“An embarrassing game for the Sidekicks. Whatever Nuffle has to say about it, the Orbits had the dice when it mattered most, while not much went right for the Underappreciated ones when they needed it to, but their coach didn't help and made a lot of fairly boneheaded decisions in both halves. An ill-advised loose ball push late in the first half gave the elves the chance they needed to pick it up and prance into the end zone, and a poor cage attempt by an inexperience amateur player in the second half stalled the Sidekicks' offense. The Witch Elves were practically made of steel, while Gaston the Bull Centaur decided to take off early for the second game in a row by getting KO'd.

The nail in the coffin came when the mighty +ST hobgoblin Cri-Kee went crowd-surfing in the second half courtesy of one of the ironclad witches, earning him a demise quite untimely even for a hobgoblin and leaving his coach scratching his head over the fact that apothecaries aren't allowed on crowd-surfs.

A disappointing game all around, and hopefully a performance that won't be repeated by the Sidekicks in the future. The lone ray of light came after the game was already over, when Gaston inexplicably earned MVP honors and his first skill.”
