“Assured Jim showed just why he is currently the best human thrower in the game, twice stealing the ball and throwing maximum distance to set up touchdowns, in addition to other more standard throwing plays.

It was a much closer game than the 5-1 suggests. The Devils scored early but could not prevent an equalizer despite early domination as 3 casualties (including a bull) and 3 knock outs saw the chaos dwarves short on players. Aphraig scored early to get 2 rolls for the KOs, but that enabled a Dee OTS.

2-1 but receiving and back to 10 players, the Warfyk players stepped it up a gear and brutally dismantled the Deepwater Devils side - with the aid of bribes and a blind referee. Just as it was looking dire, the wrestle-hobgoblin with the ball was left next to a blitzer who managed to force him down (-2D POW/bothdown) and the ball squirmed into a place where Jim could snatch it (4+ pickup) to toss it away for 3-1.

Then a blitz enabled Brad Dee to get under the ball and catch it. The minotaur bore down on him but somehow the foetal position proved an effective defense (triple skull, failed loner RR) and it was 4-1. Then a perhaps pointless snaked go for it (no CD player could score) sent the remaining bull to the floor and the ball scattered to the edge of the pack. A second scatter saw it again accessible to Jim (4+ pickup again) and that set up 5-1.

For his superb performance, Assured Jim earned a nice big target on his back and the minotaur didn't miss a 2nd time, but he'll be OK after a bit of rest.

That's over 400 yards thrown by Jim and Fable got faster (+MA) - so a very positive day on the field despite the beating and retired linemen.”
