(S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - Silver Fox - 08-13-2017 You’ve heard about the cheesesteaks, so I’ll offer up another one of the Liberty traditions – the GM dinner. Every week, Silver Fox selects a couple of the standout players from the game that week and has them over for dinner as his guests, grilling up a nice home cooked meal or depending on how many guys make the list, bringing in some professional chefs to take care of everybody. The first win against the Yeti, the whole team was there for some killer ribs, steaks, and an impressive array of sides (3 different kinds of potato salad!) and that established to everyone that it’s worth your best effort to try and make the list for the week. Repeat visitors include Fox North, Damien Kroetch, Micah Hendrix, Ottokar von Gerhardt, Omar Wright, Stephen Harris, Perry Tucker, Vikian Marmeladov, and of course Lincoln Jefferson, all along with their spouses or girlfriends. More recently, Tyler Oles, Kristopher O’Sullivan, Paul DiMirio, Luke Washington, Drew Davidson, and even Adam Bennett have made an appearance or two. Silver Fox has a decent sized property, so there’s plenty of room for some ultimate frisbee, cornhole, or horseshoes, during the downtime when you’re not eating. Then there’s the massive theater – prior to everyone leaving, everybody gathers to watch a highlight reel of that week’s game with the focus on the great plays that earned them the invite for the week, narrated by Silver Fox. Everyone leaves full, and more importantly, full of hope and confidence to do well the next week. It’s a great way for the team to bond, and a tradition Silver Fox intends to keep. (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - 7hawk77 - 08-13-2017 The San Jose Sabercats do a great many things together. At the start of season 2, the management decided to try a new team building exercise by having many of the players do an "escape room". Things started off very cramped, putting like 20 beefy football players in to a cramped escape room was kind of madness. It took a little bit of time for us to start finding clues and getting things going just because we couldn't really investigate in such a close quarter. Luckily for us, we unlocked a painting that we could walk through to open up a bigger room. Once that happened, we could spread out and we started going much faster. It was kind of interesting how the offensive players and the defensive players almost split up, just because they were used to working with those people. We ended up escaping before the time limit, however the worker told us that we skipped a bunch of steps and did something wrong. Our team said that we escaped and that was the goal, how are we supposed to know if we do it right or wrong? Anyways after that experience, team members we usually do an escape room about once or twice a month just to try and stay mentally sharp. (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - XxpurplepurpsxX - 08-13-2017 In Arizona, the bonds are strong and the friendships are forever. The reason for this being the camaraderie and attitude of the Outlaws. Whenever a rookie is introduced to the team almost immediately they get pranked in a fun and loving sort of way. Then, once they feel welcomed by the mostly family friendly pranks these rookies get thrown in front of the team on open mic night. Getting up on that stage with a bunch of people judging you can be quite daunting. Especially when Arbin Asipi starts booing out of nowhere just to get in your head. However, if you aren't totally embarrassed from the pranks and the surprise stand up you officially become part of the team and then the natural bonding happens. Once you get invited over to Davis's house parties then you know you're officially part of the team. You can find tons of different ways to bond with the team at the party. You can grab a homemade meal courtesy of AD, then go find Chess in the backyard smoking a doobie, play some video games with Asipi or Davis in the living room, practice your moves on the dance floor with Tuck, or pound some beers in the kitchen with Dental Dam. Whatever you fancy, you can find a way to bond with one of the Outlaws. Code: 224 words (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - White Cornerback - 08-13-2017 RECOVERED FROM ROYAL CANADIAN NEWS.COM You've heard all the stories about the Yellowknife team by now. Drinking, investigating and camping in abandoned mine shafts and playing video games. That all seems pretty fun doesn't it? All fun and games. The next part of the story not so much. Recently the Yellowknife Wraiths suffered two horrible losses to very weak teams, many would blame the game plan of playing the #1 pick out of position at WR, or not running the ball against a very week run defense. While everybody has their opinion, the Wraiths player sought out to solve it themselves, outside of managements wishes. You've all seen Blue Mountain State, wait you haven't? What the fuck are you doing with your life if you haven't seen it. Anyway Chris Orosz is a huge fan of it, constantly quoting Alex Moran at every chance he gets. Fast forward to Saturday night where Orosz has called the whole team together, that means everybody on the practice squad and main roster. Orosz felt that reason the Wraiths have lost their "mojo" as he calls it is because of the lack of discipline and distractions that surround a football stats life. The moment the speech finished, bowls starting appearing out of everywhere as if it was a grown up's candyshop. In true BMS form, Orosz stuck to the script and each player had to reach into a hat and consume whatever substance they held. First up was Bubba Nuck, Nuck reached into the hat and pulled out some weed. No biggie, Nuck stayed pretty chill for the rest of the night. Cushing reached into the hat but refused to tell anybody what he actually got. Everybody assumed it was Ecstasy because Cushing didn't piss off anybody that night and was pretty fucking buzzed. BORK BORK walked up, reached into the hat but to his suprise the hat was completly empty. "Chris , what's the fuckin deal?" Chris looked into the hat dumbfounded, before making eye contact with each player around the room. He snapped, WHERE THE FUCK IS BIGBOY17??. They checked all the bowls, the room was packed with drugs when we started. Seeing how the party was over and nobody could find BigBoy, we all went home. Fast forward a few hours and we all get a call from the coach. " I'm here with BigBoy17 in the cells in Yellowknife, he claims you guys set up some sort of drugs Olympics? We all feigned ignorance, no idea what you're talking about coach. After waking up the morning after we couldn't believe our eyes. " MAN ARRESTED FOLLOWING 12 HOUR STATE WIDE MANHUNT FOLLOWING A STRING OF BANK ROBBERIES" The subtitle read " ZOBOT BIGBOY17 22, who was born and raised in Yellowknife led police on a nation wide chase , being stopped shortly before entering Nova Scotia. Cops quickly searched Bigboy's car following his arrest, finding copious amounts of drugs. Further blood tests dumbfounded scientists who claimed the findings showed that BigBoy17's blood was the equivalent of a 20 year Heroin users. Bigboy17's sweat was officially classified as an A rank drug as of 13/08/17. (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - ItsJustBarry - 08-13-2017 For me, what brings the Orange County otters closer together is probably the great communication and camaraderie amongst the players. Whether it's between front office and the players or one player to another player or group of players, it's always felt like an open door policy. In addition to excellent communication, we boost locker room morale and bring people closer together with our Underground snail racing. Well the snail racing provides a nice Outlet for internal team competition, when the dust settles we are all in the same team and it helps us form a greater Bond. In addition to the snail racing, we've been known to sit around and share pics of our favorite cute females. While many may say these activities sound ridiculous and immature, it is activities just like these that helped us create a stronger Bond, relieve a little stress in life, and focus to play our best game every time we take the field.

In addition to the snail racing, we've been known to sit around and share pics of our favorite cute females. What I have learned from this, is that the majority of the team takes a liking to the British females, while I myself prefer those of an Asian persuasion. It's the friendly banter from these types of comparisons that forces to create a stronger Bond within our team. While many may say these activities sound ridiculous and immature, it is activities just like these that helped us create a stronger Bond, relieve a little stress in life, and focus to play our best game every time we take the field. 207 words (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - WinstonKodogo - 08-13-2017 The Philadelphia Liberty are a close knit team and in their spare time they tend to get up to all sorts of nonsense in their spare time together. The team are constantly daring and pranking one another. One task that continues to crop up is that a team member is to go into a sports shop which stocks team jerseys and walk round the store with a jersey with their own name on it until they got recognised by staff or a member of the public. The record for this task is 5 seconds as wide receiver Fox North got recognised as soon as he walked through the door. On the opposite side of the spectrum we have Shawn Brady the back up quarterback who spent over 10 minutes without anyone batting an eye at him. Despite this dismal performance he did not have the most embarrassing moment that actually goes to line backer Perry Tucker who after picking up his jersey walked over to a sales assistant and asked her "Is this guy any good?" to which she replied "He's okay." It wasn't until he looked so wounded by this comment that she clicked and started apologising profusely to him much to the hilarity of his teammates.

(S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - Sanctus - 08-13-2017 ![]() @DeathOnReddit (S2) - Weekend PT #5 - Team Bonding - 124715 - 08-13-2017 The Liberty are the closest knit team in the NSFL, and it's not close. How do I know, you might ask? It's not like I've been in all 8 of them. Because we're just that close. I have been shocked at how close the team's come. For example, every gameday, right after the game, the whole team will go out to play mini golf. This isn't anything special on the surface, but LB Perry Tucker had an amazing idea. The Liberty players, some of the strongest men in the city of Philadelphia, cannot use putters on the tiny courses. They must use drivers, the biggest and strongest golf clubs, to play putt-putt, the smallest golf course. As you'd imagine, this has been hilarious at times, such as when TE Paul DiMirio struck his golf ball hundreds of yards into the air on the very first hole. As the ball approached the ground, screams could be heard from across the park. He'd hit a hole-in-one on the last hole. Another instance came when DE Ottokar Von Gerhart slammed his golf ball off of the course and into a Philadelphia main road, where it shattered the windshield of an oncoming car... ...and hit a miniature bell with the phrase "RING THE BELL!" emblazoned on it. Seeing who it was, the driver leaped out of the car sporting a Von Gerhart jersey. He was estatic when the DE signed his jersey and broken windshield. He even bought the man a new windshield! There are other antics, too. You would never believe. Code: 258 |
