RE: (S26) - PT 4 - It could be a bowling alley! - TheRocheLimit - 12-26-2020
It's a warm and cozy Christmas morning. Although the weather outside might be frightful the fire inside is so delightful. Jack Banks is relaxing in his recliner when he hears the doorbell ring. Checking his Ring doorbell via his phone he sees that a package has been delivered. Banks slowly rises from his easy chair, finishes his Manhattan, and makes his way to the door. The delivery driver is long gone but a rather large package rests on the doormat. Jack picks up the package and brings it inside. Back inside his cozy home, Banks takes a look at the the delivery. The return address says, simply, "Skywalker". Banks opens the package and immediately sees a #12 Honolulu Hahalua jersey and a handwritten note. Jack takes the jersey and the note to the kitchen where he makes himself another cocktail and reads over the letter.
"Hey Jack,
As promised, here is my jersey from earlier this year. It's even got the grass stains from the two sacks you got on me. We got the last laugh, though. Thanks for our first (and so far only) win!
Happy holidays,
Luke"
Jack smiles as he takes a look at the jersey. He grabs his own jersey from the last game and begins to put it in a box. Outside the snow keeps falling...

The package is big. Inside are several items, it appears to be a whole new set of football equipment. Brandon Booker decides to try on his new equipment at the next Orange County otters practice, but something seems wrong. As soon as he puts his helmet on everything seems much darker than usual, but he dismissed it as just him adjusting to a new visor. Stepping out onto the field he found it difficult to track his receiver and to locate the football, but the alarm bells weren’t ringing in Booker’s head quite yet.
The second indication that something was wrong came the first time that Booker tried to cut. Booker was matched up with Owen Holloway, who made a move to the outside that required Booker to match it and cut outside himself. His cleat got caught in the turf, and after the play he noticed that one of his studs had almost come clean out of the sole. These cleats were definitely worse than his usual ones.
Maybe two mishaps could be dismissed as a coincidence, but three surely couldn’t. In a style befitting his performances during Season 26, starting quarterback Suleiman Ramza threw a late pass to the flat. Booker broke on the route, and thought he had an easy interception that he would’ve returned for a touchdown. Instead, the ball sprung off the gloves of the usually sure-handed defensive back.
At this point, Booker began to wonder if someone had played some sort of prank or tried to sabotage him. He began asking his teammates if they’d sent him a package recently. They all denied it. Confused, as soon as he got home he dug the the package out of the trash. The stamp was still attached, bearing the name of the state where the package had been sent. It had come from Texas.
Suddenly, everything made sense. With the Austin Copperheads and Orange County Otters both 8-4 and battling for the first seed in the ASFC, either a player or GM of the Copperheads had tried to sabotage the Otters #1 corner. Booker shook his head, laughed it off, and turned his attention to Week 13.

Mason Gillion got a random package from an unknown sender. When opening up the package it was a picture of Gillion on the bench during the DSFL playoffs in his first season. Attached was a stat sheet from that game. 0 snaps played. Along with that was a note staying the following "from the bench in the playoffs to DSFL probowl CB/FS and Ultimini Champion." Further down on the not was a quote from Gillion from one of his interviews "I felt useless on the bench during the playoffs and I couldn't help my team win. I'll make sure that they can't afford to keep me on the bench next season."
Gillion went from Nickle cornerback to Starting Free safety and nickel cornerback. He never left the field on defense and he made the probowl.
In Gillions first year in the ISFL he hasn't made the impact he would have liked. He was the 3rd cornerback on the depth chart and is the primary nickel cornerback. He has had an OK rookies season, wasn't expected to be a starter but nonetheless he isn't happy with his lack of production. Much like his first season in the DSFL, he wanted to make more of an impact in his ISFL debut. The picture that he recieved was a very good reminder that hard work in the off season pays dividends in the regular season. Whoever sent the picture and note to Gillions knew exactly what he needed to motivate himself to be much better next season and be ready to make an impact.

A package was delivered on Jake Fencik's door three months ago. On it, it said 'do not open until 12/26.' Jake Fencik spent the next few months wondering what was inside the package, and who sent it. A few times he thought about opening it, but decided against it every time. On the final day of his Christmas stream event, Fencik decided to open the package on stream. Finally the day arrived, it was time to open the package. What could be inside it? Money? A check? A football? The answer was none of these as once Fencik opened it, there was another box inside. And then inside that box there was another box. And then there was a layer of wrapping paper, maybe inside this there would actually be something. There wasn't, there was just another box. This went on for twenty layers when finally Fencik got to the last layer. Inside was a piece of paper, on it the paper said: "If you opened this early, curiosity killed the cat. If you didn't, well done." Jake Fencik and his viewers were disappointed. The sender of this joke was never discovered, Fencik suspected his old Philly GM, but never knew for sure.

Golladay initially thought his mystery gift was some late arrival Christmas gift, which were likely true to an extent. Upon discovering that another player had sent it, he was quite surprised. Getting a gift from a league friends wasn't entirely surprising. After all, he'd gotten already gotten a Hottest Simulation Football League promotional letter from his favorite recently retired geometric shape and a Buffalo Ramblers championship trophy from the two GMs that that prospect bowl team had produced, among other gifts. But all of those had made it clear who they'd come from. This time, all he found inside was an alarm clock. Frankly, that didn't narrow things down at all. Maybe it was his updater Frost, sick of all the mistakes, trying to get him to update before he was tired late at night. Maybe it was his from his ISFL GMs, Crunk and Z-Whiz, trying to get him to actually remember to earn TPE and update on time. Maybe it was his GM bosses in Tijuana trying to get him to remember to do things like scouting and sim testing before the last minute. Maybe it was even someone form a past fantasy group trying to remind him to make his picks on time. The possibiliities were endless.

The thing that would come for me on christmas day from my Gm's is the same thing that comes to me every night in my nightmares, Chocolate milk. Our lawyers have told us that we can't talk about our milk preferences in the workplace anymore. Head Office has warned us about the issues that we've had about the "discussions on milk preferences" that have occurred. Oh no make no mistake they wouldn't put their name on the package and they never send the same kind of chocolate milk twice. They might be Heathens following the wrong milk faith but they are artisans in a way like that. In a power move I give the Chocolate milk right back to them but in classic Minnesota Passive-aggressive combat. I Demean chocolate milk constantly and find flaws in it despite never letting the black moo touch my lips. A more devious Long term plan I've enacted is to trick them into drinking Strawberry milk. They've drunk over a gallon of Strawberry milk this season alone and don't even know it. Personally, I think that they'd think dark-colored Strawberry milk is actually great chocolate milk but again, I don't allow the black moo to cross my lips. We're trying to drink milk out here everyone doesn't complicate it too much.

Written Option: A package has been delivered to your door. One of the labels says it’s a gift from someone else in the league, but there are no other details. When you open it, what do you find inside? Who do you think it’s from and why would they send it? Is it new equipment that will set your player up for success in the last part of the season, a pair of tickets to a game in one of the affiliate leagues, or some other random and unexpected thing? (please keep it PG)
i got a package from @Daybe and from the looks of it @Kotasa also likely signed the package in his special sauce. in it was a book full of quotes from the chosen one (jruutu) as well as 2 tickets to go and see his latest show in which he discusses equality and the large forces in play that dictate race politics.
jruutu is something of an expert at the subject, well amongsts that and others such as womens place in society today as we know it. jruutu is known as something of a genius in these circles and being able to go to a gig of his is more than a performance or entertainment, its like therapy listening to his intricate ways.
jruutu the king has done gigs in all the major leagues, such as the SHL, gomhl and vhl but has not done one here in the isfl, the pbe too has has actually, he did on in the sba too i think yes, this will be v groundbreaking to listen to his groundbreaking insights on todays world. he is a visionairy much like the man known as david barton, he is also a god in this respect.
that was the package from the gift from my friends thank you
