“Interesting game, def with low expectations. Norse vs flings, little punching bags basically and he hasthe speed to just nake the trees irrelevant.

First half I had to receive. Opening blocks didnt do much. I secured the ball and held itfor as long as I could before the pressure. I did a TTM (the second time) to score. First time was 1 square shy.

Kick landed right on the opps LOS which made it very easy to score in 3 turns. I could have gotten a few 1 die blotzes, but all my BD results were clumped together. My last 3 turns of the first half were 1/89, failed fling dodge, 1/9... It was kind of out of my control. I usually run up against this with legend status coaches - my dice just plummet. It was like watching the movie "Mac and Me", waiting for something to turn around and it just kind of gets worse progressively.

Second half was equally as terrible, kick either on the LOS or it was a touchback I think. I cant remember. I burned 2 RRs on BD/BD in my first turn, the second time with another 1/89. Opp scored quickly which gave me some hope. But without RRs I had a dumb small screen on my second to last turn. I tried a dodge so I could blitz and do a potato run but, another failed dodge.

For the most part I think I was in a position to make some magic happen. I knew staying back was a mistake because the valk is too fast and basically the bane of a halfings existance. Just some really punishing block and dodge dice. The "Mac and Me" of games.

Opp played great, no crazy mistakes - maybe the rush in the end. But a lot of that going around, I failed a simialr rush on my second TTM after landing. He took advantage of a great match up and basically watching my trees punch themselves in the pinecones. ”
