“The playoffs are underway, and it's not gone well for the Parolees who were taken to pieces by the Shipwrecks. It wasn't looking good from the start when their offensive drive went over a quarter of the match before unbalancing a single opponent. The Shipwrecks' counter was effective, but this was only the start of their misery. Blasio, though by some to be among the league's most talented players was cruelly chopped down in his prime when tripped breaking through the Sartosa line. Rumours are that he had the flu as his performances in recent weeks had been abysmal, but this was to be his last such performance - landing awkwardly and driving his own tooth through his skull.

It was quickly downhill from there, and talented blitzer Aluysio soon fell to injury before Leonardo had his nose smashed into his brainpan and crumpled to the dirt. The Parolees lined up with 5 players on their last drive - almost unheard of in Grind. Coach Franco has called out the Shipwrecks for a beating next time they meet, and has returned to Pavona with a handful of fresh pardon request forms waiting for the governors' stamp. He's promised a major rebuild in the off-season.”
