Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for June 13, 2022

Heather’s opening story line: The only starting pitcher Milford has not only cannot see, but does not even know he is not playing football.

This story line is a 3 run bomb.

“Bring in your family so I can get a nice picture of your dad… And a set of his fingerprints.”

In all reality , Heather , I’m not supposed to tell anyone this but my family and I are in the Witness Protection Program . We need to keep a low profile , I need you to keep this a secret. Can you do it ? Hell no Gregg or whatever your name is ! Sorry .

P3 Gregggg breaks into a cold sweat realizing that this story will now likely be extended another six to eight weeks as he and his family have to dodge Heather and her special interest story

Milford neck pain strikes again.

Sorry, Ms Burns, what you’re doing is intrusive.

Gillll looks sporty slapping high five’s wearing his new coaching glove

P1- Why is Gil wearing a batting glove high fiving Nomahhh? Wouldn’t it be great to see Dr. Pearl attending a game in her very own Granny Clampett rocking chair?

P-1: Gil has the white gloves, all he needs now is the black tie and tails

P-2: Heather assumes her most feminine pose for the interview.

P-3: “I’ll tell you a story, an old Wild West Story, a story that’s strange but true, and none can deny it, this Blog group will riot if this story line don’t end soon.”

P3: Yeah, let’s “connect” for a “feature story” next week. Two things: 1, my interest in this story line has piqued a little, and 2, we’re in for two more weeks (at least) of this crap.

Hang on. Did she miss the game where gave up 8 runs in 4 innings and got chased?

P 3: that’s code for “…let’s expose all this non-sense for what it is, publicly, with a news story, in both the online and bird cage liner versions…”

Meanwhile Heather misses out on the biggest sports story of the year, namely the mystery of the vanished softball team.

P3: So that’s what they are calling it these days “featured story”.

P 2.5: “…even a blind man could do it…”

“Oh, it’s not that impressive, Heather. Every once in a while even a blind squirrel will find some nuts.”

I’m sure his father will be very excited about a featured story next week.

The mob only reads featured stories. Move coming for the Hamster’s

P4- Let’s go back to your place right now and connect.

P 4 (Gregg’s voice): “…ok Mr. Moon…I look forward to it…”

I know Gil isn’t shy about his lack of enthusiasm for coaching his teams, but showing up to today’s game wearing his golf glove seems a bit rude. We get it, move the game along so that you can make your tee time. And speaking of tee times, it’s time for you to tee off with any criticism you might have about today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

So he was “forced” to abandon his pretending to be wild act, nothing is stopping the other team from constantly bunting on him again (except he made a play one time this season). Which means he’s pitching “normal”. And of course, dominating. So why the hell bother with all the other crap they’ve been doing since he’s so great?
