Once, just once I would like to see Charle Brown kick that football. I think it's a reminder that life just isn't fair and that there are some battles that no matter how many times you try, you'll always fail.

I found it! It was a 1979 storyline where after Charlie Brown recovers from the hospital, Lucy keeps her promise not to pull the ball away. She does, but Charlie Brown kicks her hand.
Interestingly, I also found out that there was a time Charlie Brown did kick the ball. It was in "It's Magic, Charlie Brown," but Schulz didn't consider it canon because that didn't happen in the strip.

Atom, yeah I was aware of the latter. I don't remember the 1979 strip, though.
Rocky, I LOVE "A Boy Named Charlie Brown." My favorite part is right near the end when Charlie Brown is deep in despair and can't bring himself to get out of bed and Linus comes to him and reminds him that the word didn't come to an end.

I consider Curb Your Enthusiasm to be the natural sequel to Peanuts. Larry David resembles a Charlie Brown that has become absolutely fed up with getting the shit end of the stick.
