Second game in the Sea Devils league, second loss for the HAMBURG SEA LIONS. Which translates to already being the worst start to a season since S56. They started 0–3 that season, after losses to the Gilets Jaunés, Rio Galaxy and the Surnise City Prairie Dogs. We were fortunate to get a few minutes of Play Coordinator Till Luckmans time after the game to ask some questions:
SDSC: Thank you for your time, Till. Let's get right to it: The last time you started that bad was in S56. What's missing right now? Till: Thank you. Well, what's missing? Experience, and there's still a lot of skill to be learned by the young squad. You don't have to look any further as to everything that happened in the first quarter. It was men against boys in every which sense. 22yo Bodo Schubert get's beaten by 31yo David Herea? 22yo Willi Jäger has no chance against 32yo Catalin Mitrea? Well, d'uh. SDSC: You sure dug a hole for yourself in these first 15 Minutes. All the more encouraging it has to be what you saw in the second quarter. Till: Indeed it was. Overall the squad played really tight, if you put those miscues on the deep touchdowns aside. And you cannot oversee the fact that we should have kicked more instead of going for it on 4th and forever. That maybe wouldn't have made all the difference on the scoreboard, but it sure has a different overall feel to score once in a while. That's some playcalling issue which has to be attended to. SDSC: The attendance to this first home game of the season, against one of the most renowned teams of the league even, was OK, but far from sold out. Do you think the heat these days affected the spectators? Maybe even your squad? Till: Well, I guess that's something we have to get accustomed to. And no, I don't think it affected the squad. The Ravens came to play in the same conditions, and maybe they have played more games in very warm stadiums, but that was not the difference today. SDSC: Worst start since S56, as we said... but you were able to turn things around then to finish the season with a record of 9–7. You still had Nicolò Stanzetti, though. Your current QB-room did not experience something like this before. How do you think they'll handle this sitution? Till: Bryant and Alfredo are handling the situation very good. They both are aware that this season will be a completetly different adventure than the last and put in everything they can. They are, of course, no Nicolò Stanzetti, who is a member of our own Hall of Fame for a reason. But don't forget that he was already well past 30 when we turned that season around back then, and the squad had played a lot more football together overall. As I said earlier: It comes down to experience and playing time. That's what we're lacking, and which will only resolve over time. We're hungry, though... and we will try to find ways to get the best out of the players we have. SDSC: Thank you for your time.  Last edited on 2025-07-02 13:18:07 by Chrill |

Week 2
BALANDIS BLASTS BACK Enough in the Tank’ – QB Fires Back After 0–2 Start Voiceover – Kanar : Former Alpine Ducks Franchisee Owner, now, SDSC Analyst: “The Manta Rays may be winless, but don’t tell Edgaris Balandis he’s done. After two straight losses to powerhouses Michigan and the Runners, the 33-year-old QB is catching heat—not just for his play, but the new purple hair do. Captain RedZone Rick asked him point-blank if he’s still got what it takes, and Balandis? He didn’t flinch.  Source: https://imgur.com/Y6X6w68.png (Pictured : Manta Rays Star Edgaris Balandis ) Captain RedZone Rick: “Edgaris, tough start to the season. You’ve started the season 0-2. Are The Rays a one season wonder? Has the bubble burst? What’s the mood like in that locker room right now?” Edgaris Balandis: “It’s not where we want to be, Rick. No one likes being 0-2. But suggesting the bubble has burst is disrespectful, lets keep some perspective. We knew the schedule was brutal out of the gate. Michigan and the Runners—those are two former Elite sides. So we’re not hitting the panic button.” Captain RedZone Rick: “Fans are frustrated, and to be honest, some pundits are starting to raise questions about you specifically—your age, your arm, the purple hair! Do you still have the ability to lead this team. What have you got left in the tank? Balandis (smirking): “You wanna know what I’ve got left in the tank? Enough. Enough to silence every desk jockey fantasy football nerd with a hot take and a asthma inhalor. This arm may be 33, but it’s still got the zip. And the purple hair? That’s staying until we’re back in the playoffs.” (pauses, looking straight down the camera) “You want to doubt me possums? Fine. Just don’t be the same ones cheering when we flip the script. AGAIN! The Rays welcome Divisional Rivals Derbent Convicts in Week 3... Last edited on 2025-07-02 23:03:42 by butchpt6 |

Naughty possums poking fun at our overly mature QB. Some say the Stig sent him a zimmer frame after the Runner's game. Actually we all chipped in and later sent a bouquet of gladiolus after watching the deep fake interview.
