Dum-de-dum-DUM..P4: “Well, Coach Thorp, you haven’t coached the boys a lick in months, so I have to do it for you. Here’s your damn towel.”.FREE LUMPY!
Max blew one game (which Bobby didn’t predict) and then had two bad games in a row, plus he had at least one other bad game earlier in the season. How is correctly predicting that he’d have two bad games in a row “spooky” or evidence of insider information? It’s called a slump.
Gil has morphed into Sgt. Carter from “Gomer Pyle, USMC” in P3. And did anyone else think that Mimi was saying she heard something “Ooo” at first glance?
As the Thorp’s nurse their Long Island Teas, Mimi tells Gil she heard something odd at practice, “Whose that older lady? Wasn’t she our coach when this train wreck of a season started?” P3- Did you know I won a State Football Championship last Fall? There’s something going on and you’re going to tell me about it. NOW. Or later.
In reality , Ok Gil heres the deal , Max is addicted to drugs , I m his source. I can control his performance level. Shut up and bet the games the way I tell you. You won T even need your pension.
Hey, Mop. Missed your question yesterday. At the risk of starting another round of comments about 88, the answer is it’s calendar days in the real world. Don’t know how to calculate time in the Giliverse.
I like Gil’s four-inch stack of papers. My guess is it’s a rough draft of his acceptance speech for the “coach of the year” award he anticipates getting at the conference banquet in June.

“I know when Max will have a bad game because I actually pay attention to the basketball team. Now just go home and drink your highball, Coach.”

Who the hell are you and where do you get off talking like that to a “Big Time” coach like me, and my puppet.

You can tell by the folded edges of the frame in P2 that it is a flashback #observant

In P1, what Gil means is “It’s odd that you were at practice.”

Fourth panel, Bobby and Max in unison, with glazed eyes: “Yes, master, we will obey.”
