How It Went Down

Cayla paints the word picture for Les. Between Our Lady of the Cedars and now “Central Catholic”, it seems that the parochial schools have just been giving the She-Goats hell.

Summer blew out her knee falling on top of two other players? I can see her getting hurt at the bottom of a pile…whatevs.

Even Slam-Dunk Summer’s injuries are spectacular: “The whole gym heard it pop!” If Wally had been at the game, no doubt he’d need Buddy by his side to keep him calm!

Funny as a Crutch

The bald guy in panel 2 has that look on his face because he just spent the last four hours on a plane listening to Les abusing the flight attendants. And now Les is walking behind the poor guy and muttering to himself.

I guess Les’ cellphone battery died again, because he doesn’t know if his superstar daughter’s team won tonight’s tournament game. By the way, Panel 3 Les: the momentum would take the team into the next round, not vice-versa.

Les arrives home (didn’t need to be picked up this time?) not to the expected victory celebration, but to be greeted by the sight of his golden girl on crutches. A tip of the SoSF porkpie hat to the many FW followers who predicted a career-threatening sports injury to Sum’ Mo’.

Doink-a Schoen

So is the whole reason for Keisha challenging Summer to “a little one-on-one” a pretense to talk about Les and Cayla’s relationship? Or did K-Bomb broach the subject merely as a dirty trick to get Sum’ Mo’ to put up a brick? Doink!
