“The ogreless Gypsies stepped up against the Dark Elf team, DUNKELHEIT. Would the revamped Gypsies be heroes or zeroes? It didn't start well... Granite got flattened as he moved against the elves in the first plays of the game. Luckily, the boys were able to hold off the elves until the rookie thrower, Nightsong could pick it up and toss it to Jonez for only his second career completion. Jonez would be immediately knocked out and would remain so for the rest of the game. The Gypsies slowly moved the ball down the field, but lost it repeatedly as the dark ones swarmed over the the Gypsies, stripping the ball several times. Jawshatter was able to finally grab the ball and push in for yet another career TD, further cementing his place as the leading lineman scorer on the team... 1-0!

The elves pushed back, trying to even the game up before halftime. The usually quiet Dirk Drawbridge found an opening and blitzed the elven thrower, knocking the ball loose! Wesley Stable was badly hurt by the killer witch elf, Lucia, trying to buy Drawbridge time. Dirk made the sacrifice worth it and scored his first touchdown of his 27 games! 2-0 Gypsies! The elves had a little time to try and even it up, but the Gypsy fans hurt the witch elf, Veirna with a love-note wrapped around a brick! The half ended with the rookie catcher, Dick Valentine being upended by Lucia the killer witch elf. He dusted himself off and made a rude joke about her and her witch elf teammate!

The second half kept the momentum going with a blitz on the kick-off! the blitzers were all over the elven ball-carriers, trying to keep them under fire. McDamage, moving quicker than the witch elf expected, crippled Lucia as she came after him! Nightsong showed his ability to scrap, by taking out a lineman. Frontman recovered the fumbled ball, but, as before, lost it quickly to the stripping abilities of Dunkelheit (Valentine made a crude joke about their stripping ability, but that was all he would produce for the rest of the game). In one massive effort, St. Stone killed an attacking blitzer and then broke the arm of the Dunkelheit thrower! Brimstone handed off the ball to Nightsong, who tossed it to none other than Drawbridge for the final TD of the game, 3-0!

Nightsong was properly awarded MVP, but the Gypsies would take home little cash and, incredibly, no increase in its fan base. Perhaps they though this was a fluke win. With luck like Coach Nutria had, one can't really disagree...

Thanks for the game, Nick. You did the best you could with a 27% luck differential. Rematch is always there for you, though I hope the luck ratings doesn't switch!”
