While you got a Google tab open, read about the Forer Effect.
The game was close until, with two minutes to go in the half, Grey Whiskers scored with a "moving the goalpost" strategy. Up until that point, One inch had been holding his own with the effective, yet unoriginal, larping/Nazi gambit, which fizzled and appeared desperate due to repetition by the end of the half.
With seconds to go, 1 inch attempted a Hail Mary with a "google it" attempt, which failed horribly and can't feel good going into the locker room.
Late in the second quarter, One inch adopted a passive/aggressive stance at one point, after he had been dealt a devastating blow and seemed to buckle. After getting up off the turf, he adopted a "wait. why are you being so aggressive and pickin' on lil old me" stance. This lack of machismo worries me for when we get to the championship rounds.
Grey whiskers could put this game away in the second half if he would pump the breaks, only occasionally, and come at the One inch defense with some biting sarcasm and semi humorous retorts. As it is, the 1 inch defense is ready for the attack and knows what to expect
The second half looks to be more of the same, unless the coaches make some adjustments in the locker room.
If they don't, look for the wily veteran, grey whiskers, to pull off the win over the able challenger. One inch is running out of offense, and is in danger of losing the crowd, who grows weary of the overused larping/Nazi gambit. If team grey whiskers avoids mistakes and turnovers, their overall aggressiveness should be enough to win the day.
Back to you, Chris.
Thanks, Jim. Yes, it's been a great game so far, but I, for one, could use a few more laughs. Why so serious!! Hahaha. Speaking of serious. let's take a break for a message from our sponsor here on PMSBC, Liberal Douche.
