Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for October 16, 2021

Is panel 1 like the movie “Pleasantville” where some characters are in Black/White and others are in color? Is panel 2 Gilpa or Don Knotts as the TV repairman?

(Mostly) Everybody Wang Chung tonight.

It’s called Listerine and it comes in a bottle

Which problem? Biggest problem I see is Tevin’s jerk ‘friend’ who keeps putting him down.

P4: The solution involves me transferring to Valley Modified. Seems somebody ratted me out for carrying a flamethrower, er, I mean a book of matches, to the Milford bonfire. Your problems are solved!

I love the walk-on in P1: “Wait, what? This is it? I’m confused. I’m here for a close-up in Gil Thorp??? I’m going to kill my agent! When he told me to make myself look like a high-school football fan and get down to the field, I thought it was for a close-up in Archie!”

I’m impressed The State Champion Coach is putting the hammer down and crushing the Valley. Gil knows he has to outscore the damn choke that everybody tells him is coming soon. Bill Belichik mentioned in one of his press conferences that " Coach Thorp knows the T-wing at a higher level."

P4,Tevin – “Oh yeah, what’s my problem you stupid loud- mouthed tool? I’m gonna take your used loofah, jam it in your noisy yap and shut you up, that will fix it.”

Oh come on, Gil! Enough with the cliché coachspeak. Goshen is garbage, your team creams them every year, it’s the one gimme on your schedule.

We have to wait a couple of days, but is this the point where Boyd pushes his luck too far? Another ridiculous putdown of Tevin’s choking (of which he has actually done NONE of so far), which leads to Chance going blowtop mad all over his skinny ass. This results in Chance breaking his hand over Boyd’s skull, knocking him out for the rest of the season. No title, no second place!

And speaking of no second place, Mopped Up Thorp would never dream of finishing that low.

And what’s with the “few tense moments” crap? You mean because they were down 7-0 with 95% of the game left? Or was it because of the interception when they were up by at least 2 touchdowns and it didn’t affect the game one damn bit?

P-1: A young appearance for half of “Hart”.

P-2: Gil is practicing his ventriliquizism skills for his retirement hobby.

p-3: (with a nod to Pro from Dover) It’s called Irish Spring and girls love it, too.

Now we need to know how many tense moments Gil feels is the ideal amount.

Tense doesn’t begin to describe the situation in Milford, OH as the Eagles were stunned at home and fall to a pedestrian 5 – 4 overall and 4 – 3 in the Valley (Eastern Cincinnati Conference), clinching at least no better or worse than fourth in the Valley as Lebanon wins 24 -20 moves to 2 – 6 overall (2 – 5 in the Valley)

P1.5- Thank goodness Robert Howry was able to supply Rick Scott with the “calm” pills before the game.

In all reality, Tev I found the solution for your problem. You buy it from the gypsy with the gold tattoo at 34th and Vine, Love Potion Number Nine !

I see Heather is giving the evil eye to the ( in color no less, the bitch!) girl photobombing the live-stream Heather has going out to her Heather Does Milford audience.

P 1: “… oh hi there everyone!…. Let’s see what interesting stuff Heather is asking coach thorp…”

Can somebody help me figure out the symbolism, if any, of the color scheme in P1???
