[div align=\\\"center\\\"]Lesean Paris Crooks' Life Outside of Football[/div]

You may know him as an unsung rookie providing a boon to the surging upstart London Royals, but Crooks is even more active off the gridiron. He covers as much ground moving around in his civilian fits as he does in his gameday uniform. With football being his priority, Crooks like to keep himself sharp -- physically and mentally. Often when undergoing treatment or therapeutic rest, Crooks is studying film, analyzing tape to find areas to improve. However, film isnt always at the forefront, Crooks grew up as writer and poet and often writes to keep his mind at ease. Crooks usually takes runs, acquainting himself with the London scenery and finding new inspiration to write about. Crooks still writes music and exchanges music with his buddies in the States, Digital Underground. Crooks plans to immerse himself in the British music scene, hoping to find some undiscovered talent and bring some notes back home during the offseason.

Eventually, Crooks plans to release music with his Digital Underground and Live Squad partners. Otherwise, he continues to write, read, study, and enjoy his music. Crooks ran track in college and also briefly played basketball but ever since coming over to England, he has been fascinated with soccer. Crooks has been keeping up with the top flight in England and Spain. He doesn't have a favorite club yet, and if he did, he wouldn't say because it might anger the London locals. But he often will play random pickup games on a practice pitch just to enjoy the experience. All in all, he's been adjusting well, as it shows in his week in week out performance, and he uses these hurdles as motivation to better himself as player and a person.

Chika Fujiwara has not always been the football player talent that some know her as in the league. Before deciding on sticking with sports, Chika was a young prodigy in music and still plays on her off days. She has kept the same piano set in her house since she was a kid and made sure to move it around to her new home in Baltimore once getting called up to keep herself busy on the weekends. Playing music isn’t the only thing with rhythm that Chika does though and finding her singing and dancing is a normality around the Fujiwara household. Most in any of her team locker rooms can tell you that she spends a lot of time dancing around the area before and after games. She keeps a constant groove in her free time from playing music and dancing to it. However, along with her sports interests, Fujiwara is an excellent volleyball player and coaches a youth league in Baltimore during the offseason. The Baltimore Strikers have gotten a lot of help under Fujiwara with her smarts in the sport. She put down volleyball professionally after getting into football though and sticks to just coaching during the offseason.

Despite Griffin's affinity for the homebody lifestyle, he does enjoy a number of activities outside football. In fact, most are entirely unrelated to football. One such activity is playing drums. He's not terribly talented; in fact, he has no natural sense of rhythm whatsoever. Despite this Porter enjoys playing drums all the same.

Another of Porter's favorite home activities includes putting together jigsaw puzzles. It really gives him the opportunity to bond with his family, but also to flex his mental acuity as well. To be honest, he likes the pictures a lot, too. Be they owls, the moon, mandalas, or anything else aesthetically appealing, Porter is likely drawn to it.

Thirdly, media in its many forms is a hobby of Porter's. This includes, movies, books, video games, music, etc. A favorite of Porter's from each of those categories, respectively, include: Waking Life; the Wardstone Chronicles; the Elder Scrolls; and Say Anything.

Lastly, Porter enjoys spending his time with his cat, Arya. She is a bit on the chonky side, but that makes her all the cuter, he insists. He's pretty sure she would be indifferent to his death, however, that doesn't lessen his love for her. Porter says her favorite times are breakfast and dinner. They also represent the only concept of time that she understands. Those are also her favorite activities.

Football means a lot to Snyder, as he's been wanting to make it to the big leagues ever since he was a little kid. That doesn't mean he has more things to do outside of football as well. Sean Snyder has been a huge gaming geek for the sake of his entire life playing retro games, new generation games, and console games. He has a whole room dedicated to his "hobbies" which is basically just his gaming room. Sean Snyder also likes to do is to jog all over the town just to get that training in, or just for fun. He also loves to play hockey once in a month even though he is really bad at it. He has been a fan of hockey just recently and have traveled to multiple games in Los Angeles as that is his favorite team right now. Snyder feels so lucky to compete with a DSFL team in his hometown because he can still meet his family and friends once he gets home. He loves to spend time with his friends watching sports and drinking booze at his local bar as a celebration party. He has also been told to no longer get wasted after they celebrate a win.

When Tyler is off the field, you can usually find him in the gym. After working with his speed coaches for a long time, he has recently decided to focus on his strength to prepare him for the big league. Once he leaves the DSFL, he'll need to be able to contend with much stronger opponents than what he's currently used to. He'd like to perform well in the bench at the NSFL Combine, so he's focusing particularly on that at the moment.

When not at the gym, Montain is usually out with teammates or friends enjoying a pint at the local pub or brewery. He has very specific taste, and won't go anywhere near an IPA, preferring a nice lager or ale and sometimes a stout. He's also a self proclaimed video game nut, and is regularly found staying up late on the team bus playing Madden or FIFA on his laptop much to the chagrin of his teammates. Montain enjoys watching the NSFL and other sports, especially hockey where he cheers on the Los Angeles Panthers of the SHL. At one point he even thought about playing hockey, but his school's football team was quite good which which offered him a chance at a university scholarship. Instead of studying for his classes, he spent most of his time studying football techniques to increase his chances.

Although Otis Allen is now a dominant force on the defensive line, he initially began his collegiate career as a track and field athlete. He participated competitively in shot put and discus during high school and at the beginning of his freshman year, and although he gave up competing in these events to focus on football he still uses the sports as a form of stress release and as a supplement to his training. He has recently gotten into disc golf as well, which has proven to come to him quite naturally given his discus history, much to his competitor’s dismay. Allen tries to scope out disc golf courses whenever the Sabercats go on the road for a game, though he rarely has adequate time for recreation given the three games per week schedule. The Sabercats were not participants in the NSFL postseason last year, and Allen took this time to visit some of his competitors’ cities to get a better feel for the atmosphere without the gamete perspective that he usually had. Allen was in attendance for last year’s Ultimus championship between the Second Line and the Wraiths and spent some time in New Orleans’ City Park playing disc golf with fans, teammates, and other fellow NSFL players who were also visiting to watch the championship. Although there were no official recordings of this, rumor has it that six figure bets were being made during the game after two too many Sazeracs.

When it comes to hobbies outside of football for Osiris Firestorm-Fjord, one thing stands out for him among the rest: marble racing. Yes, the obscure and often overlooked sporting event that is slowly taking the world by storm during this pandemic has been a passion for Osiris most of his life. In football, teams have strengths and weaknesses; the league is certainly not completely balanced heading into a season. But in marble racing every marble starts with the same completely balanced chance of winning the race. Thus there is a beauty in the chaos that enfolds with every race as those spectacular colored spheres meander through every twist and turn. Certainly Osiris had dreams of becoming a professional marble racer before football became the center of his life. "Stop playing with your little balls and go make something of yourself," his father always told him. But if football ever fell by the wayside, Osiris would be hitting the marble racing circuit hard. I'm talking investing in custom kitted marbles, a full blown YouTube channel and international travel for the world marble Grand Prix. Alas, for now Osiris merely has time for making custom courses at home with his brothers, watching races on the internet and very occasionally participating in a regional amateur race.
