"Well sports fans that’s a big thank you to the Chairman of the NAF, Mr. Jervis Johnson. So Bob, what’s new?"
"Well Jim, it seems that the lure of mega-bucks has dragged some of the Blood Bowl ‘oldies’ out of retirement and back onto the pitch this season."
"Does this mean that we’ll be seeing the legendary, six season veteran, ‘Ole Bony-Pegleg-McNasty’ of ‘Night Horrors’ fame Bob?"
" ‘Fraid not Jim, not after the practice match the Night Horrors had against the ‘Midgard Marauders’ and their new Star Player acquisition ‘Wilhelm Chaney’ the Werewolf."
"He sure has got a taste for those Undead teams Bob!"
