Libertines Pick Up First Win


Hello, BFL fans. This is Bri'k Mouseberger, reporting from the Holy Terra Warriors' locker room. Tonight, the Slaaneshi Libertines overpowered the Holy Terra Warriors by a score of 3 - 2. A nameless Beastman---we will simply call him Mutie because of his newly grown tentacle---scored all three of the Libertines' TD's.


It was a beautiful night at the H.T.W. Stadium. The Libertines drove the ball in for a 1 - 0 lead early in the first half. Then the Warriors unleashed a barrage of offense. The Warriors' Blitzer Granger Grimwulf trotted into the endzone on the first score, and the second score came through the air to "Crazy Legs" Cole. Unfortunately, the wear from the Libertines' bruising Chaos Warriors slowed them down in the second half.

The second half was all Slaaneshi, and Beastman Mutie pounded the ball into the Warriors' endzone twice. The Libertines benefited from crowd participation as several sideline throw-ins bounced the Libertines' way. Kickoffs also gave the Libertines a leg up as they pushed into the Warriors' side of the pitch.

The game ended in exciting fashion, though. A scrum in the final minutes resulted in the Warriors getting the ball. Thrower Ian "Iceman" Ingwald hurled a long bomb down field to a waiting "Assassin" Ackhart. The pass was long enough; it was accurate enough; it was....dropped by the human Blitzer. Ackhart was unblocked to the endzone. If he had caught it, the Warriors would have salvaged a tie, but that did not happen.

The Slaaneshi Libertines pick up their first win of the season. The Warriors pick up their second loss of the season, and bookies picked up heavy bags of gold as many bets failed to guess the correct spread. The Warriors had been favored in this contest, and the Chaos team had been given inducements to play.

No matter. It was another lively contest in the the BFL. Keep your Wizard Ears tuned in next week for the Holy Terra Warriors versus the all-new Chaos Chris and the New Ork Skullcrushaz versus the Bloody Vikings! Broadcasts are subject to local black out.
