Warrior General Games

The following incident occured during the coin toss before the Morocco-Gambia game:

Ref: "Gambia - Call it in the air."
Cheating Gambia Captain: "Both"
Fine upstanding Moroccan citizen, philanthropist and team captain: "What the? Yeah, I protest...."

So there you have it, sports fans. Gambia cheated even before we played the game. So we're protesting. In a gesture of amazing sportsmanship, we are offering to accept total and complete surrender - and a forfiet win. Gambia - you may accept these terms by send us a big bag of simulated cash. You are welcome......

I am afraid Gambia will not surrender. ZULU ZULU ZULU

We held you to 66 points. We should get some kind of certificate or ribbon of achievement or something for that, right?

I've never thought losing to a team 66-0 was an achievement.

Of course it is an achievement. I mean we could have done something silly like lost by 3 points or something like that. Then we would be agonizing over woulda shoulda coulda..... but nooooo not us..... This way we can look at it and say we were 34% better this game than last game..... see a dramatic improvement.

Your just not looking at this thing the right way. So get a ladder turn it sideways and climb then you should get the optimal viewing angle.

I suspose when your team hasn't won a game all season and when your team has failed to score a point, let alone a TD and the average points per game conceded is 84, then things get that despirate and you have to look for the tiniest bit of hope possible.

Some people say the glass is half full, some say it is half empty.

I'm just happy that no one has crapped in my glass. Thanks for trying to, though!

I tell ya Doc we need to show these people the numbers to show em how swell we are. Think we could get one of the profs to come and run some numbers to show em..... Well maybe not I mean it is not like they would understand them since most of em barely speak English....

Wow, I'm just happy somebody calculated the average loss for the team. We only took over three games ago, so our average loss is actually higher than that. We are busy tearing down the statues and defacing the paintings of the previous administration and his robotic army of CPU players. Then, and only then, will we begin to fight.

I'm still trying to figure out what a despirate is.

Is it worse than a despot? Better? What's the exchange rate?

Hmmm maybe it is some new slang term for a wannabe pirate? I would have assumed it would be a defpirate but then perhaps they would think it was a hard of hearing pirate so they changed it to des..... but then again it could be just a case of dis information laid out to confuse us on our trek for true global domination.... oh crap did I actually say that out loud....

Just forget I said that. Nothing to see here move along....

Well we are an african team, so we shouldn't really be speaking english anyway, but whatever, if you guys wanna make fun because i spelled a word wrong, feel free, but i would hardly call that "not being able to speak english"

Hey I was talking about the proffesors at our alma mater that could not speak English so well. We were just trying to actually figure the etymology of the word despirate.

He was making fun of where we went to college, not you. I took me a second to realize it as well, and I went there, so I can understand your confusion.

Our Calculus TAs were generally all asain. Speaking english fluenty was not a prerequisite for the position. It was a crapshoot whether you got a good TA or a bad TA.

That's what he was talking about, not you.
