“A good crowd turned out to watch a game that would be marred in controversy.
After losing to a valiant effort by the Skaven side Blood Smears, Coach Chainsaw went to shake the hand of star scorer Quizzer II who had given the rats the lead after snatching the ball in a play where the orcs failed to knock down any of the well placed players. When grasping the hand of the reluctant gutter runner, he noticed a rather strange glisten on the player's fur. Upon further inspection it became apparent that he and the other sensible members of the Blood Smears were slicked up in vaseline and hence far harder to hit properly than normal!
When angrily approaching the officials, they shrugged their shoulders pointing out this was not infringing on any known Blood Bowl rules. In fact, since there are no rules in Blood Bowl, this was quite obvious. A furious Coach Chainsaw snapped and raised his fist before pointing at the official and nodding his head in the direction of Vader. (What, did you think the coach could have done any damange?) The blitzer, fuming when his team failed to capitalise on his own good play, ripped out the throat of the offending official much to the joy of the crowd. The 'Saws were docked most of their winnings.
Ballista Junior, who had been hurt in the match, hobbled back onto the pitch to issue an apology. The crowd booed, he got fired, and hopefully nobody will be so foolish as to apologise for violence again. Hopefully the fans will be forgiving enough to turn up for the next game.
After the match, a grinning Coach Slick pointed out the damage the vermin who gave the vaseline a miss. They were all hurt or knocked out in the first half. His choice quote, "Looks like we gave them the slip!" Next time Coach Chainsaw will be sure to take into account such slick tactics.”
