The score was 714 to 0.
"You ever try to pass through 15-foot tall defenders?" said a discouraged Notre Dame quarterback, Ron Powlus. "Plus, they kept decapitating my centers."
"'Fighting Irish?'" snorted Warhoon Coach Kab Kadja. "They wouldn't fight at all. Their guys kept running away from us. We killed them, of course."
Kab Kadja wasn't speaking figuratively, either. Warhoon killed half the Notre Dame squad before it was over.
Next year, a Jasoomian team is expected to do better, when the Barsoomian squad will likely be bogged down by Earth's greater gravity.
Several deaths are still anticipated, however.
The Helium Chieftains manhandled the over-matched U-Gor Cannibals today
to claim their 51st straight
jetan title. The Chieftains were again led by league MVP John Carter. The
Warlord had eight kills, including
four crowd-pleasing beheadings. "It really saddens me to kill all those fine young men, but they know the risks," Carter said after the match.
"It was one of the top hundred matches I've seen," said longtime Jetan fan I-Gos, who has attended 837 straight title games.
Tul Axtar, player/coach of the cannibals, lost his head and so was unavailable for comment.
