P3 — “Now comes the challenge. I’m being shown an alternate way to beat the current level of World of Warcraft. Oh! Is there a football game out on the field?”
Do we know anything about Milford’s defensive line? We know they have good running backs, which won’t matter a bit if there is no defense against a strong passing game.
Battle for the Valley: Air Jimmy vs. Ground Gil! Will Gil keep looking to Woody Hayes for inspiration, or bring A Load Of Rapp in to try and cover the spread?
P1: “Look sharp! There’s some guy from Norway in the stands looking for a ‘Twelfth Man!’ And pretend that ball is a loofah and pound it as hard as you can!”
P3: Meanwhile, at the Milford Home For The Terminally Decrepit, Marty’s key audience is intently listening. One of the residents is on the floor, having fallen out of his walker desperately trying to change the channel.
“Eh? What’s he saying?”
“He said a change is coming”.
“Eh?”
“HE SAID A CHANGE IS COMING!”
“A change? Does Nurse Ratched have to change us already?”
“NO! IN SOME KINDA SPORT! I THINK THAT IT’S BOWLING!”
If they were playing Canadian rules, the 12th man is normally a fifth player in the secondary, usually a cornerback. Passing situations normally add a sixth in coverage at the expense of a linebacker. The 13th man is recognized as fans in attendance at Mosaic Stadium in Regina.
P1- Who is this Mudlark suffering from the latest bout with melting face? Trainer Rick Scott better check his salt tablet inventory.
P2- Ground control to Coach GilPa. You’ve really made the grade.
P3- Who or what is Air Jimmy? Sounds to good to be True. Speaking of True, has he finished his voluntary rehab? How come Thorp hasn’t put him on the coaching staff?
See, now Will shows what a leader he is! He is basically repeating Gil’s game strategy to his team as if it’s a great plan that Will just came up with. His analogies are horrible though, nobody refers to the offense as the “twelfth man” for the defense. Especially since there’s 11 of them. Plus, his plan failed, Madison’s offense is now on the field.
And speaking of eleven, you don’t have to wait until 11:00 to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp, because it’s available right now!
Great news Milford! True got called up to the Show! I’m pretty sure I saw True’s cardboard head in the stands during the Rays game last night. Gil will probably use this nugget as part of his halftime talk.
Number 64 looks like he’s getting ready to sit on the toilet. Reminds me of Jeff Bagwell stepping into the batter’s box. Or as George Carlin used to say don’t take one of mine I only have two left for the weekend!

P4: “Go Jimmy Go”. Rapp in at safety, like Sammy Baugh or Tony Dunge?

In all reality , it takes Air Jimmy one play to torch the Milford secondary and the score is tied 7 / 7 .

P1, That sounds like a penalty waiting to happen.
P2, This is as close to looking like an actual football play R&W have ever drawn.
P3, And speaking of 84, I rang up an .84 on the ol’ Breathalyzer last night!
