The big mouth of the omega male

Filed under: actual action, Gil Thorp, Just plain sad — jasbeattie @ 8:09 am

Gil saves the day for poor li’l Stevie. And so, with one alpha male safely pinning down another, omega male Steve inexplicably continues to be a dick by talking more smack to Ray. At this point, if Gil was any kind of man himself, he’d release the pizza flipper and let him finish off Steve for calling him “sport.”

But since Coach Thorp would rather not lose a guy who coaches for free, he keeps Ray pinned down. If only Cassie would explain to him that he’d get free pizzas instead of free coaching, maybe Gil would change his mind.

  1. Looks like Gil is doing his part to get Ray ready for prison by having the first turn in panel one.

  2. I was gonna say, that’s an awfully… intimate… looking position in panel 1. Gil forceful with an undercurrent of affection, Ray initially resistant with the hurt morphing into pleasure. Get a room, guys!

    And on a completely side note… I don’t suppose Gil will face any charges (or even a reprimand) for this assault. Nope, he’s above the law.

  3. At least he didn’t call him “gent”.

    Gil looks waaaay too comfortable in that position with pizza flipper.

    Also, Gil’s hand is creepin’ me out. What’s going on with it…is it melting????

  4. GT does not pull ray’s ear & tell him to “squeal like a pig”…
    So Tsuga, jvwalt, & Regina,lust is not what GT has in mind…
    I’m curious–how did he know where the pizza flipper lived? Why did ray not hear GT “john Wayne” the door…
    Deus ex machina, as they used to say…

  5. I’m thinking that Ray will end up dumping Cassie, and will become best buds with Steve.

  6. So Gil’s going to deny the lovebirds their nuptials as a way of punishing Cassie for missing the big game? Perfect Milfordian sense.

  7. Steve called Gil while he (Steve) was on his way to Ray’s. Gil was on his way to the Cormans’. How did Steve know Ray’s address? There was no reason for it to be in Cassie’s note: she knows where Ray lives.

    Gil may have just rushed in through an open door. That might eliminate a B&E charge, at least under old common law.

  8. P3 Cassie: “I don’t care what you do… we’re still getting married!”
    Gildo: “[hic, burrrp] We are? Does Mimi know about this? No wonder Flippy went off on the loser with the bad toupee. OK then, if we can stop at Reno for my divorce and then some walk-in clinic so I can score some extra-strength blue stiffies I’m in. And I’m gonna give you all new meaning to the words transition game, high post, and drawing a foul!”

  9. Good one, Regina! One more gent reference and all hell would break loose. I’m not impressed at all. Gil again lets everyone else do all the dirty work, then plays the hero. Sorry, no bouquets from this direction.

  11. What is all that reading material scattered over the floor chez Ray in panel #2? Was he planning to take his collection of stroke magazines with him on his Las Vegas honeymoon?

    Comment by David Black — March 30, 2010 @ 4:58 pm

  12. #11 LOL – yes wondering the same thing re: how does every1 know where PizzaFlipper lives and what’s with the reading material (as if he is literate)

    But… yes where in hell in Cassie’s drive-by Aunt? She reminds me of myself as the worst aunt ever, sort of like Jackie on Roseanne

    I never baby-sat ever and TG those kids are almost 18 now LOL

  13. Off-topic, but there’s a story in the news about two female teachers in Brooklyn who have had their lives ruined after being caught having sex with each other in an (empty) classroom.
    They had been busted by the school janitor.
    This is why I get so upset about people like Steve Luhm who won’t accept the boundaries of their job-descriptions.

  14. Panel one: Gil succeeds in maneuvering his right hand to give Ray a TITTY-TWISTAH!

    Comment by HighSchoolstillscaresme — April 6, 2010 @ 3:36 pm

  15. [...] until Mr. Hobart talked smack about you on the radio. And how’s that absurd restraining order the pizza flipper no doubt took out on you for barging into his apartment and tackling him last [...]
