What The Durnit??

In honor of HARD KNOCKS starting up again, here is another football-themed JOHNSON FOLLIES. *snore*

Just like on HARD KNOCKS, we get introduced to drolls and dreamers who want only to play professional football.

Flying in a (cheese) wedge formation, we have a boy in a turtleneck (head popping out of sight to prevent a concussion, are you listening, Roger Goodell?). A sissy boy with cravat flying proudly in the wind. A high society lady armed with a feather boa. A groovy Negro. And, oddly, a burly man in a football uniform. But just ignore him.

Meanwhile we have a football with a frog creature inside it hopping over the goal line to score "2" points. Firstly, I think we can all agree this isn't funny. But what else? Are we to accept that a frog can push its legs through pigskin? Does that mean pigs can push themselves through frogskin? The whole idea gives me gooseflesh.

Next Week: Froggy goes acourtin' (i.e., plays basketball for the Nuggets (they need it)).
