Thanks for the ball, harmless. We’ve gotta finish these Wallflower chumps off, so someone from Team Two nab this pass…!
Got it. I’m going for the win, so one more pass.
Who wants to be a hero?
…and I’ll just borrow that ball from you for a moment, Mr. Chitwood, and pass it on to…
verbenabeast makes an INCREDIBLE break on the ball and, after the interception, he is all alone down the sideline…
Verbenabeast makes a bad dribble and the ball squirts away. I stick out my foot in an attempt to roll it up my leg and into my waiting hands, but the ball’s much too fast and caroms off my chin.
and back to verbenabeast… who is not sure if he can play it off the rebound… but instead of standing around looking confused, he distracts the ref’s by flexing his massive bicepts and heaving the ball at the endzone hoping to score the big winning goal… and…
I swear I know how to spell biceps…
::bonk::
right in the head, thank ya very much!
Ok, lucky I have good reflexes, but now what?!?!
A little to the left, and scoot right, ducks, a spin and SLAM!
I dunno what I hit twirling there…but tell me I took one for the team and scored!
Gyrate’s move was the last legal one, I think. You’ve gotta mention who you get the ball from or just quote it.
I guess I’ll just take it back from Gyrate, then.
A Reader’s Digest version of the rules for the new folks:
Your team is determined by the first letter of your username:
Ravenous Wallflowers: A,C,E,G,I,K,M,O,Q,S,U,W or Y
Fire On Pants: B,D,F,H,J,L,N,P,R,T,V,X or Z
Post the name of the person you’re taking the ball from, or just quote their post (feel free to get fancy with your move description).
If you’re the third consecutive person from your team to get the ball, you can score, or you can pass it and hope a teammate gets it. That person can score two points, or pass it. If they pass to a teammate, that person will score three.
Once you’ve touched the ball, you can’t touch it again until there’s been a score or a turnover.
Ok? Great…The game is to 11 points, Fire On Pants is currently winning 9-4. Game on!
**Jimmy Chitwood ** passes to…
JimSox5, who after biffing the last play after being confused and still not wearing any pants, grabs the pass from Jimmy Chitwood. He then proceeds to realize that he has no pants on, and sets down the ball to attend to that problem. Meanwhile, the unguarded ball is gathered up by. . .
BraheSilver, poking the ball away from JimSox5 with a convenient 10-foot pole. Instead of going for a point, he looks for a teammate who can end the game in one shot and throws it to…
Nightwatch who catches Brahe’s pass and throws it into the goal with a triumphant gesture it’s a two-pointer and FIRE ON PANTS WINS WINS WINS!
<TWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!>
Jimmy Chitwood to **JimSox5 ** to **BraheSilver ** to Nightwatch Trailer for the two pointer!
And that’s the game! Congratulations to Team Pants On Fire!
Ok, someone take this whistle from me…I want in, coach!
JimSox5 gingerly limps after an accidental shot to the crotch from BraheSilver and his ten-foot pole to celebrate the Fire on Pants victory!
Next game! New teams?
Good game, FOP. I think Nightwatch and harmless are the co-TVP’s- that’s Top-most Valuable Player, as M is on the other team.
I’ll ref it, Hal, but you’re still the commish. Same teams?
Sorry for the errant probing, JimSox5. High-fives for Team Pants On Fire!
I’ll sit this next game out. Got any beer left, swampbear?
Speaking of swampbear, after all the complimenting of nice butts, I get my pants pulled down, and no compliment? Should I be ashamed of my body?
Yeah!
Do I get a trophy?
Let’s get this ball into play! (or are all you wussies in bed? )
I’ma go Derek Fisher on yo behinds, punks!
TWEEEEET!
(I have a whistle).
I’ll tell you when the ball’s in play, thank you very much.
Ball’s in play. This one’s to seven points.
