Yeah... I agree. Totally been slacking on this. I keep telling myself; I'll do it tonight, I'll do it tonight only to get home and drink a few beers and forget about everything. I forget about my shitty day at work. I forget.
Well, I am off work a bit early today, and today's the day, gents! Today I put up this thread! (it's always the small victories that count in life, right?)
It's been a long season. We started with so much steam. I started with such high aspirations. Boy, did I come crashing back to Earth hard. Playing an AV7 team with an average stat line and an unreliable player have taken it's toll. I dread these matches. Honestly, I was kinda' glad I finished outside the top four. Then TyDog backed out... Dammit. So I've taken my boys out of hibernation. I'm ready to face me some dirty, mangy rats! I'm ready to climb to the top. How about you?
Drakenhof Elite v Marienburg Keydets
Coach Deano and his Keydets have certainly marched along this season, haven't they? I was looking forward to he and the Warthogs bashing themselves for playoff positioning. Sadly, the Keydets were handed an admin win. They come into this match at full strength. Coach Deano had better be careful with his star, Mr. Bobby Lee, though. Another TD, another MVP, or two casualties means that he'll have to release this player so he can find greatness for himself in the pro leagues.
Venk and his Elite are no slouches, however. Coach Ren has seen that the 'students' need a bit of protection so has petitioned his 'school council' for better equipment. All he was able too do was secure two lousy helmets. Well, hope them boys know how to use them
Surprisingly enough, the TV difference is not great enough to warrant any inducements. Barring any roster-manipulation by either team, it'll be a square match.
PREDICTION: Sorry, Ren, but two helmets won't be enough. I think you'll do well right up until your AV7 begins to cave. The Keydets sport much more block and a smattering of guard. I see this match going down 2-1 for the Keydets.
Tappa Kegga Bru v The New Avengers
After an improbable late season surge and the rival Blackwater University getting their Blood Bowl program suspended for academic cheating, President Kane will get to play for it all!! Maybe it was Kane that tipped off the Commish's office. Maybe the Prez knew his University had to save some face; though it meant a smear campaign against a rival. Just maybe...
After the demise of the original Flash, the New Avengers have been a team consumed with stamping out evil wherever it may lurk. Yes, friends, even on the pitch! The Punisher is especially dangerous now that he has been playing with brass knuckles. And Blade will have a reckoning with Prez Kane, no doubt!
The difference here is the TV difference. The Avengers are giving up 170k in inducements. That's a lot. Hmm... what to do
PREDICTION: Look, I'm going to give it my best shot. I'll prolly take a wizard. Maybe a bribe and some babes. Hopefully whatever I choose will give me the advantage. But I see it bleak for my TKB. I have some MB and guard. Hopefully it'll make the difference. BUT(!) 2-1 for the Avengers as the bribe is useless as is the fizzle of the wizard. Jester's better prepared this time.
Allright, guys. There you have it. Just two matchs. Let's get them played and uploaded!!
