*Justice has been served - RavensFanFromOntario - 10-25-2017
"Number one baby, yeah! Hugh Jackman isn't the highest rated wolverine anymore! Ain't nobody fucking with me today!" A tumultuous amount of emotions felt by Wolverine Justice and his reaction to being traded up for to take first overall showed it. A controversial individual to put it lightly, Wolverine Justice went from the Nevada State Penal League, the prison football league where he dominated to put it lightly, to being the most highly regarded quarterback prospect since season one of the NSFL draft. Justice, a behemoth of a man at 6'8'' 260 pounds, many pundits began by questioning both his level of competition and if his size was the key factor in his dominance over the undoubtedly weak penal league competition.
A prized high school prospect, Wolverine Justice was a Penn State commit before his infamous murder trial that led to him being imprisoned for 7 years. Justice, upon hearing the news of Sandusky's heinous crimes, turned to his friends in the Anchorage slums and grouped up to head south to avenge what would soon be his brothers in football. Upon reaching there, the infamous three shots were fired in broad daylight that both ended Sandusky's life and what appeared to be Jackson's chance at a football career.
Fast forward 7 years, Mitchell Pritchett, a little known environmental Californian lawyer is in need of money so he uses this case as a way to boost his profile. He challenges for an early release (parole was available at 12 years, but Pritchett found an old statute in Nevada that allowed for exceptional athletes to be released if they are deemed to have pro potential). The case sparked a fire across the nation. Pro scouts were brought in to pick apart and analyze his game to decide if Justice deserved a chance to play. The turning testimony came from Las Vegas General Manager Tyler Varga. Varga, declared that he believed Justice had a chance to be the best quarterback prospect since Mike Boss, and would definitely be able to compete at the pro level IF, he found an organization that could harness his wild side.
Enter in two of the biggest names in sports history, Allen Iverson and Shaquille O'Neal. Each saw a side of himself in the prospect, Iverson saw the hard gang life, and O'Neal saw the excitable and humorous individual who would do what it takes to win. They saw he had what it took to be a champion and were ready to mentor him, together, to become the best quarterback he could be. With those two at his side, the judge ruled in Pritchett's favour and Justice declared for the DSFL draft, initially seeking a waiver to bypass the junior league all together which was, inevitably declined.
A controversial figure because of the limited film on him, many figured his choice to bypass the combine and show of his skill set would hamper his draft stock. Justice chose to stick to the allure of his frame and mystique to see what GMs would risk drafting a player with his immense potential. When in discussions with GMs and scouts, Wolverine was open and honest about his traits, work ethic, just about anything, leaving only any questions about family out of bounds. One team that won't be disclosed, wanted to discuss in depth the murder trial, and are rumoured to have been so off put at the casual way Justice described how Sandusky deserved being shot to death, that they traded down to acquire other assets rather than draft him.
When draft day arrived, Justice knew where he wanted to go. Ironically, it was a pair of Philadelphia Liberty associated GMs who had oft-criticized Tyler Varga's opinion, who trusted in his trial testimony in believing in the talent of this young man. They understood that he knew his flaws and his talents and with the assistance of his agents, would lead to the path to success. They believed so much they traded away a quarterback who many believed would be the league's best the next season in order to make room for him. They always gave him the ultimate praise by trading up to first overall to select him and honour his journey to this point. That team was the Norfolk Seawolves.
This answers one question, but opens the door to so many others. Will he succeed? Has he grown out of his criminal past? Is he too tall? Is he the NSFL's version of Ryan Leaf? All these questions are sure to be answered in the future, but one final remark I'd like to end on is the moment when Wolverine Justice took a page out of Shaquille O'Neal's book asking the crowd around to join him while he sings "Andre Bly Jr, tell me how my ass tastes?" an ode to O'Neal's rap album.

entertaining read.
Sounds like you were lucky to retain Mitchell Pritchett. I wasn't even aware he was still practicing law. I am also curious what loophole you used to get a California attorney to represent you in Nevada without either state having any formal lawyer reciprocity agreement.

It's called the improv loophole
