It's on like Donkey Kong... SPC v EG part 10!

[lytic]

technically it's part 11, but one was a (not so) friendly match.

Gargoyles

4/27/2004 at 19.40 Load Up The Bus!
We're heading to Nebraska to play SPC. Gargoyle punters were asked to bring their ceremonial hardhats. Several Chicagoland bars will be sponsoring road trips to Starks Pond to see the Gargs play against the SouthPark Cows and their ever so slightly dreaded "Meat Curtain" which is less dominant than the "Cow Curtain" of old.

Fans are encouraged to drink heavily and berate the Cows on their own field. Fans should also take anything that is not nailed down. It's payback time.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The trash talk has started, but it's only text. The Evil Gargs are on a losing streak against SPC, so it's *their* back against the wall. Hopefully if I get time I can have 1 on 1 interviews with members of the Cows to get their feelings on the all important 10th competitive matchup. Make sure you guys get your PPV (HT-Live) set up for Sunday, it's gonna be the match to watch!

[Raven Hawk]

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

COWS - GARGS X

One of the greatest matches in the world goes to its 10th iteration. Watch as the SouthPark Cows play host to the Evil Gargoyles of Chicago, in what's being billed as . . .

THE GREATEST MATCH IN HISTORY

. . . and it hasn't even been played yet. Watch as the two rivals flirt with 100 NSI ratings. Watch as they push and shove each other over the field to gain the advantage. Watch the cletes cut, the kicks flail, and the grass fly in the NO HOLDS BARRED matchup.

To make matters worse, the owners have agreed to hold the match IN A STEEL CAGE. Blood will pour, teeth will fly, goal keepers will brawl!FANS WILL GET DRUNK!


THE REWARD FOR THE WINNER WILL BE GLORY! THE HUMILATION TO THE LOSER WILL BE COMPLETE!

X? You'd think you guys would know how often you've played. :)

Easily the best thread title in a while. :)

I'd say the X is roman numeral for 10 .. but then I'd just guess you were kidding around and now RH and Lytic will make fun of me. . :rolleyes:

As a Gargoyle supporter, I fully expect to have closed-circuit TV made available to me, so I can travel with my team and still observe the mayhem in Nebraska.

[Poli]

I want one as well. Cause, well, I'm AE.

[Raven Hawk]

I've dispatched contractors to New York and Houston respectively to make sure that CC TV is available for viewing at Sweden Heights Arena and Colibri Arena. I have also dispatched high-class hookers to the aforementioned destinations to enhance the viewing experience.

[lytic]

I think we should move the game to Iceland so I can true home field advantage.

[DataKing]

Yet another reason why being a Gargoyle supporter is the way to go! :D

Agreed. That and RH has a cool dog.

Gargoyles Coach Karl "Techmo" Ekmo took a few moments today to comment on the pending SPC/Gargoyle matchup.

"I haff vin playing deh Cows effer seence I haff vin in America. I know what deh importance ees, for Gargoyles to beat deh Cows. Many games I haff played against dem. Dey are fery goot team, especially der striker, Dey and dat Korean defender dey got. But, vee vill beat dem like an ult lady beats a carpet. Den dust fly oot uv dem, like dat, too. Und dey vill vare peenk."

Coach Ekmo has been taking Trash-Talking 101 at the College of Lake County on Wednesdays. Gary Jackson, instructor of the class, implied that Coach Ekmo may need to work a little harder if he expects pass the class.

[lytic]

Techmo 0-1 vs Cows as Coach.

[lytic]

Techmo 0-2 vs Cows as Coach...


COWS WIN 3-0!!!

Go look at the Gargs PINK unis and make fun of him. :p

[Raven Hawk]

Techmo is getting a boot in the ass.

I would have expected it to be a much better game than getting my ass blown away. But, such is the enigma that is hattrick. Both teams were in the top 15 in Div IV.

[lytic]

wow, and we both did a normal... imagine if we MOTSed!

Yeah, I didn't understand the match after looking at the stars and ratings. However, you've done the same to me. May I remind you about our game where I had excellent midfield to your weak?

[Raven Hawk]

Yes, I do remember that. :)

[lytic]

It just goes to show that defense sucks (you had higher ratings) and midfield is everything (I had a slightly higher midfield).

[Alf]

wow, and we both did a normal... imagine if we MOTSed!

You should have both PICed : mutual interest for the following games

[lytic]

but this was a special game. One that both of us wanted to win...

[Raven Hawk]

but this was a special game. One that both of us wanted to win...
Even though we have played 10 times it has been a rare occassion where we both had the luxury of having high TS, most starters healthy, and favorable matchups the following week. It was good to see both our teams play as close to 100% as possible.

[lytic]

cause we usually play at th beginning and the end of the season... but you decided to be cool last season.
