Slow & Painful 0 - 2 Hutta Hurta

It was a very sunny day at Stadio D'Agostino, as two teams prepared for some good old fashioned Blood Bowl. The two teams facing off were the dwarven team Slow & Painful, coached by dwarfrunner, and the orc team Hutta Hurta coached by Cramy. This was gonna be a real grudge match between two teams that like to beat the poop out of their opponent.
With the first kick-off, Hutta Hurta opts to receive and the game is under way. Hutta scoops up the ball and surprisingly quickly form a cage near mid field. They make their way up the field, and a large scrum ensues in the middle of the field, with dwarf and orc fists flying everywhere. S&P seemed to be put on their heels easily, trying to keep up with the Hutta blitzers and the strength of the Black Orcs. Then the worst thing for S&P happened, Gargrim Thornspike was injured by the blitzer Wuhaa and had to be carted off the field, never to return this game. Now Slow & Painful would have to play the game a man down. And with that Zuin had an easy time and walked into the endzone unopposed just before half time. S&P didn't have enough time to score before the half was over, so one of the longbeards attempted to foul an Orc as payback for hurting his teammate. Unfortunately, he failed to hurt the orc and the ref caught him, sending him off the field, that is what you would call a really stupid move, folks.
Slow & Painful received in the second half, and had alot of work ahead of them. Marak Ironball picked up the ball way in the backfield and the dwarves prepared to show where they got their name from. Because watching them on offence, they are really slow moving, and it' painful to watch. Surprisingly, the remaining dwarves managed to hold off the orc team and move forward very slowly. In a sudden surprising and dumbfounding move, Marak handed the ball off to Aran Winghelm and told him to make a break for the other side of the field. The remainder of the dwarves saw this and attempted to hold up the orcs, hoping to give Aran a chance to score. But their tactic was seriously flawed, and Hutta easily blitzed the dwarf and knocked the ball free. Then they picked up the ball and made their way for the endzone, with dwarves throwing themselves at the team trying to stop them, unsuccessfully. The dwarves did manage a little victory when Snorri Stonefist killed the migty Black Orc Blocker Graav, and Hutta with no apothecary on their staff yet. With that, the score was 2-0 for Hutta Hurta with little time left in the game for one score, let alone two, for Slow & Painful. S&P received the ball again, but knew the game was out of their hand. So both teams ran at each other full steam and tried to hurt as many people as possible in the time left. Snorri managed to badly hurt Bcad, and Zuin badly hurt Aran.
After the game, both teams got 40,00gp and Wuhaa got a new skill, dodge!?!?! That may come in handy in the future.
