Blue ballers, we're back and we're keeping it a buck reviewing our 3-goal, 2-1 victory over the Revs at Yankee Stadium. Jake & Trey talk the perennially underrated Keaton Parks, Martinez' most recent clinical finish in front of goal, the dawn (?) of Julian, and much more. Plus: vibe checks in the guts of Yankee Stadium, Outfield reports on a different big bird headed to NYCFC, and the eerie quiet of a drumless supporter's section. Then: a quick n' dirty precap of a Crew that's looking primed for a rebuild season — but call us Sluggo because no matter what, Nancy still poses a threat. Strap on your safety goggles — you've got Blue Balls.

Legendary cartoonist Bill Griffith returns to celebrate his fantastic new book, THREE ROCKS: The Story of Ernie Bushmiller, The Man Who Created NANCY (Abrams ComicArts). We get into his lifelong history with NANCY, how that strip was like a lesson in what comics are, the time he brought his Zippy The Pinhead into Bushmillerland, why Bushmiller and Crumb are the only two cartoonists whose work gives him 100% pleasure (and don't inspire criticism or jealousy), how the idea for Three Rocks percolated for a few decades until he read Paul Karasik & Mark Newgarden's book HOW TO READ NANCY, and why he decided not to draw Bushmiller's characters in his book (he collages existing Nancy, Sluggo, & Fritzi art instead). We also discuss how many of his cartooning students have never read NANCY but still wear T-shirts with her face (& trademark spiky hair), the problems younger cartoonists have with continuity in storytelling, and what he's learned from teaching. And then we talk about the death of Bill's wife, the great underground cartoonist Diane Noomin, and how he's gotten by in the year since. We get into the new comic Bill made about (& with) Diane, The Buildings Are Barking (Fantagraphics/FU), how he still hears her voice, what it's like to work on a new book without the person who read every panel of his for 49 years, keeping Zippy going while grieving, how having a daily strip all this time seems to have immunized him from anniversaries, the ferry ride he & Diane used to share, how the death of Aline Kominsky-Crumb two months after Diane's brought him and Robert Crumb closer, and more.
