A 2-1 loss to iipp0 does more damage to us in the standings than our team sustained.
We had some big problems with getting our hands on the ball. Sure Hands needs to be renamed Fumble Fingers or something to that effect--I've never seen it fail so much than I have in this league.
Anyways, iipp0 managed to do well early and on my first offensive drive, my Catcher got KOed and stayed out for the rest of the game, something that surely would have changed the fate of the game had he woken up or remained standing.
I was able to salvage the drive and then got the ball back to start the second half.
At one point, it didn't look likely, with the ball buried deep in the corner and I'm surrounded by Vamps. I made the attempt to get the ball in the hopes that the ball would scatter out of bounds and far away from the corner.
Alas, the ball scattered into the path of one vampire and the rest was too much to overcome. Two turns would have been sufficient but iipp0 had enough guys to mark and make it not happen.
We're happy to come out unscathed and with a Blitzer that leveled up, but we're still nervous about the next opponent: Michal.
I'm certain the fix is already in with those Gobbos and their prediction. ;)
