For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for February 16, 2018

Yeah, playing one-on-none can be quite dangerous.

I guess in Michael’s school they can’t afford hoops, nets, and backboards, and the kids in PE class just throw the ball at the wall? Also, what is that weird ball? Those lines on the ball are not right for any basketball I have seen. Is this what basketballs look like in Canada?

Try banging your head against the wall. That should produce the same results!

Playing dodgeball with a basketball would most definitely hurt more than playing with a regular dodgeball

Maybe that hit on the head will knock some sense into Mike on how to make up with Martha.

He should try a baseball. Worked for Steve McQueen in “The Great Escape.”

Did that knock some sense into you, kid?

Ouch.

What? No Martha today?

Thinking, like, maybe I should stand a little further away from the wall that I am throwing the ball at.
