19. The plot for the show that Zoltan of the Developmental simulation football league would be all about competitive eating. Zoltan is known around the league for the significant amount of panckes he earns. Both on and off the field. The show would be around 16 episodes a season and follow Zoltan around his travels on road and home games. Each episode would take place in a different restaurant as Zoltan just stuffs his face with different eating contests in the area. Its like Diners Drive ins and Dives, but its pretty much just Zoltan hanging out with the restaurant staff, peddling for donations to the cult of Zoltan, and eating lots of food. Zoltan is a generous tipper so the restaurants never really mind. This all started when A. Kicker and Zoltan went out for Taco's down in Tijuana. A. Kicker was absolutely amazed that Zoltan just sat there for a full 30 minutes non step eating Tacos. The restaurant was an all you can eat venue and they had to quickly get the kitchen back to making taco's for the other customers. That shredded cheese is just so good. AT the end of the meal, they took a nice polaroid picture of Zoltan and put it up on the wall. This is the end of the first episode.

For Bondi Beach Buccaneers Season this year there were certain players and users have gone above and beyond, in shaping the legacy of the franchise this season for better or for worse. I am going give you a run down of this Mount Rushmore type legacy that was brought open the Bondi Beach Buccaneers this season. The four most noteworthy figures of the team this season will got too be on and off star running back Ken Oath, Talented but toxic and unpredictable Tony Demonson, running back turned Quarterback 1st season experiment Tron Carter , and young rookie Tight end lenard Graf Why do each one of these figures deserve that recognition, and how did each of them make this list. Well let me give you a run down of the drama and commotion that happened over in Bondi Beach this season. Into the end of last season is was getting a bit noticable too everyone that Ken Oath was a bit of a stretch too go #1 overall in the dfsl draft, Tony had a real good season in his rookie season but all the buzz was still on Ken Oath and the stretch of pick he was that season, Tony took it badly when the team decided to move Tron Carter over too Quaterback with plans of giving Ken Oath who just put up a lackluster year majority of the work load into the next season . Tony demanded a trade before season even started and created a bad scene over in Bondi Beach during the training camp. He was stuck in Contract with Bondi refusing too trade him or no one wanting too take chance on Tony Demonson he started taking matters in his own hands trying too start stuff with Memeber of his own Team and notably rival Ken Oath, Ken Oath was scared and got veteran of Orange County Otters Goat tank too come have a word with Tony this did not go well Goat tank and Ken Oath and some other members of Goat tanks onteroage, Tony was pissed and went on a drinking bender only making things worse for himselves and others he was upset the team wouldn't let him in dressing room and deciede too give Ken Oath some pay back and attacked him for once and for all living him beat up good, this was the last straw for GM of Bondi not allowing Demonson around rest of team only time he would see them being at game times Demonson put in effort during his games but something big was noticable missing. Ken Oath did well and was best player on team though couldnt do enough to make them competitive. Tight end Graf had a really good rookie season despite all the other drama on the offensive. Tron Carter really struggled at the Quaterback experiment Bondi Beach had running this season. People were more focused this season with all the drama Demonson brought too the team and locker room rather than the accautly games. We know Ntg has strong hate for Demonson the ways they talk about each other in media and in interviews there is no love there but NTG knows Demonson is a fan's player and kept him there too sell tickets and fill the empty seats of the stadium this made him money and is one of the things NTG loved was having a full pocket. In Demonsons eyes NTG trashed the team too create drama too sell tickets he had no thoughts about trying too make the playoffs. While Oath was the best player of Bondi Beach Buccaneers posting up good points for yards and touch downs this season every game had fans of Demonsons come too games with signs shirts and yelling making a scene taunting or causing a ruckus too mainly Oath but also other players or members of the team who Demonson was having a problem with a would call out on social media notable offensives that happened during this period were half the stadium in bad home Loss was going with Demonson chanting Ken Oath sucks Ken Oath got beer dumped on him during this game aswell after game Demonson posted Oath getting hit with beer on his Instagram with the Caption best throw of the game. Hash tagging Ken oath sucks. We had Demonson just plain out right disrespecting junior members of the team constantly knocking at awardsystemsucks. Being caught on camera spitting in teammates face during one of last practices Demonson attended. Demonson left a horrible taste in the mouths of classic Australian football fans mouths with the acts and displays he put on this season but got a new under crowd involved with the league turning it into a sports entertainment type atmosphere . Demonson has starred in many commercials and has a TV personality getting a sort of bad boy persona going in the TV world.

15. Your ultimus chanpions… Honolulu Hahalua! This team has been the Cinderella story of the ages. Starting the season 2-4 and being able to claw their way back to make the playoffs was a feat in itself. With this only being the second playoff appearance in franchise history the team had overachieved already to this point. BUT THEY WERENT DONE! Going on to upset their next three opponents and taking home the Ultimus.
Now MVP was a tough one as it was a full team effort. But our man Lalo Salamanca put on a show out there vs the Yetis. Salmanca ended up with 8 receptions and 130 yards for 2 touchdowns. So this man earned this MVP and the “Clutch Cowboy” nickname that came with it!
So Lalo was got to enjoy all the little extra perks that come with the Ultimus MVP winner. The biggest of these perks is Lalo’s new 26’ pontoon that we will get to cruise the Honolulu oceans with. But the one that was most enjoyable for the team was his front spot on each of the roller coasters we hit at Disney. For anyone else this would be an award but little did we all know how much Lalo hated heights and roller coasters. Salamanca much rather face a Yetis one on one vs a roller coaster loop!
17.Honolulu, the island for opportunities! With the groundbreaking of our future stadium scheduled for next season. I’d like to make a few suggestions on how I believe it can become the best stadium in the ISFL and other professional stadiums throughout the country. The biggest pitch for the stadium is that the complex would become its own island. Basically this island would consist of the stadium and beaches surrounding the stadium. I can picture it now. Tailgates on the beach? How can you beat that? Fans will get the pleasure of shuttling down from the main islands and get a quick tour of the ocean before each game. Once they arrive to the dock they will be laid and directed to their own private piece of paradise. I’ll say the best part about this new stadium is it’s very open concept. This allows the fans to get the breeze of the beaches and have the lovely view of the ocean. Another great feature is the locker rooms being right now the beach and the requested tradition of the post game swim when the team wins. All the glory of the beach and Honolulu pack into one must visit island! Can’t wait to finally take that game winning swim!
19. David Frank: Britain’s newest futbol star. After years of playing in the international simulation football league, David has decided to take his talents across the pond to play for AFC Richmond. David Frank was recruited by AFC Richmond’s very own Ted Lasso. Ted saw a lot of himself in David and hoped that his uniqueness would help bring together a group of misfits looking to avoid relegation. Ted hopes that David will relate well with the rest of the group include star Jamie Tart. Things get heated when David and Jamie go head to head on Baby Shark vs Jamie tart song and which came first. But after the return of Roy Kent, both Jamie and David are put in their place. With David wanting nothing more than to have Roy proud of him he does everything he can on and off the pitch to get his approval. Little does David know, Roy approves of nothing. This need of approval is something David and Jamie start to bond over which brings together the team together as a whole and create a team chemistry that has never been seen on the pitch before. Is Ted Lasso a genius or is he just the luckiest wanker to make it to the big leagues?
David Frank is a man of many talents and was excited to help his team in whatever way he could. Looking back at the opportunities David had, he was one that could have been successful in many different positions on the field. If the QB crushing Defensive end position wasn’t a need for his team David Frank would have taking his talents to the offense. David Frank is a massive 280 LBs standing at 6’6”. Please find me an LB that would be able to cover this hoss of a tight end. So not only the pure size advantage of David would make him a top tier, but his blazing spend and hands. They hands are something of beauty. These hands have had many hours training. These quick hands will allow for any ball to be snatched up by David!
But I’ll have to say the number one reason David Frank would thrive as a TE is all the end zone targets. So he gets touchdowns. Who cares…. Well all the fans do because David is know around the league for his dance moves. What better stage to show these off than the ISFL while its being stream to tens of people. This man’s dance moves is what will keep him in the media and his natural abilities are what will keep in the record books.
RE: (S31) Ultimus Week - SomeSay... - 10-25-2021
Alright, So I get to choose a team and discuss the mount Rushmore of the franchise. Berlin is one of the freshest teams in the league and as someone who finally left the franchise for retirement but has been there since the very beginning I wanted to create my own Mt. Rushmore for the franchise. Most of this is not going to be statistical, I will include some, but really, the franchise having the sustained success it has, has come from a few team members who have shown their input and helped drive us forward from the expansion draft.
First in my Mt Rushmore is going to be High and DeWalt, they took a swing on bidding for a expansion team and it couldn’t of not worked out better. They have consistently driven the franchise forward. They crushed the expansion draft by snagging a few great users in Simo and Swanty. They organized the locker room to be able to have a public place to get the excitement going and let everyone be able to connect with former teammates. Lots of this stuff is typically done, but the way the had it firing on all cylinders from the beginning was incredible. They put together a high-quality war room and we were pumping out the feedback and they continued to listen and adjust. It takes a good leader to be able to not only listen to criticism and advice but to take that and implement it. Highs QB was a fantastic addition to have, his switch from WR to lead the team was a great move to start us off right even if he did throw a ton of interceptions :kekw: DeWalt’s switch to CB or S whatever it was did not last long as he retired and recreated to help strengthen our Defensive line. High stepped down this year and Laser has since taken over, but High and DeWalt will go down as one of the best GM combos I have had the pleasure of playing for.
Second user to go on the mount Rushmore of Berlin for me is user Swanty. As I mentioned previously Swanty was a fantastic snag by our GMs. He holds great positions inside the league, so you know he understands it and used his knowledge to help us in anyway. No, nothing illegal. Before the sim switch he helped test, and during the switch as he was part of the sim transfer team he helped explain things to us there were invaluable. He consistently had the highest valued input from most of us in a quote Front Office role for Berlin. His player, a CB was highly successful when playing next to my CB, and had some really great seasons for us, and when I switched to OL, he was able to hold it down on WR1s and help Jenkins take on some great numbers as CB2. Swanty on and off the field deserves a spot on the Mt. Rushmore, there’s not debate. If you were able to see the input and effort he put in for us to kick this franchise off it is undeniable his spot on this list.
The third user that is going to go on this Mount Rushmore is going to be .Simo. A user similar in his contribution as Swanty. Was a Kicker when we drafted him in the expansion class. But man, what a user he turned out to be. Like Swanty he holds valuable positions inside the league and was a max earner from the start. We knew we were getting an excellent player, but the contributions to the Front Office were incredible, his building of the records and player tabs on out discord was a great start so we were able to keep track of the franchise from the beginning. His Kicker was valuable until we needed him to step into a WR role and he hit off as WR before eventually making his way to retirement. He was a excellent scout and judge of user character and like I have said already contributed on so many levels to the organization from the start. If he did not recreate as a QB I believe he would have been right back in Berlin we valued him that much.
Finally, the last users to round out this Mount Rushmore, is unfortunately myself. I wanted to wait till the end because in my opinion those users deserve all the recognition, as much as they will, say I deserve it too, I wanted the light to shine brightly on them as the Ultimus Week grader reads this. I left SJS after making a pick six to secure the ultimus, I left a championship team and a great team at that to help build a franchise. I’ve always wanted to GM but only in the right conditions and although I wasn’t a GM, High and DeWalt made it feel that way with us in our Front Office. So, for me it was an easy decision to come help give my opinions, scout users, and assist in every way I could. Even taking my half way decent CB and making him a pancake eating fatty on the OL. I love everything about this franchise had to offer for me and my player. I hope they have nothing but success going forward, and if my recreate ends up back in Berlin, I would not be disappointed.

Tier 2 Task 7:
To be honest, my experience in the league has been even better than I thought. Coming in with this being my first sim league I expected to just spend an hour or two each week on here doing whatever is needed to update my player and then looking at stats after games. I didn't realize how healthy the community was behind the screen and how invested I would be in making my player as good as I could. All that in addition to how cool the fantasy aspect of the league is and how much time I can spend looking at stats for that and writing about players and teams, what isn't there to love.
In terms of specific people I have to shoutout the London management for drafting me as the new kid on the block who looked like he wasn't going to earn very much. Also shoutout to @Trempale for being my twin in the ISFL. We are both S32 new creates, Tight Ends and big TPE earners. Although he jumped in head first much more quickly than I did, ending up as the 3OA in the DSFL draft and is already a DSFL GM, we will always share these same beginnings even if we end up position swapping or playing in different leagues or whatever the case may be. Also shoutout to the rest of the London S32 draftees and the rest of the S31 Royals, whether or not we play together again S31 was a hell of a ride, thanks boys.
Regarding my player's start, I can't say I'm ecstatic with my personal statistical performance. 350 yards and only 1 TD was definitely below my expectations for the season, but I think a couple of factors play into that. I don't think I put enough emphasis on speed early on in my updates, only really focusing on it in the past couple of weeks and I was kind of buried on the target depth chart on my team as London had 2 1000 yard receivers and another decent receiver on top of that. Combine that with a middle of the pack team performance in terms of receiving yards and touchdowns, that didn't leave a whole lot for me.
Being drafted for the first time was great. Watching the draft live and then hearing my name called on the stream and then getting a ton of pings from the London discord was pretty fun, I can't wait to get drafted again in about a week's time.
Tier 3 Task 16:
The team that gets Deshawn Penne is going to get an offensive skill position max earner. I'm willing to swap if needed to WR, RB, or QB from TE if my team has the need for it so I'm a bit flexible in that regard as long as I'm getting the ball and moving it downfield for my team. My biggest motivation in the league is making my player better as much as I can, as fast as I can so my ISFL team is going to be getting a reliable offensive weapon. Outside of the sim I think I'm pretty fun in the LR and like to joke around and have a good time. Another big perk of having me on your team and in your LR has got to be the delicious penne GIFs that I will post all the time. Also if you have a channel in your discord like #london-broil then you will get a couple of delicious looking food pictures whenever I'm feeling fancy and actually cook something nice.
There are a couple of teams that should choose me in this draft because they have an immediate hole on their roster and I can fill it day 1. If your team just had a Tight End retire and you don't have any Tight Ends in the pipeline, I'm your guy!
Tier 3 Task 25:
Tight End seems like an ideal position for me in real life, I think if I had stuck with football I probably would have ended up being a Tight End. In addition to that, for the ISFL I wanted a position that was racking up those attractive offensive stats because as a NFL Fantasy Football fan, that is what draws me the most to football in general. I picked Tight End because as a sim league noobie I figured the other positions like QB, RB, and WR would be pretty competitive and full of veterans that knew what they were doing and would out perform me, I figured tight end would be a bit more low key. So if I had to pick a different position it would probably be a different offensive skill position, and I would probably have ended up on WR. Wide receivers are just more athletic tight ends that don't block as much, they are easily the closest to a receiving tight end so I think that would probably be a good fit given the natural overlap between the two positions. Great NFL tight ends end up playing a lot of snaps out wide anyways. So I would have to say if Deshawn Penne didn't create as a tight end, he would've been a wide receiver.

T3 P17) Big News for the Dallas Bird Dogs! After launching a comeback victory in the championship, the team had partied hard. A little too hard maybe, but it was well justified. The team now sat in the locker room a week later, waiting on coach Rev to announce the big news. “We’re getting a new stadium fellas, I want everyone to have a say in what goes into this place”. The players all got excited at once, first a win- and now our own stadium? Ideas began to spill out. An indoor dining facility suggested one of the O-Linemen. Maybe a ballet studio shouted out a wide receiver. John Riggins suggested an indoor track, which prompted many of the players to try and get him to “think outside the box”. John Riggins sat and thought for a while- and then a while longer. “Maybe an outdoor track?’ The team let out a collective sigh, and all judged him, even thought T’Chala seemed to like the idea. John Riggins likes to run. Rev wrote down all suggestions, throwing his own in secretly. The world may never know what he wrote down- until the new stadium is built of course. The team lumbered out of the old stadium, looking at her one last time. They had some good memories in that building.
WC: 219
T3 P19) John Riggins stepped into the set of the movie, and admired the lights of the expensive set. He was by no means an actor, but he needed to expand his influence in the ISFL- especially since the draft was coming up. In the league he was by no means the best running back, some of those guys had years of experience, and were bigger, faster and somehow stronger than him. But he knew he would get there, just needed a bit more time. He looked down at the ridiculous outfit the wardrobe specialist and let out a little chuckle- there was no way he thought he would be in this position coming out of college. The movie he was going to be apart of was a weird forest gump spin off, and Riggins was excited to be cast for a roll- he had some lucky connections out of the University of New Hampshire. His lines were in no way complex, but he had one talent that the production staff was thrilled with. He could run, and boy he could run well. He was jolted back to reality when he heard the words “Lights, Camera… Action!”. He tightened his shoe laces, it was show time.
WC: 204
T3 P25) John Riggins sat on the crowded train lost in thought. It had been a hard practice, coach had spared no punches. Not even after winning the championship game, and having the best performance of his career, with over 100 yards and 2 touchdowns. Riggins thought about the college days, where he would put on a clinic against kids who dreamed they would be in the position he was in, and wondered what would have happened if he chose another position on the field. A little known fact about Riggins was that he played middle line backer in little league, and was absolutely explosive on the field. So explosive and quick that coach decided to try him in the running back position. The rest is history. Sometimes Riggins missed covering WR’s and blitzing the quarterback. Trying to squeeze between the gaps of the Oline and seeing the look on the opposing QB’s face as he drilled him into the ground. But all the schemes and zones and techniques were too much. Riggins was glad he switched to running back, it was alot more simple. He liked to run the ball, and not worry about which WR was going to test his gangster. Life had turned out well.
WC: 206
T3 P28) John Riggins played with some amazing talent this year with the Bird Dogs. A QB who could sling the ball, making crazy throws. Wide Receivers Toast and Sama, who were arguably the best Duo in the DSFL all season. He played behind a talented O-line that held their own against an angry horde of D-men. He also played behind a DSFL veteran who taught him everything he knew about playing in the league, who had explosive speed and hands that would make a corner back tremble. In his mind all these players on his team deserved awards and recognition for talent they showcased at such a high level. Riggins particularly hoped that Sama would win rookie of the year, he was very very impressed by the amount of work Sama put on the field every single play and the amount of yards he was able to rack up. Plus he knew Sama was a great teammate in the locker room, picking the spirits of the team up during fluke losses and cheering the defence on during huge stops Sama and Riggins played together in the prospect bowl as well, and managed to bring back the championship trophy.. But he loved them all!

RE: (S31) Ultimus Week - KaleSalad - 10-25-2021
Teir1 Prompt 6:
The ISFL and DSFL have been around for a long time before I ever arrived here. I was a lurker of the league for some time before finally creating here. Though I have only just started I was signed as a DFA in the DFSL and was very quickly taken aback at a few things on the site. Coming over from SHL the site felt very much the same but in the same instance very very different. The site as a whole is laid out the same but also has different workings to go around with it. This was one of the first things I noticed when creating. The site in itself though feels a lot like the same where people have come to share a common excitement for the game of football in a simulated league. Like other simulation sites people seem to have a share a common interest in the sport. As someone that has always enjoyed football but never really gotten into die hard following of a team I thought maybe it was time to jump on a bandwagon and also check out what the site was really like. I got my first taste of the simulation version of the game very quickly after creating as a DFA and getting picked up by Tijuana. The sim itself seemed really cool! Yes its nothing super special with a bunch of dots moving around on a board. But the actual recap of the plays and notifications of what had happened actually make it quite a bit of fun to watch! With seeing how this all went down it instantly had me interested to know what all happens behind the scenes in order to put into a strategy or game plan for your weekly matchups. It hard to believe that there are so few actual games a year but it makes total sense. Coming from a hockey background and being used to the 66 game SHL season cutting it down to 16 games simmed on alternate nights feels weird but makes it all the more exciting as every game has that much more meaning behind it. Getting picked up by Tijuana who was at the time in the playoff hunt after a rough middle stretch to the season made my first games in the league feel that much more exciting! Though I didn’t contribute much, only 2 tackles, one being for a loss, it was fun to be along for the ride and the playoff hunt! Though the team did end up coming up short with us relying on some luck needing another team to lose in order for us to slip into the playoffs it was still a hell of a ride. With all the excitement it was easy to forget that there would be no playoffs. But on the plus side unlike other sports football is a one game winner take all! This make for a quick offseason and we can get right back to the drawing board for the next season to come. First though we need to make it through the drafts! Though I might be switching up he topic here a bit I wanted to move onto the LR and site atmosphere. Football is a special sport that is almost all completed in 3 days of the week every week for 16 regular season games. I cannot think of another sport where everyone can just sit down in one afternoon and discuss all of games happening all at once. It makes for a very interesting dynamic in the locker rooms. People clearly divided on being fans of all sorts of different teams. But somehow they can all come together in a common place and have fun! Sure there is lots of shade being throw at each other but it is always in good fun and harmless. It has really made me realize how sports can really bring people from all over the world together. It is a fun thing to experience! Now being that I am a first gen player I am really looking forward to seeing how the offline draft goes! It is a very interesting concept to me that the draft is already completed before the public really even knows. How on earth do these gm’s keep their picks a secret for that long? How are sure there are no leaks happening? This whole Idea that are tons of people in each War room that have all the answers yet there are somehow no leaks is crazy to me! Though with the offline draft happening I imagine it makes for a long more time to create some deals or make some more moves? I am very interested to see how the draft all plays out and I am sure after my first draft experience I will get to see/know more about the whole process. I know I bounced a couple different ideas out here but as a newcomer to the site I don’t have a lot to draw on and felt this is the best way I could go about explaining my experiences around the site so far. Overall the first impressions have been very good! I obviously have some new things I need to learn in order to be handling the site better but overall I am very excited to be here and look forward to the many season ahead of me to come.
