This expectations for this season are really high. Higher than in the last ones. Honolulus aspirations and goals are clear. They finally want to get to the post season. The offseason moves looked promising. The offensive line was adressed since until last season there were solely bots on the roster. The addition of Richard Littlewood should help in saving some cap space and improving the protection of Luke Skywalker. The Hahalua also managed to get Korbin Brown as a nice addition to their WR corps. He will eventually take over the reigns from Jed Podolak who hit regression comin into season 26. The offense should be good to go.
On the defensive side however Honolulu had some problems in the last season. They have to step up their game a notch to help out their offense a bit.
One key player for the defense will be Heinrich Kackpoo. He is about to play his fourth ISFL season with Honolulu and is already entering his prime. The offseason work he put in really paid off. I am expecting him to put up good to great numbers and help the team in shutting down the run and chasing after opponents quarterbacks. I would be disappointed quite a bit if the #1 goal of reaching the playoffs couldn't be reached this season.

With his high school season over, Demetre Elliott suffered severe loss of motivation for his offseason training. Boy had no proper training programs anymore as the high school head coach didnt provide any after his graduation. Elliott fell into a slight depression as he was very lost without a proper direction, until the Dallas Birddogs came into the scene..
Recently drafted by the Dallas Birddogs they immediately took their chances to sign him up for a contract. It did not take long for Demetre to think about if he was going to sign with them or not, he wanted to develop himself further – and Dallas was the place to go. Right after his arrival in Dallas they immediately started him on a diet, since his weight skyrocketed by nearly 20lbs in his depression hiatus. Elliott lost that weight very quickly and from there on it was very intense physical training in order for him to be able to compete in the DSFL. His sprint speed has almost doubled from his training sessions and his gym workouts have been very intense which he has powered through just by his strong willpower. His hard work has paid off very heavily during his half of an offseason, especially on the strength department as his farmer’s carry went from 135lbs to 215lbs and his gym sled skyrocketed from 180lbs to 250lbs. This boy sure has some strength and quickness in his legs. Now on the defensive end of the field Demetre is truly a force to be reckoned with, who is definitely not going to let anyone get through and is willing to protect his goal by any means necessary.

The San Jose Sabercats lost two players, wide reciever Nate Swift and cornerback HeHateMe PickSix, to retirement over the offseason, and called up four rookies, cornerbacks Xmus Flaxon Jaxon-Woxon and Rich Triplet, wide receiver Zach Crossley, and tight end Jaja Ding Dong, to fill in the holes. Other than that, the cats didn't make any flashy moves in free agency, other than resigning their free agents, so they're gonna be running with the same, and still improving, young core that won them back to back championships. As for Lanier, he's always been a pretty fast guy, posting a 4.3 40 at the S22 Combine, but he's been working on his speed and quickness to take his game to a whole new level, look for Lanier to always be near the ball by the end of the play. The San Jose Sabercats ground and pound style of football should be making it's return in S26, with a healthy dose of Hood and DTF touchdown catches, they should be looked at as a playoff lock as a one or two seed in the ASFC, and potentially a contender to defend their title and threepeat, but in a world where chaos has reigned for two straight years, who knows what the future has in store.

I was traded from the Sarasota Sailfish to the New Orleans Second Line, but I'm still in the DSFL with the London Royals. So things have changed yet they've stayed the same. I've no hard feelings towards the Sailfish as I can't see myself getting in their secondary any time soon. The Second Line have some amazing secondaries who are starting to feel that regression crunch. Hopefully, I can take over when they leave and keep the crazy high standard they have set.
This means another season with my beloved Royals. Looking to get to another Ultimini and hopefully take back our crown. The team has lost some big players but the new batch seems more than able to fill their shoes. The locker room is great in London so I'm sure we'll be in for another brilliant season and hopefully I can bank ridiculous amounts of tpe.
I've started learning about the sim and I'm going to try and get some more media posted up now I have some extra free time. I've been working on a rating system for the players and plan to make a post about it soon. It's obviously not perfect but I think I've been able to create a way of having a somewhat objective look at a players season. If anything I hope to pour some more fuel on the end of season award debates.

So, alot of things happened in the offseason for my player. The most important thing is, he got called up to the big leagues, joining the ranks of the Sarasota Sailfish, lead by gms frolf and sakrosankt, as a safety. of course during the process of getting called up to the isfl, utterstruzen improved alot, its basically like he trained in the fucking time chamber from dragon ball z or some shit.
showing off his improved skills in the big league, utterstruzen already had his first league interception in his very first rookie game in the ISFL. He also recorded 7 tackles and 2 Pass deflections, once more displaying his much improved set of skills.
To say about my team, well theyve obviously imrpoved a shitton over the offseason, mainly in calling utterstruzen up.
To talk a little bit about how this season will play out, all i can say while i havent been on the team this season, this season will definitely go even better for the sailfish, not only will we be making playoffs once again, but this time well also win a fucking game in the playoffs. Im especially hopeful due to the double disappointment from bondi beach and the sailfish both losing their first game of the playoffs.

Coming into season off what was his worst season, Dawkins spent the majority of his offseason preparing for what will hopefully be a bounce back season of sorts. Having virtually been a non-factor in the passing defense relative to his first two seasons, Dawkins spent some time on drills to hopefully improve his agility. Combined with the extra time watching film, hopefully Season 26 will yield a better performance. Additionally, Dawkins has spent time working on his cardio in the hopes that the improved endurance will translate to a better on field performance during the season.
As far as Honolulu goes, they managed to snag the promising wideout Korbin Brown from free agency who will join an already potent offense with the likes of Skywalker, Ayers Podolak, KKM and Krashwagen. KKM was re-signed this past offseason along with defensive end Asher Montain who are key pieces for the Hahalua. The bulk of the team is returning with not much changing from last season. Guy Fields and Rusty Rucker set to make a splash after a season adjusting to the rigours of the ISFL in a defense that looks to improve from it's performance in Season 25. Of the rookies from the Season 26 Class, only one will be making their debut this season. Richard Littlewood is set to be the team's offensive lineman and someone who can anchor the offensive line for years to come. Kicking and punting for the Hahalua is Venus Powers, a reliable and consistent performer who can be the difference maker in tight games. The team looks to be set to contend for a spot in the playoffs, something that the team hasn't yet achieved. With returning players and players continuing to develop, Season 26 could very well be the season that team is able to reach the playoffs.

Unfortunately, not much has changed for ol’ Hony Tonk and the Philadelphia Liberty since last season. Our first game of the season was an absolute beat down by the mediocre Yellowknife Wraiths, as our extremely young core of players can do nothing but watch our dots get smashed while just putting in the work with training, media, and point tasks. One silver lining this year appears to be the change in GM, as new head honcho, Pat, aka Punter, seems to be a really good guy who knows we’re in for an extended rebuild. Hopefully he doesn’t get too jaded and eventually lose faith or patience.
Personally, there is only so much I can do as a defensive lineman. I continue to dump points into my player and hope I can start to become a factor in the middle of the line, but at only 499 TPE as of this week, I’m simply outmatched and outclassed by most of the players I’m running into. I don’t have much hope that my player will make a large statistical leap beyond my one sack and a decent number of tackles last year, so essentially my goal is to just keep my head down and grind – and assume the work will pay off in a season or two. In the meantime, fingers crossed that the Sim gives us a few wins!

This past offseason Brick Van Sanzo has gone from a titan of the DSFL to a rookie fighting for playing time on an actual ISFL team.
Over this past offseason Brick was able to hit the weight room and finally max out his potential for strength, At full strength Brick should be able to better smash into the lineman of the opposing team and hopefully seal edges and hit the Quarterback in the backfield. Brick also was able to massively increase his agility by trying new experimental training methods involving a wombat and 15 traffic cones. With his agility increasing by 20 he should be much better at shedding blocks.
Brick also studied up with some of the best and was able to really improve his intelligence on field. No longer a big angry smashy guy, Brick is now becoming dangerous in other ways so he can be more useful in the big league.
Finally Brick trained with some old legends to improve his tackling techniques so he can really be helpful in everyway he can for his new team. As Brick improves and fights for more playing time on his new team, he will do his best to improve in everyway that he can.
