Steve’s part in his hair is so low, I think the final reveal in this storyline will be that he’s been completely bald since he was seven years old. And after he realized his high school helmet hairpiece was woefully out of date, he needed an upgrade in style…However, he couldn’t afford a new wig on a janitor/assistant coach/newspaper editor/general creepy meddler’s salary, so he had to go with the comb-over.
How is “bald people” a final reveal in a Gil Thorp storyline? I dunno, but it worked before, right?

In a striking blow to equality in women’s sports, Neal Rubin shows that spending an entire week on the girl’s basketball game is exactly as boring as when he does it for a boy’s game.
2/19 P1…I did not notice until now that Cassie had a seal flipper instead of a left arm……..

Steve-o is going to get chewed out by Mimi in tomorrow’s strip, Cassie is going to overhear, and then Cassie is going to have to “comfort” Steve.
I can only hope then that Hadley V. Baxendale provides a beatdown on Cassie!

Knoxy, Cassie may have a seal flipper now, but she used to have a pizza flipper! [rim shot] Thank you! Thank you!

P3: Cassie: You nail this one, Ashley! Let’s slam the door on these guys!
Ashley: Whatever, but if you nail that tacky-coated cheap-toup’ed mop jockey after the game you’ll slam the door on any modicum of respect in this lousy tank town!

Is this a new thing or what?
Did anybody notice that in 2/18 panel 3 Cassie is shooting with her eyes closed…
As a follow up I noticed in 2/19 all the panels have at least one closed-eyed girl…

Cassie needs to do something about that deformity.

Oh Regina you did that on purpose, didnt you? I dont see any evidence of baldness on Steve, but I know the ref is supposed to hand you the ball to shoot foul shots, not your teammate. Also I love the spacing in P3. They’re so close, they each have 1 hand on the ball.
