“Sometimes, no matter what you do, luck just doesn't go your way. Astros, unfortunately, had to suffer through that during the first half when the Stouts were repeatedly afflicted with buttery fingers and clumsy feet. The dice went against him so much that the Crusaders were actually able to score despite only fielding nine players at any one time. That touchdown felt completely unearned. The game really should have been a blowout in his favor and it was only poor dice rolls that kept it close at all.

The good news: the Crusaders managed to get several of their key players back from injured reserve.

The bad news: I'm still an atrocious coach. Although, that fact won't stop me from soldiering on.”
