 5, he’s happy to see that Gil is resurrected just in time for Easter.

In all reality, is that a troll or a shunken head Kaz has on his left shoulder in P 3 ?

The way this storyline is tracking, could this finally be the year the Mudlarks finally……….?Jack

Don’t forget, tomorrow is part 2 of the exclusive limited run of Mopped Up Thorp Sunday edition. Will be posted early tomorrow or maybe even late tonight. Will post at the bottom of today’s comments when it’s up.

Good thing Lucky stopped that hot smash in P2. If he hadn’t, it would’ve been a ground-rule double considering that the fence is only about twenty feet behind him.

Why did Gil come back anyway? I thought the team was playing well without him.

Mullets all around!B. Jovi

chiphilton- and is Lucky wearing a first baseman’s glove to play third? Boy, he is lucky.

I think we need a Marty Moon drunken rant to liven up this storyline. We need some tension, for gosh sakes.

Hoping for a great season for lefty Paul Dillon. Daddy Matt has trouble making games, He’s an Outsider. With MHS being a small school, QB Mike Hayes should be on the baseball team. That is, the gritty, gutty, tougher than a $2 steak Mike Hayes.

Do theoretical grownups do that many high-fives?Next, they’ll turn around and bump butts.

Okay………. the guy on the right in panel 3 is Coach Kaz. Who’s that other dude with him?

Is it me? Is it me? Am I in the basement?

Tune in next week……….. same “MOP” time…………..same “MOP” channel!
