Okay So we got 3 categories to choose from above.
800 Capacity each.
Different options take up various amounts of Capacity. Facilities can be sold for a loss so new, better ones can be made later.
Facility cost ( money ) and Capacity usage increase as you go down the list for better ones obviously.
Completion times also increase with better facilities ( in weeks, basically think of this as 'Games away until their effects are activated.' )

Love the risk things, this game truly has it all!

Yeah when I was playing my first season as the 'Mud Dogs" from the 'Waterboy" movie I focused on Defensive, Rehab (injury recovery), and Morale ( 'Tank' mind set ). I didn't continue to Season 2, it's just left there as of now. I've been going over what I think would be a 'good' setup but I don't want to look anything up about it or 'meta game' it. I'd like to see what others think regarding what we should build, but I personally don't care as I'll just work around it as there's so many options. I was considering putting up a voting poll for stuff but so many things would be at 1 or 2 vote ties.

[DagothGeas5]

I myself don't feel in a position to say as I am not part of the team, but one thing for certain that worries me is the injury and sickness risks, anything that might get a player out of the game without prior notice. Even at a 1%, it feels quite a gamble, especially with the coin toss streak and all XD

[ An Unassuming Letter ]

Greetings and Salutations! ,

Who I am is not important, I am writing to express my continued intrigue and cheer for the squad you put together @Coach Classix, and to express my worry.

While it is a fact of life that there is no gain without pain, and something that might build up on the squad's passes would be greatly beneficial seeing those that were missed last game, possibly also due to the bad weather, it has come to my attention that some possible installments to the facilities that could catch your interest in acquiring might have a risk of injury or, worse, sickness. With injuries as severe as @Vergil's, and the continued, seemingly jinxed, coin tosses before every match, even the slightest chances to lose a player before a match I see as a potential for catastrophe, especially with games as close as the one won against the Emeralds. I am not writing to express what should or should not be done, but to express my worry and to plead with you to put a great mind on what might, at first glance, appear to be just a small risk in the grand scheme of things, especially if more than one player may be able to be sick or injured at the same time.

Whatever the case, I look forward to how will you be steering the squad, and you have my continued support.

... Stepping into his office after Saturday's afternoon practice drills Coach Classix is handed a letter from a secretary.

Secretary Brooke: Letter for you sir, non league related, fan mail to you direct.

Coach Classix: *pleasantly surprised* First one of these hmm... thanks.

Taking a seat at his desk with playbook and pre-game reports for the Dallas Rangers laid out in front of him he slits the envelope seam and has a read of the letter...

Yeah, I've been mulling over it and I think I'll pump some econ stuff first as 'user' skill can overcome the bonus stuff for now to player stats as I want to get Rehab stuff up I think first because we can't have the boys injured and out too long or too much. Boon Taker is being worked a lot and he's exhausted the last couple games filling in. I'm going to go for the Therapy's first I think, then grab QB skill options after some econ stuff, with Defensive/Strength boosts for later.

Field conditions are dry. Low Humidity/Cool. Evening game. Wind: None/Low Rain: None.

Stadium lights are dimmed as the Shitposters entrance begins. Some red, blue and white objects are glowing in the stands such as bracelets, glasses and assorted fan bought novelties...





The Dallas Rangers' QB Ferdinand Martin jogs out with his team onto the field and over to their side of the field.
Player introductions and numbers for the Shitposters are made as QB Kalzone "The Bomber" comes out behind his Defense in our 'spear' formation.
Both teams line up on their sidelines and those wearing helmets remove them as the music dies down and the national anthem is announced to be played in the stadium.





Following the anthem, QB Kalzone "The Bomber" and Dallas QB Ferdinand Martin make their way to the HQ 50 yard line at our logo.
QB Ferdinand Martin knowing how Kal likes to make a show at the coin toss makes his own gesture this time to start as he tilts his head down and makes a motion as if he's breathing hot air over his captains "C" on his chest and mock 'shines' it as if it were a badge.

Kalzone "The Bomber" with hands down at his side makes his right hand into a 'gun' and reaches over with his left to 'spin the barrel' which gets a raise in volume from the crowd and a smile from QB Ferdinand Martin as he looks over to the ref to make the coin toss call as the away team...

QB Ferdinand Martin calls 'heads'.

Coin lands on 'tails'. ( 1-7 now )

RPGHQ Shitposters will receive the ball to start the game.

Both teams line up their players on their respective sides as the Dallas kicker Timothy Hosking gets his distance and footing position just right lining up the ball.

Ref signals for the 'go ahead' and Timothy Hosking runs in and drills it high as game 4 is on...

[ 1st Quarter ]

Receiving the ball from the deep Dallas kick, Element "The Watchmen" gets us to our 30 yl, with Nemesis "The Skull" and Stacko Turtles getting us to our 25 yl. We are held at the 25 yl and forced to punt it away.

Dallas receives the Wndrbr Boots punt and is able to make it up field to our 40 yl on some nice passes as Dallas's QB is starting off with the passing game mostly. The boys are able to hold them in turn as well and they kick it off back to us as they can't break that 40 yl. Possessions exchange a couple times as it's the familiar 'test your opponent' Defensive back and forth for the first few mins.

On their 3rd possession their punt returner is able to make a nice run to over half field to our 48 yl with a follow up toss to a receiver to get to the HQ 28... they are coming on strong here nearing the halfway point of the quarter.

QB Ferdinand Martin stays with the passing game and makes a toss to a receiver just up center field to the left but Roguey "The Stealthy" snags that one out of the air for an INTERCEPTION on the HQ 9 yl saving a TD drive!

1q_INT.png

INT_Roguey_1q.png

The crowd erupts as that dangerous looking drive is squashed and the defensive and offensive lines swap out. Boon Taker gets us up to the 15 yl. Dallas can taste that end zone and they hold us there and push us back to the HQ 6 yl so we get Wndrbr Boots out there to drive it out again. We couldn't make anything of that interception but we stopped a likely TD...

Dallas getting it back are able to make it up field and finally break the 40 yl with QB Ferdinand Martin passing his way up field to our HQ 31. A long pass connects for a 1st down to our HQ 13 but we hold them for 2 downs with Lord Rumble swatting down a pass near the goal line to force a 4th down. Dallas gets the FG kicker out there to try and secure 3 pts to end the drive... It's good for 3-0 Dallas as they kick it back to us with just over 5:00 mins to go...

1q_Dallas_FG_3_0.png

Element "The Watchman" gets us up to our 17 yl after the deep kick went just inside our end zone.

Element_kick_return_HQ17.png

Kal finds Fin Arfin just up right for a nice catch to the HQ 30. Kal's toss up field to "The Juice" at the 50 is swatted down and rattled around a couple times as it's kept out of Juice's hands. We have to kick it off back on the 4th down yet again as we can't get a promising drive yet.

Fin_catch_1q.png

Kal_longbomb_nogood.png

The Rangers get it back and do some clock work here now to try and make a drive up field while hoping to deny us another possession chance before the quarter ends. The make it to their 43 yl and after a couple rush attempts they opt for a long bomb up center and it connects... with the Dallas WR able to make it into the HQ end zone for a touchdown... extra point is good for 10-0 Dallas.

Dal_td_6_0.png

Dal_10_0_1q.png

Element "The Watchmen" brings the return kick back on an impressive run to the Dal 47. This gets the crowd back into it as it looked like it was almost going to be a full return for a TD.

Watchman_nice_return.png

Once again though we are held up just inside the 50 yl and are forced to punt it off with about 3 mins left in the 1st quarter. Wndrbr Boots' deep kick is brought up to the Dallas 27 yl. Our defense holds them in turn locking down the running game at their 34 yl. QB Ferdinand Martin makes a hand off for a runner to split up middle but his grip isn't strong enough and it's smacked out of his hands! A mad scramble takes place to recover it!

FUMBLE_turnover_by_Ultrafan.png

The ball is finally recovered by Ultra Fan and it's a turnover to the HQ!

Ultrafan_fumble_recover.png

The crowd is reignited again now as we have just outside the 50 yl. Dallas holds us again though and the excitement dies down in the crowd as it looks like we won't be able to make anything of this opportunity either. After 3rd down, White Shark gets ready this time to make a possible long FG attempt and on 4th down we bring him out instead of going for a punt. The snap is made and placed and White Shark nails it high and almost dead center as it makes it in for 3 pts and his longest record kick now to date for 52 yards to make it 10-3, as we're finally on the board!

Whiteshark_record_fg_52_yards.png

Dal_10_HQ_3.png

Kicking it back to the Rangers they make it up field on another drive getting first downs every couple plays to keep it alive as they're proving to be a nuisance early on. They get to their 42 yl and make a pass deep downfield to try and get a late TD to end the quarter but Roguey "The Stealthy" had eyes on it and out maneuvered the intended receiver for an INTERCEPTION!

INT_Roguey_1q.png

Lines swap out quickly as we tried to make a last minute push out of our half of the field and Kalzone "The Bomber" returns the long toss favor finding Cipher "The Maverick" up middle who gets us a first down with about under 15 secs left.

Kal_1st_down_toss_to_cipher.png

Kal makes a quick toss over to Fin Arfin who catches it and steps out of bounds to stop the clock. With some extra time to rest and come up with a final play at 6 secs remaining in the first, Kal tosses it off to Nemesis "The Skull" who slips through the D line and up past center field before going down at the Dal 42 yl to end the quarter on a first down to an excited crowd as we'll start the 2nd with a full set of downs to work with...

[ End of 1st Quarter ]

► Show Spoiler

[ 2nd Quarter ]

Kal leads the boys out for the 2nd quarter and to the sidelines as momentarily as the proper lines get out there and ready for the 1st Down 2nd quarter start. The boys line up and Kal gets the snap back and fakes a toss to Fin Arfin far right and finds Nemesis "The Skull" up left who'd covered by a Ranger defender but Nemesis "The Skull" gets the mitts on it and jukes his defender almost making it all the way before being dragged down at the Dal 20 to keep the 1st down alive! The crowd feeling a TD coming erupt as Nemesis "The Skull" looks back to Kal and points with a nod and raising his hands up to the crowd to up the noise!

Kal_tosses_to_nemesis.png

Nemesis_1stdown_catch_2q.png

With the end zone in sight the Dallas Rangers hold us there for 2 downs and don't want to settle for a FG so Kal pulls a fake handoff to Stacko Turtles and "The Juice" and spots Bob Tee up far right covered by a Ranger defender......

Kal_toss_to_BobT.png

Bob Tee grabs it and holds on tight as they both go down inside the end zone for a TOUCHDOWN! White Shark hits the extra point and it's tied up at 10-10!

BobT_TD_2q.png

HQ_ties_it_10_10_2q.png

Kicking it back to Dallas they get to their 25 yl where they are held for a couple plays before a Ranger running back squeezed through the D and huffs it up center field on a nasty run before going down gassed... They are keeping the pressure up big time.

Dal_nasty_split_up_middle.png

They get to the HQ 39, and are held firm only managing to get to our 36 on 4th down. They get the kicker out for a FG attempt to finish off the drive with something to show for it and it's good... 13-10 Dallas.

Dal_13_10_2q.png

Possessions exchange a couple times as a standstill takes place with near catches and runs just short of 1st downs only to be kicked away...

On another of our possessions we receive another deep kick from Dallas and take a touchback as it's caught in our end zone so we go for the 20 yl start to play it safe. ( if you catch a ball in your end zone you can 'take a knee/touchback instead of attempting to run it up if you don't think you can get farther than your 20 yl so you can auto start at it. )

Cipher "The Maverick" snatches a quick toss getting us to our 26 yl with Bob Tee catching another one for 1st down at our 35 yl.

Bob_Tee_1stdown_catch_2q.png

Bing Lim gets another getting us to the HQ 42 with Cipher catching another again to keep the 1st down alive. Disaster strikes though... as a toss is caught but punched out and it's fumbled as Dallas recovers it bringing it back to our 24 yl...**** sake.

Dal_fumblerecover_2q.png

Dal_fumble_number51.png

Crowd is nervous again now as Dallas is hungry again for a go ahead TD. They make slow progress up to our 24... then 19... but the boys are holding them from getting a grip on the ball for good catches and 'walling up' to not allow runs to slip by as we push them back to our 23 yl.

Lich_tackles_2q.png

Xenich "The Ashen" saves what looked like a guaranteed TD with a swat forcing a 4th down.

Xenich_swat_play_2q.png

Dallas goes for the FG attempt for 3 pts at our 23 yl which should be an easy one but it gets place just 'off' for the kicker and it DOINKS the bottom of the goal post. Still 13-10...

FG_DOINK_no_good.png

We take over at our 23 yl but only manage to push up to our 28 before having to punt it off back to them...

Dallas manages to get to their 49 yl, the HQ 45 for a 1st down and then 39 before being pushed back to the HQ 45 yl again with Lich "The Immortal" making a clutch swat keeping them away from another deadly pass.

Lich_swat.png

Dallas once again on 4th down go for the FG to push ahead a little further. Ball is placed proper this time and is good for 3 pts, making it 16-10 Dallas.

Dal_16_10_2q.png

We can't get anything going and possessions exchange back and forth again with it under 2:20 to go in the 2nd Quarter. On what might be out last possession of the quarter now, we are able to push up field with some nice catches and runs by Bing Lim and "The Juice" to get to the Dallas 46 yl. on 3rd down White Shark is warming up for a possible FG attempt. Kalzone "The Bomber" takes the snap and has plenty of time to spot Bob Tee up right again and he fires it to him.......!

Bob Tee snatches that out of the air and huffs it in for his 2nd TOUCHDOWN! extra point is good and it's 17-16 HQ as we pull ahead for the first time in the game!

BobT_TD_2q_AGAIN.png

BobT_TD_2q_AGAIN_play.png

HQ_17_16.png

Dallas gets the ball back as the crowd is fired up again finally, making it to their 25 yl with under a minute to go. Breath "The Undying" makes a crushing hit on a Dallas player on one of their plays and this causes the first dust up of the game as the Ranger is slow to get up. No punches are thrown but extended pushing and face to faces take place with Opium Den getting some words in on the downed player which causes the Rangers to mob to him and our boys back Opium Den up with some 'meet and greets' in return.

Breath_big_hit_scuffle.png

Both teams settle down with luckily no penalties handed out as the tense game keeps them in check for now...

The boys' dust up gets the crowd roaring as Dallas can't get anywhere for a couple downs and they run the clock out to end the quarter so not to give the fans any further '**** ups' or nasty hits to cheer on and shift momentum enough for a possible interception or fumble.

[ End of 2nd Quarter ]

[ Half Time ]

[ 3rd Quarter ]

Starting the 3rd quarter both teams come out with similar energy as it feels like this one might go down to the wire so 'spirits' are high on both sides.
We kick to them to refresh the possession to start the 3rd quarter. Dallas receives the kick going down at their 22. They push up to their 28 and 32 before being brick walled and punting it off back to us.

Possessions exchange back a forth again as neither of us can solve the other or perhaps just playing it cautious.

Oyster takes the punt a few possessions later, this time getting us to our 35 yl with Bing Lim getting a BIG 1st down almost getting away from every Ranger before going down exhausted at the Dallas 35 yl!

Oyster_return_hq35.png

Bing_long_catch_open.png

Kal finds Fin Arfin right after for another 1st down near the Dallas 18 yl! The crowd noisy as it looks promising once again... but... on the next play Kal's toss is INTERCEPTED at the Dallas 5 yl and they get it back...

DAL_INT_3rd.png

blatt_int_pic_3rd.png

Crowd is quieted down as once again an interception is made so close to the Dallas end zone...Dallas is able to push back down field yet again getting first downs along the way at their 20, and 31 and 47 as they keep the drive alive with some nasty gains...

They get to the HQ 27 yl on a nasty run with the runners helmet popping off causing another bout of helmet to helmet introductions and it takes several minutes to settle everyone down.

Dal_helmet_off_dustup.png

Tempers are kept in check once again as Dallas is able to make it up a bit more to the HQ 23 yl and a toss up left finds the Rangers receiver who is able to just get in for a touchdown... they go for 2 pts on this one and the catch is good to make it 24-17 Dallas. They are putting up a good fight.

Dal_score_plays.png

Dal_24-17.png

Getting the kick back from Dallas we get to our 19 yl and 22 with a short dozer play by "The Juice" with 2 Rangers on him. Settling the boys down for a few seconds Kal talks to the boys as the play timer clicks down for a few seconds. The snap is made and Kal looks like he's going to go up mid to Cipher "The Maverick" who's under double coverage... but he shifts to the right and bombs one to Fin Arfin who delays his route as if he's not the intended receiver and quickly jukes and ups his speed to make his route and catches the Kalzone toss as he evades his defender! Fin Arfin turns on the jets and makes a massive run up field before a Dallas player is finally able to trip him up, bringing him down at the Dallas 3 yl!

"The Juice" muscles in to get us to the 2 yl but we're held until 4th down and we get White Shark out there to secure 3 pts to be safe and he nails it making it 24-20 Dallas.

Dallas gets it back after the kick making it to their 26 yl and eventually getting in a nasty Fin Arfin-esque run of their own to the HQ 21...ffs man...these guys.

Arcane Lurker gets a swat in forcing another 4th down as we hold them there thankfully and they go for another FG with time winding down now in the 3rd Quarter. It's good for 27-20 Dallas.

Dal_27_20.png

The boys are frustrated now but I tell them not to show it and keep the facial expressions in check and keep those ******* heads up, we're not out of this yet. Kal assures the boys we're doing okay and to just play their positions and not start any ******** as there's plenty of time left. He pats the players helmets on D and reminds them time is winding down and this is the last HQ possession of the quarter and to just focus on holding ground to go into the 4th quarter. The crowd sees this and can feel the emotion as they up the volume to cheer the boys on to finish off the quarter strong.


Dallas kicks it off back to us as Element "The Watchman" takes this one and gets us to the HQ 29. Nemesis "The Skull" gets in a rush to our 33 yl. A couple gains later to Cipher" The Maverick" and Stacko Turtles gets us up field near the 50 yl. "The Juice" is fired up still after that talk and with the crowd roaring to get something going as the time winds down in this 3rd quarter. Kal gets everyone in position and takes the snap... he keeps "The Juice" in his peripheral as he fake scans the possible receivers and bombs one to "The Juice" who tucks that ball in with an iron grip and lowers down blowing through 2 Rangers before being brought down at the Dallas 30!

Crowd fires up as the boys show "The Juice" some love after that one. Bing Lim and Nemesis "The Skull" get us up to the Dallas 15 yl as the quarter comes to an end...

[ 4th Quarter ]

The teams come out for the 4th quarter jogging and seemingly unaffected by any fatigue as the adrenaline is still keeping everyone going after that break. Kal and his offensive line make their way out to resume the 4th quarter on a 3rd down on the Dallas 15 yl. We get held again so White Shark comes out to put one up to narrow the score gap once again and it's good for 3 pts. 27-23.

HQ_FG_27-23_Dal.png

Dallas gets it back after the field goal by White Shark with the crowd alive again getting to their 35 yl, followed up by a 1st down to the 45 yl. They make it to the Hq 49 yl but are forced to send it off back to us.

We get it again deep and take a touchback to bring it to our 20 yl. A toss is made to Bing Lim a couple plays in but it's INTERCEPTED again at the HQ 39 yl...

4th_INT_hq_39.png

The lines swap out as the crowd is once again awed at the interception. Dallas makes it up field more to our 19 yl with States Man getting a clutch swat to force a 4th down yet again saving us from a TD with some miscommunication issues from Dallas QB Ferdinand Martin to a receiver.

Statesman_keeping_us_in_it_4th_down.png

The Dallas kicker comes out again and nails another one to make it 30-23 Dallas nearing the half way mark of the quarter.

Dal_30_23.png

Dallas kicks it off back to us with Element "The Watchman" catching this one and running it up to our 26 yl. Cipher "The Maverick" makes a beauty 1st down run to the HQ 43. We keep the drive going getting to our 35 yl with "The Juice" plowing up field where he goes down and it's measured for a first down check.........

Juice_measurement_for_1stdown.png

It's ruled good for a 1st down on the Dallas 46 yl, but once again they hold us there and we're forced to get rid of it...

Getting it back Dallas gets to their 18 yl and again with some short passes to their 30 for a 1st down. They call timeout. It's coming down to the wire now but the boys still feel good despite the tough match playing out as Dallas goes over some plays a pep talk. If they get a good drive here for a TD it's most likely over as this has been a hard fought game and the last few possession might mean the game. After the timeout concludes the Rangers line back up and run the clock down a bit as the snap comes back to QB Ferdinand Martin, he is pressured and has to adjust left and back slightly but he sends one off up left field WHERE IT'S AN...

The crowd erupts as the momentum shift can be felt and the lines switch out on both sides with Arcane Lurker 'bumping' the boys and pats going around as the crowd drowns out the commentary.

Nemesis "The Skull" chugs it in for a 1st down after the interception to the Dallas 30 with Fin Arfin securing another 1st down to the Dallas 19!

Crowd is electric as a TD feels incoming with under 2 mins to go...Kal finds Cipher "The Maverick" who finds his way to the Dallas 3 yl!

Kal goes over a play with the boys as the clock ticks down and they form up with the crowd deafening and hard to hear through it. Kal calls the play loudly and a snap is made back to him....

Kal spots "The Juice" up left of center and lobs one to him...!

"The Juice" snags it in the end zone for a TOUCHDOOOOOOOOOWN!

Crowd blows up as "The Juice" balls his fists and slams the chest logo! The boys mob him as the crowd is elated! You know White Shark nails that extra point and it's 30-30 tied up!

HQ_ties_it_30_30.png

Under a minute and a half to go we kick it off back to Dallas and they get to their 22 yl and held there for 3 downs. Roguey "The Stealthy" makes a swat to force the 4th down before it's kicked off back to us!

Roguey_swat.png

Oyster Sauce catches the punt and brings it up to the HQ 38 and a short catch to Ninety Eight to our 44 yl with Fin Arfin getting a 1st down at the HQ 49! Kal runs the clock down instead of risking anything and for the 2nd game in a row we are going to ooooooovertiiiiime!

[ Overtime ]

Setting the mood. Hard to choose a good O.T song.

[ Overtime ]

Both teams come out, some fatigue showing now but eyes still alert as Kalzone "The Bomber" and QB Ferdinand Martin make their way to center field after both teams make their way to their respective sides...

QB Ferdinand Martin calls 'tails'...

Coin lands on 'heads'.

Kal chooses to receive the ball to start Overtime as the crowd roars in volume as all it takes is one possession to end it.

Dallas kicks it off high to us with Element "The Watchman" getting to the HQ 19 yl. Kal finds Cipher "The Maverick" up center at the HQ 22 where a Ranger player goes down awkwardly for an injury.

Dal_injury_elbow.png

Cipher "The Maverick" is found again, getting to the HQ 32 but we're held there until 4th down and forced to punt it off...

The crowd becomes uneasy as this resilient veteran stacked Dallas teams get it back now in overtime for the first time.

Getting it back, Dallas is able to make a push upfield to our 49 yl and a 1st down at our 36... oh man... QB Ferdinand Martin is held for a play and goes for a long toss up center right to try and end it but Lord Rumbles swats that down for a 3rd down. On 3rd down QB Ferdinand Martin makes a short toss over center where Red Seven collides with the receiver bringing him down but suffering an injury as he goes down with the Ranger on top of him dislocating his shoulder!

Red7_shoulder_injury.png

Red Seven heads off to the sideline to a bench and drapes his arm over the bench back seat and drops his weight down on his armpit, popping his shoulder back in. He'll take a hit to his Strength for a week or so with soreness but he's not out. He sits for a play though as our Medical Staff goes over him and checking his rotation and movement range...

Back on the field QB Ferdinand gets a snap back on his 3rd down and tosses again up right but Rand "The Shade" gets some hands on that one saving a catch with a nice swat forcing a forth down as the Dallas player crashes to the ground trying to make the catch.

Rand_forces_4th_down_fgattempt.png

Crowd is noisy again but nervous as Dallas brings out the kicker to seal the victory with a FG attempt......
This could be it... the crowd behind the field goal posts makes as much noise as they can and wave around everything to try and distract the kicker to force a miss...
The snap is made back...placed...and the kick is off...

BUT IT'S WIDE RIGHT AND DOINKS! THE RIGHT POST! STILL ALIVE! STILL 30-30!

FG_MISS_WTF.png

Fans are loud as Kal comes back out for a second chance in overtime to make something happen as we take over at the HQ 36 yl.

Kal finds "The Juice" who gets to the HQ 38 and Bing Lim helping us to push up to the HQ 41 but Dallas is set on holding us with no first down... We contemplate just going for it with a pass or run play but a punt off is safer and Wndrbr Boots drives it out far away to keep the Rangers from being too close to our end zone...

Dallas gets it back and makes it to their 36 yl. The boys hold them for a down but they make a pass up center that just just inside for a first down at the Dallas 46 yl. QB Ferdinand Martin makes a failed toss left and another right which fails making it a 3rd down. The guys on both teams are fatigued with all the back and forth running and it's showing... QB Ferdinand Martin calls a timeout on 4th down to allow his guys to rest up for a bit as we do the same...

Timeout is over and both teams come out back to the field as QB Ferdinand Martin calls the play... It's a fake hand off left to a right hand off to a Ranger running back who finds a seam narrowly avoiding the tackles from the D as he moves up field and to the left on a last effort dash with a teammate behind him for a block as he gasses out and stumbles into the end zone....for a touchdown win in overtime.... 36-30....

Dal_wins_36_30_ot.png

M.V.P of the game is #98 Dolf Morisette for the Dallas Rangers with 4 tackles on the day, and credit for several key blocks and 1 sack. ( No I'm not showing him )

Well boys...there's the first loss. Can't win them all as the streaks won't last forever... unless you know, you eat poorly that week and... miss a laundry day or 2...youknowwhatimean. Anyway...That was honestly a fun game and was long to write up as we nearly clinched the comeback in a 2nd O.T in a row. One win after the Emeralds almost crawled back only to go down the next game in similar fashion. Can't fuckin make this up lol... what a game regardless of the "L". Will post a follow up when I can and announce game 5. Hope you enjoyed it...

[ LBL Insider ]

Following Monday's game, Kalzone was asked for comment.

His response seemed at first unintelligible and nonsensical, with muttered half words as his head constantly jerked in and out of the pickup range of the mic.

"...game was...mmf...hard-fought...fair and honest..."

The reporters eagerly leaned forward, waiting. After a long pause and a deep breath, Kal faced the mic squarely. He pulled out a small paper with apparently hand-written notes.

"I have been instructed to say that this was a tough game that honors the spirit of Legend League football. Furthermore, I have been told to have nothing but respect for the opposing team." Kal slaps the note down on the table and looks up at the reporters.

"I have been very sternly instructed not to say that the Dallas Rangers are now on my shitlist and will get what's coming to them. I would never dream of saying anything contrary to what Coach wants, so of course it goes without saying that I would not in any way wish to imply that Martin screwed with the wrong man and hurt the wrong linebacker. Never in my life would I-"

Eager to egg Kal on, one reporter pushed foolishly close to the table and stuck his microphone in Kal's face.

"Mr. Kalzone, tell us how you really feel about the fact you lost the game despite finally winning the opening coin to-"



With that, Kal walked out of the room.

[Jordy]

I wouldn't say Kal won the coin toss, more like Ferdinand lost it. The curse is not yet broken.

[ LBL INSIDER ]

Reporters were able to catch Coach Classix, following Saturday afternoon practice for a comment after not hearing anything from him the last couple games...

Reporter: Haven't heard anything from you following the Seattle or Dallas games, can we get anything from you today Coach?

Coach Classix: * pops a lozenge * Yeah I've been under the weather the last week or so. With all the travelling and people to see and interact with I must have caught something so I've not been in the talkative mood lately. Seattle and the helmet nonsense... that's to be expected from some teams, the other teams watch our games, they hear what we say and how we are. There's going to be those that test the team from time to time with our own brand of 'play' or just to get out their own team frustrations... we got the win, Kal and boys handled it. Regarding the loss to Dallas... it was a hard fought game, we trailed for most of it... it's a team of mostly veterans so they didn't crack under the pressure and it came down to Overtime again, it wasn't a blowout or something we're overly upset about. Losses are bound to happen and if the first one has to be against a skilled veteran packed team that went down to the wire where we kept them on their toes and didn't allow them to run away with it...that'll work.

Reporter: Can we get an update for OLB Lore Gamer, HB Vergil "The Vampire" and LDT Manny von Carstein for Monday's game 5?

Coach Classix: Yeah the last week or so we've had Lore Gamer and Vergil around 80-90% for a return and Manny's toe is manageable as he's been going over leading off on his other foot and he says it's not bothering him. They're insisting they be cleared for the next game and I've seen their range of motion and pivoting, and they do appear to be near 100%, as far as they are showing anyway. I don't think I can convince them to sit this one out like the last one... so all three will be returning to the lineup for Monday's game. Also before any of you ask about the incident earlier this week: "Don't get too close to the animals."

... the interview ends with Coach Classix walking down the hallway with Offensive and Defensive coordinators to the HQ locker room with playbooks in hand...

After the Week 4 wrap up we received 25 franchise bucks giving us 300 total so I purchased the Stadium Facility "Bar". It fits the team theme and the other 3 options at 300 for +10% income had a chance to cause facility damage which would cost us money for repairs so I thought it was the better of the 4 options as the negative for "Bar" is a chance for a player to get a morale drop from being publicly drunk and cause some scandal/issue.
