“Sentry agreed to a recovery game vs my up-and-coming dark ladies of the night. At first, it seemed like we'd have our way with them handily--their tree was slumbering somewhere, they were missing one player from a previous game, another's niggling injury kept him sidelined, and a 4th was arrested before the game per my handicap roll. Our mouths were watering at the thought of getting free scores/passing sp's to improve us for future matches.

Stupid fans--a riot held the game up for 6 turns, and dark elves are too slow to make a score in 2 turns. Halftime's here, scoreless game, tree's back, and we're kicking. What happened to our advantage?

We still had superior numbers, and were able to make the most of it by stealing the ball away and making the score 1-0. Things are looking good...

...but don't they always right before the worst happens? In this case, the evil treeman made up for missing the first "half" by killing one of my precious blitzers, pummelling her so hard not even the apo could put her back together. In retaliation, our ladies banded together to steal the ball from their streaking catcher and pass it forward for a 2-0 edge.

As would only seem appropriate, a second riot held the game up for the remainder of the turns. Stupid fans.

We dedicate the second touchdown, the ensuing victory, and the 4 skill rolls earned this game to the memory of Taffy. Our fans are already clamoring for you to be magically brought back to life, and we the coaches have a feeling that very soon we'll see you again, although as a blitzer will have to be seen...”
