What does this chump think his bargaining position is? True’s enrolled at Milford. At this point, if he transfers mid-semester, most states don’t allow eligibility for a new team. Either he takes whatever number he’s given or he loses an entire season of football.
That’ll be a fun conversation. “Jarrod, I’m taking your position as starting quarterback. Oh, and I’m taking your uniform number, too. See you at the Copywrite Cafe, Buddy.”
Today’s final comment today elicited, ‘Here we go.’ Which recalled the older lady’s reaction (“Here we go.”) to Julia Roberts’ character,Grace, in Something to Talk About: “Yeah, I just want to ask how many people here has NOT had sex with my husband?”
“Art, I haven’t won diddly squat in years around this place and they still won’t fire me, so let me tell you just how concerned I am about your negotiations.”
In all reality, Thursdays strip will feature Saad breaking the news to Jarrod that True wants his number. It happens that Saad was under Gils desk during Arts negotiations .
Not sure what kind of a “brand” Tru(e) has being that he’s only played 2 years of high school football, but we know it can’t compete with the MUT brand.
“You’re right, Pops. It IS nonnegotiable. This is MY town. I make a phone call, and some Mudlark booster will Gillooly your boy into a career at Wal-Mart, capisce?”
Looking forward to Art and Wildcat getting together and finally convincing Gil to “retire” so Todd Andrews can be brought back to coach the ‘Larks. Gil just doesn’t have the fire in any job, witness his half-ass instruction of the kids program at Milford CC.
I said this earlier and will repeat it here. Art needs to be strapped to a chair and forced to watch “THE BOOK OF MANNING”. Good advice there on how to raise athletes!
tcar, I have great respect for your intuitive comments….except when you allowed the stray cat back recently. Nevertheless, I would resign from any company that denied my MUT! Do not allow this punitive action!

Gee, what a surprise, an unruly dad. Umm, you’d think this character would have already figured out that Gil won’t give in to silly demands.

In all reality, Gil shows Art that he knows Russian sign language and says NYET ( NO ) in P 1.

True has the number 7 branded on him? Those “M” tattoos that the basketball team got will look puny by comparison.

Art Standish somehow changed from a solid tie to a striped one since he entered Gil’s office in Saturday’s strip.

Looks like there’s a framed picture of a girl in a bikini behind Art’s left shoulder and I’m pretty sure it’s not Mimi.

Also, True will require three chilled bottles of Hoo in the locker room before every game!

Art: If you don’t comply and give True his Jack Daniels Old #7, we’ll pack up and drive to Hawaii.

What does it matter? We know from the earlier strip no one in Milford can count anyway.
