Monk's Morons vs Knives in the Darkness
The Morons elected to receive, putting the ball in the paw of AG 3 Ogre Neils Bohr and pressing forward as hard as they could. Dark Elves flew left and right, either sent flying by Ogre fists or dodging to safety to stall the Ogre advance. It was a long grind down the field, but a Dark Elf turnover led to Bohr making a breakaway run with a pair of snots to escort him. Knives in the Darkness rallied, blanketing the ballcarrier, but Bohr broke a tackle and trucked over the opposing Runner on his way in to the endzone.
Knives in the Darkness weren't able to get much going in the scant turns remaining in the first half (getting little in the way of receivers down the pitch, then failing the pickup anyway) but the halftime break returned the last of their KOs to the pitch, leaving them only without a Lineman with a fractured leg. The kick was short, and Knives surged up the field, taking up several scoring positions. However, the Runner again failed to pick up the ball, sending it skittering towards the Line of Scrimmage. Morons shouted in glee as they smashed their way towards the ball, eventually marking it with an Ogre and a pair of Snots. This didn't deter the Runner from making the pickup this time, however, and he quickly dodged away and handed the ball to a waiting Blitzer. The Blitzer, in turn, ran down the pitch and threw it to another Blitzer who promptly trotted in for the score, 1-1.
With 6 turns to play, the Morons lined up in the same formation as last time and proceeded to press forward urgently, smelling a rare win. The Ogres bunched up in the middle of the pitch, attempting to power through, but a Bonehead left an avenue open for a Blitzer to make a risky blitz. It paid off for the Knives as they scored double Stumbles on the 2d against block, and sent the ballcarrier tumbling to the ground. The ball stayed mostly in the center of the Moronic mass, however, and the Dark Elves were unable to extract it. The Morons spent a turn consolidating, and a snot snagged the ball and hobbled to safety. The Dark Elves suffered a quick turnover on a failed dodge, letting the Morons return the ball to Bohr's safe hands. The Morons punched their way towards the right sideline, and established a solid screen. Knives in the Darkness failed a dodge on their last desperation blitz, and Bohr walked in for the TD with no time for the Dark Elves to equalize.
Monk's Morons 2 - 1 Knives in the Darkness
A good match for the Ogres, who got some needed SPP on the big guys, though the new guy got nothing. A snot caught MVP and leveled up, which could be interesting. More than anything, the Morons got 3 points in the standings, a huge accomplishment for a squad which historically has trouble managing draws.
