Raptors. Rays. 'Nuff said? Not quite. Like I said yesterday, today at the the Ray's stadium was Red Raptor day. And it was PACKED. I never realized how many raptors lived in Aurora. I guess no one has, seeing as how Red Raptors are masters of disguise. To the game we go. It started out like every other game in league history, with a brilliant singer singing the SBL's (Splatterball league) opening game song. The Raptors are pumped up. All of them. Including the team. Wienczyslaw Wenczeslaw started off the game with a sweet back-flip goal, but was injured while trying to stick the landing. I give him an A+ for effort, but an F- for finish. He shattered his ankle, much like when you throw a large rock at a not-so strong window. He has to sit out, so now it's 5 on 6. Ivan Anseli scores from 70m out. It's only a 4-point game when Peoria flanks Thomas Borgiano and Bryon Willsen collide on the field. Both rupturing their spleens. All who's left now is Ivan Anseli, Randy Yamahasaki and J.J. Zahla. Things just keep getting worse for the Raptors, Aurora scores 5 more points and is up by 1. They start getting a little too cocky,Rays center flank Hunter Gaither started taunting Randy Yamahasaki. The two started to brawl, and both were ejected. It's now Ivan and J.J. against 5 Rays. Down by 1. 1 minute left to play. J.J. passes to Ivan. They're charging down the field. Back to J.J. Back to Ivan. Fakes to J.J. Passes to himself. Between the legs, off the ground. GOAL!!!! Tie game. Aurora now charges the field, the Raptors are outnumbered this time. When all of a sudden, Wienczyslaw Wenczeslaw gets back in the game! He intercepts a bad pass and heaves it up field to Anseli. Who puts in the game-winning goal as time expires.
Peoria remains the top team in the league with Ventura still right behind them. Ventura pulled off a huge victory over the previously undefeated Milwaukee Titans. Boise Steam made a big jump in the standings, jumping into Division 2. And also the most surprising news, the Newark Sloths actually WON their game against Omaha. Because of that loss, the Boars dropped from Division 2 to Division 4.
