Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for March 25, 2010

Cassie, Casssie, Cassie, you poor delousional tart! We’re tired of judgeing you as well! But, like a train wreck, it is hard to ignore! Steve, get the hell out of there and try to salvage any dignity you have left and let the cookie-eating Gil clean up the collective mess!

I see a future Jerry Springer show in the making.

Looks like Brenda is palming the ball in P3.

I assume the stands are practically empty because everyone is sitting at home, in their cars, or at The Bucket listening to Marty Moon’s insightful play-by-play and color commentary about the big game on WDIG.

Unfortunately, we readers are left with only our imaginations. Did Marty pass along any juicy rumors heard in the hallways about why Cassie did not show up for the game? Did he track down Cassie’s parents for a live on-air interview about their missing daughter? Did he observe that the janitor is also missing? What was his reaction to Mimi’s desperation move of starting Brenda at point guard in the second half? Did he find some way to blame all of this on Gil? C’mon, Rubin/Whigham, we want some Moon!!!

Seems as though Cassie and P-Boy planned this long before the season. And then along came Steve. The burning question is: will there be enough time for her to come to her senses, drive to the gym, get her uniform on, and save the game for good ole Milford? At least Mimi’s job isn’t on the line.

Mimi decided to put her center at point guard? What the?

Hi Cassie - thanks for the shout out in P2!!!!!

Love, thejudge

Another boring day of nothing happening in this strip. This usually happens when Rubin forgets where he was going with the story.

Excellent officiating by HooDad, but we also need to blow the whistle in p1 for elbowing. Looks like Mimi’s radical halftime decision is a bad one. And for Cassie, a lifetime of bad decisions, and she’s only 18.

In P1…..is the Tilden defender holding a backpack with her left hand?

What Cassie is doing is not that unusual though.

I can’t remember how many young women I’ve seen get turned down by a guy they like so they go enthusiastically running back to some loser who they dumped earlier.

Why do the number of freckles on that sweet thing change from day to day? I’ll chip in five bucks so she can shave her neck. I’ll throw in five more so Steve and Pizza Guy can shave their faces. A good health insurance plan might help Steve get some eyewear that will move him into the late 80s.

Okay, she does have a point there.

P3 in the background. The blonde chick is sucker punching that boy with dark hair. And while we’re at it. The girl from Tilden is ALSO sucker punching the girl from Milford in P3.

What’s causing all this violence in the GT strip?

Story line is meandering as much as a season of “Lost” or at least “Desperate Housewives.”

P3 – pretty sparse crowd for a title game.

I would think that even a teenager would know that getting the inspiration for your plans to win somebody over from soap operas is foolish.

Then it finally hits me as to where Cassie got this plan. It’s still unclear why she thinks it would work or why the writer would think a teenager would be that drunk on puppy love or that plain dumb. But as I said before, she’s not an academic all-American.

Please let Brenda save this game for Milford!

I know too many folks from Milford and she shows more poor judgment than most This gal will be lucky if her future holds sleeping in a trailor instead of sleeping under a bridge.

She’ll survive somehow barely. There several truckstops that alway need waitresses.

Janitor-guy run, do not walk, to the nearest exit.
