Looks like P3 is already displaying what Max’s new name will be when the green M&M finally kicks in and he tosses the ball into the stands, being distracted by Gilfather’s smartphone showing the newest Wendy Wiley video.
In all reality , Max cross over dribbles to his right , cuts and begins to drive unfortuunately Max runs into the handle the writers carelessly drew in P 3 and knocks himself out. Can Bobby come up with something to give Max to clear his head ? Stay tuned.
Antoine Reed is proof that wristbands make the player. Look what they did for the great Rick Barry. Great early commentary GilFanatics, especially The Brown Starfish
They’ll have to go to Downtown Kenny Brown for the last shot. It’s clear from P1 that someone super-glued Max’s middle and ring fingers together…..hence the claw in P3.
Milford has not been shown losing a game. So how does the winner of this game lead the league since Milford beat Jefferson earlier? I’ll give Bitsy props right now for correctly predicting the ending since there is no way Max doesn’t hit Brown for the game winner after the advice given to him by the coaches towel boy.Is Gil out of his mind? 30 seconds left and down by 1 you don’t go for the last shot. You shoot early and if you miss you foul and get the ball back down by no more than 3 with another chance to win/tie. Gil has been away from the game for too long, Bobby wouldn’t make this stupid mistake.Props to The Brown Starfish, in honor of his contributions to the ridicule of this strip, today he gets immortalized in an edition of Mopped Up Thorp!

Reed is displaying a truly bizarre shooting form. No way the ball gets to the basket with his hands where they are.

I’m going to go waaaaay out on a limb here and say Ken Brown takes the last shot.

Tru(e) dat chiphilton. I thought he was rebounding. The good news is Marty’s back, doing his best Gary Owens impression. One less missing Milfordian.

When did Max become Lobster Boy? And is the scoreboard in P3 showing his new nickname after shooting an air ball with that right claw?

Tom Brady would never throw an air ball.

Maybe today will be the day that the streak of comments about placebos ends. I hope nobody mentions placebos.

Reed’s ability to make awkward, physically impossible shots is why he’s all-league, man.

Reed’s awkward shot may be due to the fact that it looks like the game is being played on the Milford ice rink

Moon’s appearance means I can remove him from my count and rename it: Women Held Hostage: Day 71 for Mimi; Day 10 for Ducey.

Being a ‘train nut’ I couldn’t help but notice the grab iron on the caboose that is evidently just out of the picture in panel three.

Mop, I’m humbled and honored. I bow to the beast.
