While Tyron Brackenridge may be one of the best players in the league, it is not the only thing he does with his spare time. Tyron has been involved with numerous Canadian past times throughout his life and has continued them into his time within the NSFL. Some of these inludes other athletic events such as lacrosse and hockey that have led into his performace on the field within things such as agility and body control as he patrols the field and pass coverage. Other things includes the amount of time Tyron Brackenridge spends exploring and lving outdoors in order to get in touch with nature and to better understand the areas in which he lives within. One of the distinct culture shocks between his new home in San Jose and Canada is the cllimate of the areas, which is significantly warmer in San Jose and forces Tyron to seek out many different forms of remaining cool and similar to his home enviroment. Throughout his time in the NSFL, Tyron Brackenridge has begun gaming in his off days in order to retain contact and communication between teammates such as weekly beatings of Brayden Ennis on Madden or through squad games such as COD. Lastly, among all of these things it is also crucial to detach from the league and truly relax in the off time to rejuvinate and reignite the desire for the league.

My time outside of football besides a good night's sleep is dedicated entirely to the upkeep of my island on Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It allows me to do many things that I am not able to do in public due to my fame as a Kicker on the Tijuana Luchadores. I grow flowers, apples, oranges, and coconuts, I can go outside and catch bugs, I can search for shells, I can fish for both lake and ocean fish, I can hunt for fossils, I can also chop down trees, break rocks to find clay, and gold and most importantly build houses and take care of upkeep on an imaginary island full of talking animal creatures.
And when my Nintendo switch sadly runs out of battery I go outside and record videos for my Kiwi Kicker YouTube channel which is one of the reasons I was able to find my way to the NSFL. I wish I could fly to New Zealand to see my family more often than just the off-season but the long flights just do not make it feasible for me. I certainly miss my family but thanks to all the video chat apps, I can talk to them all the time! Shame the time zones are messy!

Doug Howlett is a retired rugby player who has underwent youth regeneration surgery to pursue his career in American Football. He still has immense love for his previous sport and uses his past experiences to assist in his Gridiron career. He was a track and field stud growing up and has a 3second 40 time (Converted from a 10.68 100m)
In his spare time he enjoys a bit of surfing and doing a spot of gardening and utilising the bounciness of random car roofs. He also enjoys a pint at the pub with his fellow teammates. During time off he is constantly running. Everywhere. He doesn’t stop running. Not an orderly jog either, like a full pace, fuck you run. He has ran around the world about 3 times and not in a figurative sense. He has worn through 100 pairs of shoes and can switch them out in a mid-air jump switch. His favourite pair of shoes are Air Jordan 1’s. He says they give him grit and can run like an Enhydra in water.
Doug Howlett loves watching sports and gambling as well. His favourite sporting moment was watching Miracle at the Meadowlands. His favourite gambling moment was a hit on a 10 figure multi. He spends most his days just flipping bets and banking nets. His favourite football player is Mike Vick, his favourite basketball player is Allen Iverson. In his ideal world he would’ve like a mix of the two. Millen Iverick (Trademarked, don’t try steal that.).

When Douglas Quaid isn’t on the football field giving out concussions he ponders philosophical questions. The biggest being what is a true man, a real man? What are the aspects of a real man? To their core a real man should be a father to 2-4 children. Less than two kids you don’t fully feel what it’s like to be a father, more than four means they have to care for themselves too much. You can’t be a bad father and be a man. You must support them financially and emotionally. Our ancient ancestors lived off the land and were completely self reliant. A real man should be able to survive extensive time in the wilderness. They should be able to make a primitive fire using only items the environment provides you, no knife or flint striker. Hunting (spear, bow, or some other projective) and trapping land animals (by using snares) or catching aquatic wildlife with a net or rock dam. Growing up in the incredible Utah environment Quaid’s relatives made sure these wild life survival skills were passed down to him. Being a real man requires serious responsibility. These players who just make their millions to support their own selfish lifestyle aren’t real men in Quaid’s opinion. (208 words)

Despite being a football nut head there are other things that I enjoy doing. For one playing video games whenever I have the time is a huge thing I have been passionate about for such a long time. I have been playing console games since the Classic Nintendo was released and pretty much have bought every system to come out to date. My favorite games currently are madden, NBA 2k, and a bunch of dragon ball games just for fun. Of course I am open to playing many other types of games like MMO’s like final fantasy 14. Of course it is very difficult sometimes to find times to play because I am constantly striving to get belter at the game of football. I also like playing basketball recreationally as I do not believe my talents are good enough to play in the NBA. Of course I also spend time with my daughter whenever I have the chance since I know kids will only be kids for so long and try to cherish those small moments every day. I also enjoy cooking, as there is much variety and so much food to make. Along with the fact that there is something satisfying about making something from basically nothing is amazing and of course when your loved ones eat it and say it’s amazing is great too. Of course I do not like to do the cleaning after the cooking but usually the wife does that since I spend the time cooking. There is always something to do and it keeps me much busy but to be able to play the game I love and get paid for it is a dream come true.

Sports are a big part of William Alexander‘s life. He played soccer and baseball in college and can often be seen playing baseball with whoever is up for a game. That also includes the passive consumptions of sports, also known as watching sports on TV. Since NSFL players aren't as recognizable to most people as their NFL counterparts, Alexander likes to watch college games in the stands without the bother of being recognized by people and having to write dozens of autographs. Well, to be honest he doesn't enjoy that nobody knows his face but what can you do about it? He also likes to create himself in sports video games and max his attributes so he can dominate the league and feel good about himself.
Besides everything sports related he helps out in the local dog shelter, taking the dogs for long and strenuous walks. He took up that exercise on his therapist's advice to work on a recent trauma concerning dogs. Alexander sought help after waking up countless times a week, having nightmares of birddogs and always being on the losing side when encountering one. Together with his therapist they figured out it had to do something with identifying as a Grey Duck and some negative real life experiences that transformed into nightmares. The work in the dog shelter is helping though and Alexander hopes it won‘t be too many years before he can enjoy the presence of dogs again.

Agent Tesla: This is quite the interesting point task I must say and I want to say I love whoever came up with this as it gives me an easy opportunity to interview my client Magnus Rikiya.
Magnus Rikiya: Normally you would answer these without me, but given the questions involved it is probably best that I handle some of this myself.
Agent Tesla: So the first question is do you have any interesting hobbies or passions?
Magnus Rikiya: Just as you know before I got into football I was focused more on strength training. Still want to be the world's strongest, but since I have been part of such good teams I have become much more focused on football than I was in the past. Strength training is still easily my biggest focus outside of football though and I spend a lot of my time on it when not training specifically for football.
Agent Tesla: Well that is your passion and another athletic activity other than football. Any other noteworthy hobbies?
Magnus Rikiya: Not sure if I have any other interesting hobbies. I read a lot of comics and manga I guess as I have always been into that kind of super hero stuff. The strongest of the strong you know. Also since my spouse has a more involved career than I do I also usually handle the cooking for the household during the off-season at least.
Agent Tesla: That is interesting to me at least. Tell me your favorite series, favorite character, favorite food to eat, and favorite to cook then. Sound good?
Magnus Rikiya: Ooh that is a tough one. Hm, series would be Angel Densetsu, character would be Yomi from Zekky? Gakky?, food to eat has to be pizza, and food to cook has changed as I have been more focused on developing my taco talents after being drafted by the New Orleans Second Line.
Agent Tesla: So we know you do not sleep all day, and that you are interested in physical training. Do you have any other athletic activities beyond that?
Magnus Rikiya: Not unless stuff like miniature golf counts. That and disc golf are both things my spouse enjoys that I am happy to join them for to get out of the house.
Agent Tesla: Good choices. What are you like off the field?
Magnus Rikiya: I'm just another guy at the end of the day I would say. Try to keep as low a profile as someone my size can, and just do my best to do right by other people. Honestly I am not as gregarious as some might like me to be.
Agent Tesla: Given you have a quite recognizable appearance has anyone stopped you in public?
Magnus Rikiya: You know that I have been stopped a lot after my junior season in college. I will say I have no problem with a fan talking to me on the street and I will be honest if I have to hustle off somewhere. Paparazzi are another story and I will stand by just moving past the pile of them whenever they show up, but now that I think about it I don't think I have had a paparazzi encounter since I hired you.
Agent Tesla: You're welcome. So you heard it here folks if you want an autograph Magnus will be happy to do his best for you if you spot him in public.
Magnus Rikiya: Thanks I guess? Not going to ask what you did, but I trust you. Yeah any fan who wants to talk to me is welcome to say hi. Cannot promise to properly respond, but I love showing love back to the people who make my job possible.
Agent Tesla: Well said. With that I believe we have more than covered the requirements of this point task. Thanks to whoever came up with this one, and we hope anyone who reads this has a great day!

When Mike isn't occupied by football he often finds himself studying history which has been his passion since he was young. This passion was likely sparked during some of their trips to central Europe when he was about ten years old. Lately he has tried to learn more about Finnish history, focusing largely second world war and battles his great-grandfather took part in before moving to Minnesota from south-eastern Finland shortly after war was over. He isn't too much into reading and prefers documentaries or other video sources for his learning but lately he has found himself reading more as topics he is interested are not well documented and rarely can any video material about them be found.
When he was still back in Minnesota he used to play drums on his friends metal band but since he moved to Norfolk he hasn't yet found himself new people to play with. He still has drum set at his house that he uses to play every now and then but it isn't exactly same than playing with other people, specially as he used to do so with some of his best childhood friends.
Also he has always been big fan of Minnesota Chiefs so if it is a hockey season he can be found on near TV at sport bars or at nearby arena where they might be playing.

Wait, something besides football exists?
Well of course something else exists. I would be lying if I said all my player does is eat, sleep, play football. Does anyone actually do that? I would think life would get pretty boring if all you did was consume yourself with football 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Well anyways, Deshun Jones likes to do many things, in fact a lot of things. Some people are characterized by there hobbies such as someone who likes to crochet or someone who likes to work with wood, but Jones cannot quite be described like that as his interests are too wide. He enjoys the process of learning. He will take a month or two on a specific hobby or interest that he came across and pick it up not to master the hobby or interest but rather do the task long enough to take appreciation of the subject and gain proficiency at it. For example a few months ago, Jones picked up a book on knot tying at his local library (imagine coming across your favorite NSFL star at the library!) and sat down for a week learning all the different knots even though there is no reason why a football player needs to know knots. So I guess you can say that Jones hobby is the process of learning new hobbies and interests.
