Hello ladies and gentlemen to Green Bay's favorite sport talk column!
My name is Richard Littlewood and I am your host!
This is 10 outta 10!
For today's episode I'm going to tell you 10 reasons... Yes you've heard it right 10 reasons why I am going to fall in the ISFL draft! But let's cut all this chatter once and for all and get this done!
1)First and foremost I am a first Gen.
It is widely known that the first round is reserved to super earners and recreates. People known for their activity and experience. Being a first Gen people still thinks that I have something yet to prove (I wonder if they've ever read this or maybe even say my earnings/Acollades) and that gets me discredited and passed on. That's right people want to see me write in the regular season and that simply it's not going to happen.
2) I am wayy too blunt.
Disrespectful, hot headed, blunt in other words I'll speak from my gut and I don't care if anyone gets offended for it. I'd rather say everything how I feel it than being fake to myself and that tends to get people mad or concerned about me as a person. Well I am this way and honestly I don't care who do I get in front, am I a jackass? Probably but oh well this is who I am for good and bad.
3)I am an Offensive Lineman.
It is widely known that in this league there are teams that prefer to get a bot to play the same position I am, and it gives them the freedom to distribute and pick exactly what they want to have in the line of scrimmage. That's a great advantage over real life people and I understand that. But still I feel like the Offensive line should be either favored a bit to make full live lines a thing or scrapped and removed completely, this middle ground helps no one.
4) I am not willing to swap my position to the Defense.
Call it arrogance, being a knucklehead, uncoperative or simply pass completely for it, I don't want to be a defenseman I choose my position exactly for that and I doubt that this or any of my players will ever be one. I appreciate everyone that choose to be one, I am one myself on other Sim league, but I don't want to repeat myself or fill on that side of the ball as I don't enjoy it.
5) I am not a great chatter on the lockeroom either
Yeah I might chat every now or then, yeah I'll take care of the numbers and maybe even DM someone to keep discussing if I find a topic interesting, but honestly? I won't be the one starting a conversation if its not about strategy or some sort of analytics, if you want to be all friends enjoy your time, I love to see you having fun, but I'm not a people's person, I like my circles small and I tend to be bad with big messy chats.
6)I want a hefty contract
I know exactly what I want.
A 3Years 12 mil contract with a Mutual Option on the third year distributed as 4/4/4 it's the bare minimum I'm willing to take, yes I know you need to pay more to your stars players but that cash better come from somewhere else, I know I am a max earner and want my team to help me cover some of the expenses for each season. No the first two years won't be as team friendly as the last but I'm not doing the math for the team's payroll.
7)I want to go up now
Yeah, big contract and straight up, I have nothing else to do down in the Developmental league, I won the championship already and I hit my cap so those things are out of the way, I do have Banked tpe as well so honestly, getting back here again will make me lose my time I know that you do what's best for you and so do I, that's why I am looking for new challenges.
8)I am inflexible
More of the same, I know what I want and I am willing to fight for it, I know that I this push people away and might even make me go and put a holdout in my career. But honestly, if I start giving up on what I want this early on my career. What can I expect from the future? I'll get marked as accessible and General managers will lowball me for the rest of my career, sorry but I've learned this the hard way. No other way to say it.
9)I am only loyal to myself
People got me way too many times, I gave them my time and loyalty and they gave the middle finger in return, so my loyalties are out of stock, I'll do what I feel it's best for me and stand my ground to take care of myself,I'd rather avoid confrontation and simply Disconnect if a discussion is getting heated but I want everything getting written down to avoid getting taken advantage in any possible way. A good and well written contract is better than any promise someone can make.
10)This article
It's widely known that the tallest nail gets hammered first. But I can't stay put and not have THIS as my "I told you so" weapon, listing all my bad stuff there not only works wonders for frustration management but let's everyone see my worst side, in case anyone decides to pick me anyways you will forever have this piece of media mentioning everything you might encounter while you are chatting with me.
Well ladies and gentlemen, this is it. This was 10 outta 10 Episode 6 "let's tank our draft stock" hope you liked it, and if not,... Well just come and talk to me, I'm more than happy to help you get a better insight into my head.
