*Liberty Wants YOU - Silver Fox - 09-06-2017
I figured I’d make a media post rather than send out a template message to all the rookies, which strikes me as somewhat impersonal (now that I think about it, this post is probably impersonal too, but I’m old, I don’t have time damnit). Rookies, are you really giving credit to GMs who contact you with a message that looks like “Hello <NameOfRookie>, we are interested in <RookiePosition> and you’re one of those, so what would you think about playing for <TeamName>?” C’mon now.
Why you should want to join Liberty:
We’re active. After recent trades, we now have 5 of the 12 DSFL GMs on our team. We focused on getting quality active players during the S2 draft, and it certainly paid off for us. Heck, we just filled out a 14-team NFL Fantasy Football league entirely with active Liberty players. Our goal was to build a community, not just a team, and it seems like we’ve done a decent job of it so far.
Our discord. It’s hopping all day, with both NSFL-related and general chatter. Sure beats a crappy message board post in terms of team-building. We’re all pretty tight because of it.
Our story. We’re not one of the original teams; we were created as one of two expansion teams at the end of S1. We’ve only got half as much time on the field as the other teams, and yet we’ve managed pretty well, creating a team from scratch from the S2 draft and doing better than pretty much everyone expected. This coming season, we’ll do it again. We’re also one of two teams with a championship-winning GM! Adam made me say that.
Our defense. Once we got about halfway through the 2nd season, we really started to step it up. We’ve since traded for star DT Ramrio and signed LB Hackett from free agency, and we’re looking at the 2nd best defense in the league thanks to that. We’re coming for you, Outlaws.
Our future. We’re aiming to be the team that challenges the Outlaws for the Ultimus, and it’s looking pretty good so far. Don’t sleep on the Liberty, because we’ll be in your nightmares soon.
Our barbershop quartet group, the Liberty Four, and the Liberty fight song they created:
Fight Liberty Fight.
On the Road to Victory!
Score Liberty Score!
Score a touchdown 1-2-3!
Hit em’ low,
Hit em’ high,
For Liberty will never die!
Fight Liberty Fight!
On the road to victory!
L-I-B-E-R-T-Y Liberty!
Why you wouldn’t want to join Liberty:
You hate fun and the people who have it. You also hate puppies – if you see one you’re like “Eww, gross, a puppy.”
You want to join the Outlaws so you can win every time, rather than just most of the time (Yes Kevin, we’re going to have a positive record in S3).
You have zero interest in discord. Not a bad thing, but that’s where all our action is, and you’d probably be pretty bored if you weren’t there.
You want to join the SaberCats. I can’t blame you, Sweetwater’s podcast is great. Maybe we’ll make a podcast.
You’re filled with hate and darkness and thus want to join the Legion. They have soylent green every night I’m told, and their dark rituals are probably responsible for global warming. Just what I heard.
So there you have it. If you don’t want to join us for whatever reason, let me or adam2552 know, and we’ll be happy to make alternative selections. But as far as we know, everyone’s on the table right now, and we can’t wait to see how the draft plays out this time. Going to plug some holes, maybe grab some depth, and by the end of season 3 people will be wondering where the hell we came from.
Now I'm going to tag some of our team so they can chime in as well, if they so desire. :cheers:

At the risk of sounding like a cult follower, the Liberty locker room is pretty close to the ideal environment. All the people there are nice, the GMs are responsive, and asking a question will give you a quick answer. Everyone is crazy active, nice, and engaged in the league.
Not to mention the team: we're the fastest rising team in this league. We have stars all over our roster, and the revamped defense is a sight to behold.
Join the Liberty, rookies. It's a choice you won't regret.

It'll be fresher in the brains of the draftees, they'll be more inclined to think about it and feel good about coming to the Liberty

I think they might remember having an actual personal message sent more than a post they won't read...but it doesn't matter because the teams pick them! :rofl:

Yeah I know, personally I've thought all these done by every team have been dumb, these should be to free agents, not rookies. Doesn't make sense to me personally
