Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
The stereotype suggests that sports and gamers don’t mix, but don’t tell blogger Zachary Houghton that. He imagines a world in which the St. Louis Rams turn to a 14 year-old RPG Game Master for coaching:
[Head Coach] Spagnuolo seemed excited about the possibilities Smythe’s tenure offered. “Clearly, we need some help winning games, and I think a proven Game Master is just the person to turn things around for us”.
The Rams players didn’t seem so sure.
“This kid comes in and tells me I’m a ‘tank’”, said 5th-year center Jason Brown. “I’m supposed to ‘take some hits for the rest of the party’. Why the hell are we having a party anyway with five straight losses?”

Sports and games match perfectly. It’s called Chessboxing!
