“NBFL Season 13 playoffs: winner goes to the Super Bowl.

Frogs petty cash a wiz and a tense, hard fought 16 turns ensues. An epic game with some mistakes and some bad breaks turning this into a 0-0 draw at the end of regulation. Then early in OT this happens on IRC:

[00:01:07] --> Jeffro (~Jeffro@***) has joined #NBFL
[00:01:15] <Jeffro> ***
[00:01:20] <Jeffro> phone dying...
[00:01:24] <Jeffro> no PC
[00:01:32] <Jeffro> 0-0 in OT
[00:01:52] <Jeffro> MoNads!... gimme the low down!
[00:04:47] <happygrue|NBFL> teh suck
[00:05:26] <Jeffro> 10% left and draining...
[00:06:52] <Jeffro> Kryten!? You got beads on this game?
[00:07:17] <Jeffro> I hate to ask the combatants
[00:07:41] <Kryten> into OT now
[00:07:45] <MrNomad> It's pretty even atm
[00:07:46] <Kryten> deeep kick
[00:07:53] <Kryten> detroit has the pigskin
[00:07:59] <MrNomad> Happy has a pair of blitzers KOed atm
[00:08:11] <MrNomad> Lore has a good NW out
[00:08:13] <Kryten> 2 rerolls to green bay, just 1 for detroit
[00:08:29] <Kryten> and it's a hell of a long way down the field to safety
[00:08:33] <Jeffro> so OT just started
[00:08:37] <Kryten> yeah
[00:08:40] <MrNomad> Lore has 9 players active
[00:08:53] <MrNomad> Happ has 11
[00:09:16] <MrNomad> Could easily turn into a numbers game with marking and blitzing
[00:10:04] <MrNomad> Detroit just used last RR
[00:10:14] <Jeffro> Uffdah
[00:10:27] <MrNomad> Detroit also made it 10-9 now
[00:10:32] <MrNomad> playerwise
[00:11:18] <Kryten> mmm
[00:11:21] <MrNomad> Game could be over this turn....Happy has a clean blitz on the ball carrier and the ball carrier is in the endzone
[00:11:36] <Kryten> someone gonna get a hurt real bad
[00:11:47] <MrNomad> ballcarrier has SS though
[00:12:02] <MrNomad> pow
[00:12:03] <Kryten> ooof
[00:12:05] <Kryten> down he goes
[00:12:23] <Jeffro> can't sidestep POWs
[00:12:28] <Kryten> nay
[00:12:30] <MrNomad> Nope...
[00:12:36] <MrNomad> Looking grim now :/
[00:12:38] <Kryten> another tough decision here
[00:12:49] <Kryten> ****ing Woodson
[00:12:52] <Kryten> going all MVP on us
[00:13:15] <Kryten> and Woodson scuffs the pickup!
[00:13:29] <MrNomad> Detroit is by no means in the clear though
[00:13:31] <Jeffro> BWAH!
[00:13:40] <Kryten> it's still completely awful
[00:13:42] <Kryten> but there is hope
[00:14:08] <MrNomad> wow
[00:14:11] <happygrue|NBFL> failed pickup in the endzone FTW: ouch
[00:14:17] <MrNomad> gutsy blitz there
[00:14:48] <Kryten> oh jeez
[00:14:55] <Kryten> Marcus has found a way to get the ball
[00:15:03] <Jeffro> he does that
[00:15:10] <Kryten> dodged twice from DT
[00:15:15] <MrNomad> amazingly
[00:15:40] <Jeffro> makes it look easy
[00:16:49] <MrNomad> Marcus survives the blitz and no pow in 4 dice rolls
[00:17:06] <Jeffro> he does that too
[00:17:34] <MrNomad> Truly an epic NFC championship
[00:18:08] <Jeffro> got a charger for the phone
[00:18:21] <Jeffro> moar play by play!!!
[00:18:25] <Jeffro> ;)
[00:19:21] <MrNomad> Detroit blitzes one of the marks off of Marcus with a Pow
[00:20:01] <Kryten> looks like we're going to have another non-DT dodge
[00:20:09] <MrNomad> Ohhhh
[00:20:16] <Kryten> oh ***
[00:20:20] <Kryten> he got DT'd!
[00:20:21] <MrNomad> Game over man game over..
[00:20:24] <Kryten> the ball is loose again!
[00:20:30] <Kryten> no one has a RR left
[00:20:34] <Kryten> it's all in Nuffle's hands at this point
[00:20:55] <MrNomad> But grue can get 5 players around the ball to Lore's 2
[00:20:56] <Kryten> Jordan Poyer is the last pestigor standing
[00:21:00] <Jeffro> you guys are great commentary :)
[00:21:05] <Kryten> he's going to have to cover up the ball
[00:21:18] <Kryten> but it's awful, three or four frogs have him surrounded
[00:21:25] <MrNomad> Woodsen is getting ready to win this game
[00:21:46] <Kryten> sidestep and fend on poyer
[00:21:48] <Kryten> he's going to need it
[00:21:58] <Kryten> and he stands firm!
[00:22:14] <MrNomad> Unbelievable
[00:22:30] <Kryten> the ball is trapped, difficult to recover
[00:22:35] <Kryten> even for the amazing woodson
[00:22:40] <Kryten> and he's scuffed it again!
[00:23:02] <MrNomad> I see a ray of hope for Lore though
[00:23:12] <Jeffro> careful
[00:23:14] <Kryten> still, it's a scrum of 2 pestigors against 4 slann at the goalline
[00:23:18] <Jeffro> no kibbutzing
[00:23:38] <Kryten> ooof
[00:23:42] <Kryten> snakes!
[00:23:44] <MrNomad> Not what I would have done there :/
[00:23:49] <Kryten> no extra pestigor into the fray
[00:23:57] <Kryten> and again Woodson will get a chance to win it
[00:24:10] <MrNomad> lots of blocks on the amazing Marcus though
[00:24:16] <MrNomad> Or chances
[00:25:11] <Kryten> coach grue ponders his options
[00:25:21] <Kryten> and brings a fifth rookie to the scrum
[00:25:36] <Kryten> poyer stomps on the ball to pop it loose!
[00:25:44] <Kryten> and again Woodson gets in a shot
[00:25:50] <Kryten> and again poyer stands firm!
[00:25:58] <Kryten> woodson dives for the ball!
[00:26:01] <Kryten> and he's got it!
[00:26:04] <MrNomad> game over!!!
[00:26:14] <Kryten> what an incredible finish
[00:26:15] <MrNomad> Woodsen wins it for the Frogs!!!
[00:26:29] <Jeffro> well played
[00:26:36] <MrNomad> Great game guys
[00:26:39] <Jeffro> thank you, commentary ;)
[00:26:43] <Kryten> :D
[00:26:46] <Kryten> exciting OT session
[00:27:16] <Jeffro> must pass out from Scotch now
[00:27:30] <MrNomad> I'm thinking of grabbing some rum myself hehe
[00:27:34] <Jeffro> Happy Festivus
[00:27:38] <Jeffro> ;)
[00:27:41] <Kryten> vodka lemon for me :P
[00:27:43] <-- Jeffro (~Jeffro@***) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[00:27:55] <MrNomad> Exciting game
