“After this morning's game against those Ogres, me and the lads hopped into the wagons, and caught some shut eye on the way north to play the Kneel-O-Matic factory team in a friendly.

I guess that ThreeKills was getting a bit of the gate, and some "promotional" considerations, and so we showed up, all kitted out and ready to play.

They have some big boys on that team, and one or two of them might even make it to a pro team one day, but they were just no match for us.

Hurly felt bad about Arsus' knee, but I think that if you name yourself "The Gladiator" you get what you asked for. Borl and Mazda got into a bit of a jawing contest, which Borl ended by showing Mazda his famous "RibGrip" blocking technique. With some aspirin, and plenty of fluids, Mazda should be up to speed for the next game they play.

We are really starting to come together as a team, and no one showed that more than Curry Fireaxe today. 16 Blocks recorded. 16! He isn't getting nearly the credit he deserves. Our line is doing a great job on the field, and it really makes it easy to score when the other team is all staring at the ground.

Merikil grabbed his first scores, got a big hand, and some "quality time" after the match with a few of the fans.

Sometimes, the job is all about the fringe benefits.”
