Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for September 02, 2019

True, oh True, we hardly knew ye …

P1, Oh, Il is slingin’ bull alright, Marjie.

P2, And we really had to fight to keep Tiki on the team.

P3, Chris really strongarms those other kids in the showers, too.

P2: Leonard Fleming. Unusual name.

P2: A dozen eggs, gallon of milk…

5’8" Hiawatha James is still here at Milford? Did Gil redshirt him when we weren’t paying attention?

In all reality , A non football question Why does Charlie call his Dad , Chet , what do your kids call you Gil ?

P4: “… is it true that Thomas Jansen does not live in the Milford school district legally?…”

P1: Gil breaking out the custom mug given tp him by the former Supreme Leader of North Korea during a tournament in the early nineties…

P3: a decidedly older looking Gil, a Craig T Nelson lookalike… I know I have seen this panel before, maybe as the old “ brief time out for a Happy Labor Day” or something like that…

Stay tuned for Roh vs. Macy controversy that peaks in showdown game vs. Tech.

Marjie wants to get it right for her Penny Saver article

The Letterman, Fabian and Rickey Nelson will be at the Bonfire this year!

Ruck Roh

Hiawatha James? How about Geronimo Jones and Pocahontas Smith getting some reps?

In typical Milford fashion, douchey uses a note pad rather than a smart phone to record her interview

Just a quick timeout before the guy with the whip gets back to this side of the room to wish all of you a happy Labor Day, from me and Keri. From here overseas, where every day is “labor day”, but not in a good way.

Looky there, Charlie is in Gil’s plans, he even got mentioned as a strength. Once Chet reads this in the Milford Times/Gazette/Daily/whatever he should be satisfied, yes? No, of course not, otherwise that’s the end of the suspenseful drama that’s already been created. And speaking of suspense, I’m not holding you in suspense any longer wondering when today’s edition of Mopped Up Thorp will be available. It’s here!

Now this is a real HS football story.

Hmm. Maybe Charlie will be switched to fullback, fulfilling the dreams of Pelwicki, or Gil will bring back the wishbone! News of it just coming to Milford…

OK, I forgot to read this until just now and I don’t see anyone commenting on what Marjie is writing. Jethro Brunf?

The best since True Standish?
