Game 250 saw a poorly rated coach play his chaos team very well. The Kruelty played rather poorly, but the luck was well on their side for their milestone 250th game. (Home game, ref in pocket)

I had to push him desperatly into the endzone to give myself 2 turns to score in the 1st half, which I barely managed, thanks to skulls for my opponent who was out of re-rolls.

Half 2 saw me try to keep calm under fire, but I eventually cracked as my cage crumbled under the ST4 masses, and I made a desperate hand-off and bolted for the endzone with a dodge I'd have rather not made. A few GFI's put me out of enemy range, and he allowed me to stall for an extra turn, leaving him only 3 to equalize. A re-roll into skulls stalled out his last drive. Lucky me.

As the team moves forward, I'm going to try and turn a few realities into fun markers. The Kruelty draws a lot. A LOT. So the new goal is to get to more draws than losses. After game 250 we stand at 118-55-77. So -22 for the Draw/Loss stat. I'll watch that one. So from here on in, a draw is good, see?

The second is keeping an eye on the Cas Diff stat. I currently sit at -220, and I fully intend to make that go in the PainState direction by sticking with Tackle/Mighty Blow players to counter the elf pressure in the box lately. Nice to play elves. Hard to win often. My DP is a tool I hope to use very sparingly, but like to have for effect.

The DT experiment continues. It hasn't won a game recently, but man, the DT catcher has a massive target on his chest. I can almost move enemy tacklers around the pitch using him as a lure.
