In a lot of places, they’ll let you check into jail on the weekends, like Otis from Andy Griffith, so you can keep your job at least. I’d be shopping for a new lawyer, Del. Better get in touch with Marty. Plenty of prominent hands in the first 2 panels.
From the size of that helmet in P3, Gil must have added Barry Bonds to the roster. I wonder if anybody in The Valley will notice. Only May 4th and Milford is playing the opener already. This must be a new record. Nice shine on that locker room floor, too Mop Man.
In all reality , P 1 Mr Bader gets serious and pulls hips clown o se off. P 4 just wondering Mop is it hard to move Gil’s recliner when you polish the floor by the showers ?
On April 26th, didn’t a chubby faced Del advise Master Bader that he could be twice as tough and never give an inch. Famous last words prior to hitting the showers.
Well that’s some natural dialog. “We’d like to play our season opener now.” And who’s the manager for the team? He’s slacking, the game is about to start and bats and helmets are still in the locker room. Gil won’t stand for this. Oh wait, he’s probably not even at the game. And speaking of standing, today’s Mopped Up Thorp stands on its own as a model of top notch journalism.
Gil’s strategy is that by playing their season opener when other teams are starting to wrap up the season, Milford will be the last team left standing at the end!
OOooo OOooo let me try!! Judge “Hang ’em Hiatt” is also the head of the Goshen Clowns Athletic Supporters. She strikes a deal with Del to bring down the corrupt Thorp/Milfordsports cabal with information gathered by Master Bader.Hijinx ensue.
Also nice to see Milford carrying on the tradition of the motorized bullpen cart with the large cap for a roof.

Often these new stories start out full of promise and we’ve got a good month or so before they inevitably fall flat. Then there’s this one…

“Squabbling?” Is that the new slang for (ahem) … urrr … (gulp) … shower activities?

Not only two weeks in jail, Mr. Bader, but you won’t pass Go and you won’t collect $200, either.

Squabbling: Def. from the Latin Squabbus, to have unnatural relations with small birds. (orange sauce optional)
