Clue/Question: The sprinter was losing races and needed to train harder to get his career – – –
Answer: BACK ON TRACK
(Major groan! Not just because it’s a stinky pun, but it just seems so cliché. Meh. All old favorite clue words today, with only “crafto” being a definite return jumble. I appreciated the letter groupings though. It makes my posting job just a little easier. The answer letter layout might have been the best jumble in the puzzle, but the clue/question and the cartoon were both very leading. Fun cartoon though. Reminds me a little of the Raiders’ kicker, Sebastian Janikowski. At least the way he used to be. A hard partier, with a questionable diet, for a professional athlete. I think the kicker, Nigel Gruff, in the movie “The Replacements” was loosely patterned after him. Talk about cliché?! I know, but I just LOVE that movie! Great cast, football, love story, comedy and music. It’s got it all. Not to mention the gorgeous girl next door, Brooke Langton! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
