The Theroid Thearchs learned the lesson that most High Elf teams try to avoid learning: Do not
play a bashing game against a bashy teams like the White Meat Orc Chops. The Thearchs tried to
knock a hole through the Orc line only to meet one enraged Black Orc who quickly trashed the Elves
star player and nearly killed another within the first two turns. The Orc Chops surrounded the
Elves and pummeled the ball free then ran the clock down.
In the second half the Orcs muscled the massed Thearch ranks toward the eastern sideline.
Almost gleefully, #13Riplimb set up a chain push that not only injured a Thearch blitzer, but also
sent a line Elf into the crowd. The crowd taught everyone that bricks, boards, and rebar may be
used for more than building structures (Two casualties in one hit without Multi-Blow). The Orc
Chops coach was severely exercised when his team distracted themselves with a little game of Troll
baiting. Evidently some of the Orc players convinced their Troll that a line Elf was interested in
him. The whole team stopped playing to watch the amorous misadventures and left the Thearchs a
clear line to the goal. The High Elves MVP went to that player for the evasion skills he had to
utilize to escape #7Mighty Thunker. |
