Did he call Zonker a dummy? Maybe he meant BD.

They have to blow the whistle to go to commercial.

Ah, Sports-ball… I do not even like the sports-ball of my own country.

Zip doesn’t look that beefy to be a football player. He needs pounds of steroids.

Weekday strips are reruns, but I wonder if the Sunday one will depict M’Lord Zonker attending the coronation of King Charles III (and Queen Camilla—UGH!!).

Some of my favorite strips were of Zonker in his starred helmet in the huddle with BD and the other players!

Yup, football’s easy and a great way to scramble your brain.

Something about Zipper’s comment on learning how to play football is off-putting to me….

Just wait until one of those dummies turns you into AstroTurf, and you’ll find out how hard it is.You’re right though, Zip…most of them are dummies.

I’ll bet the kid could indeed be every bit the football hero Zonk was.

I MADE A FREAKIN’ TOUCHDOWN<JOANIE!!

A great analogy for life in general, Zonker.

This explains a lot.
