A Homage to "The Far Side"

[Benny B]

Next to Calvin and Hobbes, one of the best comic strips ever.  One of my favorites was the "What you say/What a dog hears" square below. 

So I began to wonder, is life imitating art with the J-May situation?

What Buzz said: "Jeronne, you are probably one of the greatest players I've ever seen come out of the state of Wisconsin, and if you commit to Marquette, work hard, get your grades up, and leave it all on the floor in practice, then there's a good possibility that you will start a few games your Freshman year and work your way into a full-time starting role within a year or two."

What Tim & Jeronne heard: "Jeronne, you are blah blah blah the greatest player ever blah blah blah blah blah blah you will start your Freshman year blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah."

I miss the far side.

And I suspect you are spot-on with your hunch.
