    With a shot like that in P1, Rodney better stick to football. That basket is either one of those 8 foot elementary school baskets or Rodney had one hell of a growth spurt since yesterday. And is that the original Naismith fruit basket? That sure doesn’t look like a net. Or Annette for you old Mickey Mouse Club fans. Finally, who is door(k) # 3, Sedrick’s dad?

    The soundtrack for P3 includes “Cold Sweat” by James Brown and “Fat” by Weird Al Yankovich.

    The 2 old (and out of shape) tools look to be Rodneys uncle and his stooge friend! This plot is getting to the point that I kinda miss Marti Moon who rumor has it is living in his crap- shak press box having turned it into a tiki- bar for the summer!Rod & Todd

    In all reality , meanwhile back in Milford the caddies walk out on strike on the day of the Husband / Wife Scramble . Gil is no where to be found. Mimi says she’s cold while sitting at the Thorp pool and Pedro says" Si, I warm you up ! Boo considers becoming an Airborne Ranger .

    So Rodney is back home in Orlando? Hence the lovely palm trees and oppressive humidity creating a Milford staple, The Melting Face. P1- Rodney is paying homage to Pistol Pete by wearing gray floppy socks.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll probably say it again: Whigham doesn’t draw sweat beads well. They look more like acne or tiny noses growing on the characters’ faces. And where’d the sweat come from in P3? It wasn’t there in P2. If we can spot all these inconsistencies, why doesn’t Whigham; it’s his job, after all. And don’t get me started on how he draws shoes. Those Adidas in P1 are totally deformed. (And you guys thought all I could do was count things.)

    No doubt about it. If Rodney wants to improve his brand, he’s going to need a better entourage.

    I think Sedrick is back in Fort Worth. That guy is a relative of Rodney’s, we think his uncle. Lastly, my daughters tell me Oriental is no longer acceptable — Asian is what’s used.
