Rogmesh hated Rat Ogres. He hated them even more than he hated Sunday school. And every game, seemed he was bellied up to a Rat Ogre. It was like he had a sign hanging round his neck that said, 'Rat Ogre Parking'. Shredder on Roids a few games ago and now Warpfang. And possibly Murderfang next game. Ok, so Rat Ogres do have the coolest names. Rogmesh would give them that.
Tonight, as he sat at the top of the Coal Butte, Rogmesh was not alone. Tonight, he was joined by legends. Natalie had stopped by along with 'Trampoline' Cali and Patrick 'Boss' Lear. Natalie Johnson and Cali were both knocked out of the FA Cup and of course Boss Lear was retired and had brought the darn thing with him! The only current legend not here was Power Slave. He had just joined the club and was the only other legend beside Flingsnake whose season hadn't ended.
They passed the FA cup around to Natalie. As she drank the Coal Butte shine from the gaudy trophy cup, it was as close as she had ever come to it. Trampoline Cali had won the FA cup a few seasons back, Flingsnake had come so close in season 3 but lost in a shoot-out and of course, Boss Lear had just taken the darn thing home with him and just put it on his mantle bringing it down only for special occasions such as needing something to drink out of when you were behind on dishes.
Rogmesh still hadn't gotten totally over the loss to Flatwoods. Trampoline Cali had come down this evening from Flatwoods, a small subdivion of a town just north of Coal Butte. Rogmeshs' forehead still had the boot imprints on it from her cleats as she leapt over him for the win. But she had brought some recreational herbs, so she was cool.
'Trampoline Cali, Boss Lear, wow such cool nicknames! Rogmesh was sure Natalie had one yet, but Flingsnake only had a super lame one - Rogmesh 'Rat Ogre Parking' Flingsnake. Didn't exactly roll off the tongue.
But the game earlier in the evening did have a special guest star - Glart Smashrip. Ather this whole nonsense a few games ago about Flingsnake being better than a Mega Star, well this was a good chance to prove coach Joey wrong. Glart, while not a Mega Star was about as close as the NWBL allowed. He tripped turn one and was seriously injured on the immediate boot to the groin. Oh well, so much for that comparison. Nothing was proven one way or the other. Perhaps we will never know for certain.
Natalie 'Three EFL Cups' Johnson, Trampoline Cali, Boss Lear and Rogmesh 'Rat Ogre Parking' Flingsnake drank well into the night until they stumbled off the hill.
