(S21) - Ultimus Week

[Blasoon]

3. I believe Wesley Eriksen, Safety for the Norfolk Seawolves will be a huge X-Factor going into any playoff game. I believe this player has shown an incredible drive and determination heading into all of Norfolk’s regular season games. Whilst he may sometimes be in the background compared to Matt ‘Son of Havoc’ Cross, he still remains one of Norfolk’s key defensive components. Furthermore, I would argue that if any team heads into a playoff game underestimating Eriksen’s physical capabilities, mental fortitude or pure heart that he puts into every game, they will have already resigned themselves to defeat. It says something about the man that he is the Seawolves’ ninth highest TPE earner, and out of the season twenty-two Developmental Simulation Football League rookies drafted by Norfolk, he is the fourth highest TPE earner. Arguably one of Eriksen’s largest strengths is something that the other teams in the league would not have realised until they lined up against him. And that is his ability to command a team and become an inspiring figure for the Norfolk secondary to rally around. This man’s presence in the locker room has inspired many other players to keep updating and keep spirits high through some devastating losses. Therefore, it is my strong belief that Wesley Eriksen will be one of the biggest X-Factor’s heading into Norfolk’s playoff games. (224 Words)

6. Unfortunately, the Norfolk Seawolves were knocked out of the Developmental Simulation Football League’s Southern Conference final by the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers eighteen to nothing. Whilst this loss is considered a blowout and has been on my mind for the past couple of days, I cannot help but at least be a little inspired by it. With a score like that, it is clear that we can only improve from here. Next year, whilst Norfolk will most likely lose some of their highest earners and more experienced players like Flash Panda and Dorfus Jimbo Junior, I truly believe that next season will allow for many of this year’s season twenty-two rookies to come into their own. I can very easily see myself (Suleiman Ramza), Wesley Eriksen, Luke Skywalker, Tequila Sunrise and Spike Suzuki becoming stalwarts of the Norfolk front line. To win the Ultimini next year, we need to increase exponentially on offence, defence and special teams. But that is what makes Norfolk quite special. The locker room is so supportive and so geared up to help players thrive, that it is impossible not to be swept up in that momentum. Especially now, more than ever, Norfolk is the place to be if you want to develop. This year Norfolk saw the most winningest record in their history, next year, we win the Ultimini. (223 Words)

8. I do not believe any player on the Norfolk Seawolves would be able to talk about revenge without mentioning the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers. Not only did these buckets of scum knock us out of the play offs this year, they also blew us out, eighteen to nothing. In addition, they are arguably the Seawolves’ fiercest rivals. And what has to be the worst thing of all, they won the damn Ultimini! Right now, the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers have to be considered the best team in the Developmental Simulation Football League. And that really pisses me off! And it also really pisses me off that I have had to spend all those words praising them for their accomplishments. Honestly what aggravates me the most is that during our playoff game, they did not flat out steamroll us. Our defence was still great, their offence was just that little bit better, and it allowed them to go for four field goals against us. Their team was not clearly better than us, they were just able to capitalise on nine penalties that left us giving up seventy-one yards. I need to stop myself now, or else I am going to keep going with all the reasons why I want revenge on the Buccs. But needless to say, I cannot wait to absolutely destroy the Buccs the next time I, and the rest of the Seawolves see them on the field. (237 Words)

12. I am in no way pushing forward a unique or controversial opinion when I saw that Moonlight, otherwise known as Franklin Armstrong, is one of the best figures in the entirety of the National Simulation Football League; not only to aspiring quarterbacks, but to all players in the league. Whilst my interactions with him stem mainly from when I first joined the league, they are still heavily present in my mind, and are still values that I hold dearly to myself. The title of this point task is ‘Pay it Forward’ I have seen no one do this more than Franklin Armstrong. After he saw me create my character, he went out of his way to find my reddit account of the same name and message me there, welcoming me to the league. From there, we spent a couple of days conversing, with him imparting as much knowledge as a three time Ultimus winner could. Personally, I was just astounded that this huge figure in the league was willing to spend time helping me out. Since those conversations I have found that I have been instilled with inspiration. And I know that it has influenced the way that I carry myself in this league. I hope one day to be as great of a figure to the future as Franklin Armstrong was to me. (224 Words)

1) Playoff Predictions, Reviews:
What a fascinating playoffs we just had, with my favorite team of New Orleans Second Line winning it all. They had quite a way there, first 23 to 17 win over Austin Copperheads, where they relied heavily on Forrest Gump - RB (NO): 20 att, 125 yds, 1 TD. ASFC championship was the classic against the otters where they won in OT, this time it was moreso of team effort on offence and arguably the kicker Herbert Prohaska was the hero with winning 46 yarder in the overtime. Finally in the ultimus they pummelled the wraiths and especially Forrest Gump - RB (NO): 25 att, 102 yds, 0 TD, 3 rec, 119 yds, 1 TD was nigh unstoppable in the performance for almost total of 300 yards since he added 70 kick return yards and 6 more from punting. Overall this team was build in several past seasons and finally achieved what it deserved, sadly a bit after Fyodo career was done, but nonetheless I was cheering for them here. There were many other heroes, beside Gump of course, like Toriki & Stan Francisco. Defence spearheaded by Quentin Bode and Bjoern Ironside was big reason for their success too. I think they might be favorites to repeat next year as well, as long as they keep that core through expansion and free agency.

6) Next Year
It was just the first season of existence for Dallas Birdogs and while sadly they didn't defy the expectations and finished last in the SFC south they were in it almost until the very last week and 5-9 record is quite respectable, especially since they only hit the rough patch toward the end of the season. They were actually 5-5 looking like dark horse of this year dsfl. Still as new team this is more so build for the future and with ton of S22 players they should regain ton of talent for upcoming season. Among hopefully signs they didn't have trouble scoring points despite not getting that many yards and they were actually about average in yard prevention too. Led by QB M. Jack and RB Goodman they have solid foundations to maintain this balanced approach. Surely they will need some more capable receiving corpse and actually some players they drafted last year might be called up already next season to DSFL, so this will be one more thing to overcome to really shine next year. Still ton of talented players like Phillips, Mongo-Panda, Bayley Jr. should really show how good GMs are at drafting giving good prognosis for the future. I certainly hope this will fulfil and they win the precious Ultimini in Season 22.

19) Team Culture
Honestly it was a bit rough at the start, because I felt slighted being drafted only 23rd in the dsfl draft, but it makes some sense given I'm unlikely to stay in dsfl for more than a season and I'm not that big of a presence on discord & forums anymore. Then I joined that Birddogs locker room and oh my it's been crazy how active & helpful that place is, without a doubt it's the most active place for an expansion I've ever been part of, which actually with my limited time make it hard to follow it usually, and I only react for pings. It's a great start and hopefully unlike some other dsfl experiments the Dallas team will stay for much longer than those. There is ton of people with appropriate roles, like usual offence/defence specialization, war room assigned & even plenty of NSFL TOP DOGS, that can scout players in #nsfl-scouting room. You can ask a question basically any time of the day there and answer usually is really quick, that's great spirit & culture that hopefully will keep the place going. There is plenty of other channels, even one for weebs that can't resist the urge, they also single-handedly guided me through fantasy, since I really don't know current best (or mostly any) players playing in NSFL, most of my contemporaries from Fyodo days are long gone too.

20) Nostalgia
The Second Line winning it once again, the 3rd time brings me back to my first ever sim league title that happened in S9, with one of the greatest teams in league history, that such legends as Borkus Maximus, Charlie Law, Benson Bayley, Paulo DiMirio, Darren Smallowd, Ardie Savea, Vincent Sharpei, Brian Mills, Jullian O'Sullivan, Tuck and many more played and was touted as one of the most dominant teams in league history - though record was just 12-2 the PF-PA ratio was incredible 530 to 197 - opponents on average scored 14 points per game while surrendering 38. The locker atmosphere was also great, filled with many personalities and even the story arch of redemption of once doomed Las Vegas Legion was finally fulfilled. In many ways, not just winning it, but especially being part of that group is one of my happiest nsfl memories and thing that kept me active well after those glory days while staying loyal to that franchise. It wasn't just about winning, but about having fun, memeing, creating door door culture and sense of camaraderie. I hope everyone gets a chance to experience something similar in their sim league career! I certainly hope for that with my recreate and I certainly wouldn't be mad if I were drafted once again to the Cresenct City.

12) ManicMav36 is a shining example of the very best in this league. As a member of Head Office, he worked tirelessly to make sure that the league stayed afloat in times of exceptionally troubled waters. He stood up for the league's best interest in order to get it to where it is today. When the simmer quite unexpectedly departed, he stepped into that role to make sure there wouldn't be a delay or interruption in games that season. He's stuck around to make sure that the sim team is managed well in addition to his numerous responsibilities in the head office. Now that he has departed from his role as DSFL commissioner and member of head office, he has elected to stay with the sim team to continue to ensure its success for the time being and has joined our very very important appellate committee, another tremendous opportunity to serve the league and help it be the best it can be. He is absolutely someone I look up to in terms of league management. While he and I approach many things differently when it comes to how to run things, I admire his dedication, his unwavering belief in doing what is right even when that is hard and his willingness to put in the time and energy that the league needs to further blossom.

17) While there are plenty of lucrative sponsorships that she could have participated in, this year, Marcella Toriki has instead agreed to participate in an international health initiative to raise funds and awareness for the current health crisis that we are experiencing. This ad features a variety of athletes from across the league talking about measures that can be taken to help reduce the spread, how to manage the new normal that we are experiencing, and what other actions can be taken to help on a global scale. Marcella Toriki's well known for her international family, and as such, her primary segment revolved around finding ways to "stay close at a distance" using technology to stay in touch. Practicing social distancing doesn't have to be a time of isolation and loneliness, and Toriki is proud to be connecting people with new ways to engage with the people they love in a safe way. She also appeared in the section that touched on mental health in the pandemic. As someone who has experienced mental health issues and has struggled with the early stages of sheltering in place, she was glad to put her time towards providing a message of solidarity and comfort to all those who watched the Ultimus game this year.

19) The New Orleans Second Line has cultivated a team culture that is absolutely amazing. I came to New Orleans as a free agent, with full knowledge of what I was walking into. The Second Line is not so much a football team as it is a family, a collection of people linked together to do the best that they can on the field and to support one another off it. Almost everyone on the team is wholly dedicated to being a team player and pitch in to get things done. The team leadership constantly include others in the conversation to make sure everyone is on the same page and is content with the decisions being made. Given the position I hold here, I struggle a lot with feeling appreciated or wanted in the league, and I know that most days, I can pop into the Second Line locker room and have a pleasant experience to lift my spirits and feel like there is in fact a place for me here. The leadership in New Orleans works tirelessly to provide an excellent league experience for everyone on the team, which inspires people to want to spend their whole career marching to our beat. I'm honored to be a part of the NOLA family and have a strong belief that our team culture is one of the absolute best.

20) My happiest memory in the league happened very very recently. I wonder if you can guess what it is. . . Yes, my current happiest memory is winning the Ultimus as part of the New Orleans Second Line. As a team, we had a strong start to the season, being undefeated for weeks. But then, the first loss came, and more followed. Straight wins, straight losses, with a giant question mark over the playoffs. Beating Austin was exciting, the first win in a while. But then came time to face the Orange County Otters, the other of our big rivals. That game had a lot of nerves beforehand, and being able to walk away with the win, knowing we were set not just to play in the Ultimus but to HOST the Ultimus game was so surreal. I was ecstatic, not for me, but for my GMs, TomHanks and Juosu, and the rest of the team that has worked to build NOLA to what it is today. Then came game time, and I was overjoyed to watch my little team win. Not just win, but win BIG. Getting to be in the locker room after the game was amazing as everyone celebrated the victory. Having a chance to bask in the feeling of being champions, and seeing the purple go up on the banner filled me with so much joy and is easily one of my happiest moments here so far.

6) Next year: The Tijuana Luchadores had a roller coaster season. After starting 5-3, we lost five of our last six to finish 6-8. We just missed the playoffs by one game. I think we can be much better next year because many of our best players were late-bloomers. After getting off to slow starts, our S22 running backs Richard Gilbert and Julio Tirtwidjaja, LB George Fisher, WR Thomas Passman, and S Literally Just A. Hexagon have overtaken their peers by making late season TPE pushes. Since none of the Luchadores have absolutely elite TPE totals, it is likely that most of the S22 class will be sent back down to Tijuana after the NSFL draft. This means we’ll have maxed out players at the following positions: 2 max QBs, 2 max RBs, 1 max OL, 1 max WR, 1 max CB. If Hexagon and Fisher keep pushing, they’ll max out easily too. With that many starters at the DSFL cap, our offense especially should be dominant next season. Despite Ed Barker likely getting called up to NOLA, I expect our team to have a fearsome running game that might be among the best in the league. Throw in two max QBs, and we’ll have much more success scoring the ball next season.

10) Armchair QB: As previously mentioned, the Tijuana offense should be unstoppable next year. Unfortunately, our defense, particularly along the defensive line, is looking quite deficient. Our wonderful GMs struck out on a few picks on the defensive side of the ball, so I expect us to remedy that in the draft. Only two of Tijuana’s top 8 players from the S22 draft are on the defense, so we’ll need to do better this draft. If I was a GM, I’d take the best defensive player available regardless of position. Defensive line is the biggest need, but we could use another linebacker to play alongside Fisher with the likely promotion of Ugarth to the NSFL. We could also use another defensive back to pair with either Witten or Hexagon or serve as a nickelback. It’s never a good idea to lock into drafting a certain position in a certain round, but ideally the Luchadores will get a defensive lineman in the first round, a defensive back in the second, a linebacker in the third, and then take some more fliers at defensive lineman, pass catcher, and offensive linemen for the rest of the draft. Two intriguing options at DT are Tyler Mountain, who spent some time of the Luchadores roster this season, and Bane Kaʻanāʻanā, a recreate by new Honolulu general manager ADwyer87. We might also pursue drafting safety Adélie de Pengu, a recreate by new NOLA general manager Isastarcrossed.

12) Pay it Forward: No question, Jay_Doctor is my favorite person in the NSFL. As the Tijuana GM, he reached out to me in recruiting when I joined the league, and engaged me in conversation about my username, a reference to The Lord of the Rings. The very fact that he got the reference told me that he was going to be a friend. He does a great job of making the Tijuana players feel involved and valued, giving out game balls every week to the top performers and even giving credit to the big guys with our wall of pancakes. He’s a defensive back like me, and he plays for a championship-level organization in NOLA. While winning is important, he doesn’t lose sight of the main purpose of the DSFL: to engage and retain players, to build a community, and to teach and develop players for their time in the NSFL. I really appreciate that he took a chance on me with Tijuana’s second pick, even though I am totally new to sim leagues. He answered all my questions and helped me figure out how the league works. I have only been on one team, but I think he epitomizes what a good GM should be. He’s never been negative to anyone on our team and hasn’t pushed people into switching positions even when it might have been more beneficial to our team’s success.

18) Award Season: The Performance of the Year Award is a strange award. Unlike most of the awards, season-long performance and consistency are not considered. Therefore, I am suggesting that a relatively unheard of and unheralded player win this award. Magnus Valdyr is a safety for the Tijuana Luchadores. At 151 TPE, he is the eleventh safety by current total. Nevertheless, he had one of the most astounding performances in DSFL history. In a week 7 road game against the Utimus-winning Myrtle Beach Buccaneers, Valdyr had two interceptions, both which he returned for touchdowns. Only seventeen defensive touchdowns were scored in the DSFL last season in 56 games. Valdyr is the only player in the whole league with two defensive touchdowns this season, and they both happened in one game! Not just statistically impressive, these plays were incredibly important for the game and the whole season for the Luchadores. Valdyr’s first pick six was a 62 yard pick six in the first quarter which put Tijuana up 14-0 over their biggest rival. After a comeback by Myrtle Beach, the Luchadores were in danger of blowing the lead. The Buccs had the ball with less than 3 minutes to play down 21-16. A touchdown would have handed Tijuana their fourth straight road loss. Instead, Valdyr picked off another Chris Ramos pass, Ramos’s third interception of the game, and Valdyr took is 51 yards the other way to score another touchdown and ice the game. This win was Tijuana’s first road win, and after a win the following week, they were 5-3 and the number one seed in the division. Valdyr’s incredible performance with three tackles, 2 passes defended, 2 interceptions, 113 return yards, and two touchdowns, should win the Performance of the Year award because of its incredible rarity, the unlikely heroism of the player involved, and the season-changing nature of the road victory over the top team in the league.

2) Playoffs MVP

For this point task that we are being asked to write up in order to ensure our gain of TPE so that we can improve our players and make the general managers love us so they go and draft us and stuff. For this task, I'm going to be following the New Orleans Second Line and pick out their most valuable player specifically since that ended up being the team that sadly won the Ultimus. I generally have a lack of football knowledge so we'll see how this goes. After my top notch analysis of all three games played by the Second Line this season, I can undoubtedly say that M. Toriki was the most valuable player for them this playoff cycle. I do not know what the M stands for, but we can find that out together with the power of friendship of learning. He or she is a running back I'm pretty sure judging by all of the rushing yards and managed to secure a touchdown in all three of the games that the Second Line played, whether it be against the Copperheads, Otters or Wraiths. Actually, I just looked at the pages and realized that the quarterback got like five touchdowns in three games. That's a woopsee, too bad I don't want to rewrite this.

6) Next Year

So there is an immediate element of this question that I am already abusing to benefit myself so that I can still write about it but abandoning all of my morals that I have ever known. I am afraid to admit to the progression team members who may or may not be reading this that Carl Wheezer was in fact, not on a DSFL team last season so I am ripping apart the fabrication of this question in order to get my tpe. However, I am very capable of saying why the team that drafts Wheezer will go far next season without a doubt. First off, Wheezer just has a grind to get better and earn those total points earned so that he can get better perpetually. Imagine Odell Beckham Jr but if he was less overrated, actually elite and less of a locker room cancer. That's basically going to be Carl Wheezer when he is drafted by whichever DSFL team as that time of the season comes around. If you have a good quarterback on your team already, they're going to consistently connect like magnets or something else that connects easily. If you don't have a good quarterback, Wheezer is gonna make them look like a good quarterback with his skills and therefore that team will make the playoffs.

12) Pay It Forward

It is simply impossible to not list a singular player that has guided me back to this league and is basically the thing that reignited my interest in the league and drew me back. I discussed this a little bit in my presser that I started up and answered questions to yesterday so I'll try to not repeat myself here and get my tpe wrecked. Basically, I am a person within sim leagues that can be described as a drama beast. Drama fuels me and it gives me power in these sim leagues as long as it isn't related to me due to entertainment value. Prior to joining, I learned all about the Chicago drama and whatever was going on with their management situation. I guess Jiggly turned away a valid general manager option or something just because he wanted the branding to not change so he started up some sort of revolution and turned the war room against this option. Reading through all of the threads related to this situation was pretty epic and it is what ultimately brought me back to this sim league, so therefore Jiggly is a person that I very much look up to due to the level of drama that they were capable of producing. Also they retired right after a guarantee of the team staying in Chicago and that's kinda epic.

17) Sponsorships

For a player such as Carl Wheezer, it's pretty easy to pick out an item that he would choose to sponsor. Wheezer is a player of integrity, so he would only sponsor products that he really does enjoy using because he ain't no sneaky boy and only does what he believes in. This product has been one that has been instrumental in the life of Wheezer and getting him to where he is today in the world where he is a touted prospect of the DSFL. This is of course the Purple Flurp that is most prevalent in Retroville that everyone loves to drink. Now this is a sponsorship opportunity that Wheezer can get behind, it has just been way too impactful on his life to leave off. However, there is a problem in that he is a little camera shy and it took him a bit to be able to go through the script properly. This shyness is obviously proven in the fact that he was on a television show for however many seasons where he appeared in pretty much every episode if I am to be believed. Apparently Purple Flurp is actually really unhealthy for you or something but it is the fuel for Carl Wheezer that allows him to be such a pro wide receiver.

19) Team Culture

The culture in Chicago has been an ongoing problem that a lot of GMs have tried to solve. I felt that when Steelsound took over you could see a change. Our locker room was way more active and everyone wanted to win. We all supported each other and knew that it was up to us to change the narrative about this team. It felt really good to see us coming together as team finally. Without getting into the past drama, but once Steelsound peaced out our locker room and culture regressed back to its former state. Which is really hard to take as I had honestly believed in him and his vision. But here we are with two new GMs and I really don't know anything about them. In fact, when they first took over they said they would be reaching out to us individually to get to know us. That was like 2 or so weeks ago and I have not heard from either of them. The locker room has pretty much turned into a ghost town again. HalfEatenOnionBagel has tried to create topic discussions every morning for the past 3 days to help bring some life back into the locker room. If you want to improve our culture you should be communicating every day with your team, the direction, what you expect from everyone. And maybe follow through with what you say....

6) Next Year

Next year, the Dallas Birddogs are going to be stacked. While it is true that a good number of Birddogs are anticipated to be drafted early in the upcoming NSFL draft, it is extraordinarily likely that a significant number will be sent down to compete in the DSFL for at least one more year. Add on to this a high draft slot in the upcoming DSFL; you will see a good mix of old and new players. In fact, there are at least 10 players for the Birddogs who will be sent down while being maxed at 250 TPE. In their first season of existence, Dallas was on the cusp of a playoff berth. Towards the end of the season, their defense was on fire and unfortunately their offense sputtered a bit due to bad sim luck. On top of this, I project that rival teams, especially those within the South Conference, are going to be losing their top tier talent to the NSFL. Additionally, other DSFL teams did not have nearly as many active users as the Birddogs, so a good portion of their teams will stay stagnant TPE-wise. Lastly, the end of last years’ DSFL season left a bitter taste in many of our mouths, so we will certainly be looking for revenge and we believe that this will be evident in our effort. I believe that the Dallas Birddogs 2.0 will be the best team in the regular season and bring home the Ultimini Trophy.

9) Dynasty

In the DSFL it is nearly impossible to create a dynasty. Every year, your entire roster is uprooted and you have to start with essentially half a team. Those who draft well and are good at snagging late round talent are going to be the ones who can create a lasting dynasty. I believe that Gucci laid the groundwork for a great DSFL franchise that Kyle and new GM iSteg will utilize to this groundwork to lead the team to success for many years to come. The GMs recognize the value of having a friendly, helpful, and encouraging locker room while also introducing a little bit of a competition to spur TPE earning growth. Additionally, iSteg has proved to be shifting the paradigms in the NSFL and DSFL utilizing analytics to give the Birddogs a competitive advantage while the rest of the league sticks to the status quo for building their players. The spirit of the Birddogs will soon proliferate into all corners of the NSFL via the upcoming draft and this will cause it to be an ideal destination for new recruits entering the league. Most importantly, the Dallas war room is very committed and there are a few members who have shown talent for scouting. Overall, I would expect Dallas to be serious contender for the Ultimini Trophy for the next few seasons.

11) Rivalry

Although I would contend that this is more of a friendly rivalry, I would have to say that my personal rival mirrors that of our team. My personal rival is Acura Skyline as our team rival is the other expansion franchise; London Royals. Although Skyline and I have never communicated, we have many similarities. Both of our players were created at the same position around the same time, we are both speed running backs, and since creation we have essentially been in lock step with one another in terms of TPE earned. I definitely do not want Skyline to fail, but I have treated him as the pace setter for this running back class for new recruits and because of this, I hope to be drafted right before him. I also hope that this rivalry is ongoing as I think it is likely that we will be compared in almost all facets for the rest of our careers. While at similar TPE, activity, and bank account, Skyline currently had the advantage of statistics from our first season in the DSFL. He will undoubtedly win RBotY, but I am also hoping to win Special Teams Player of the Year. His situation in London was definitely more beneficial in terms of earning stats, but the Royals saw less success on the field. I have nothing but love for Acura Skyline, but that does not mean I do not want to beat him.

17) Sponsorship

After a few break out games (mostly at special teams) for the Dallas Birddogs, Kichwa Jones is told by his agent that he will be meeting with some executives to audition to be the spokesman for the popular Kit-Kat Bar. Kichwa is performing his lines nicely until it comes to the famous jingle where he can’t stop saying “break me off a piece of that Kich-wa Jones”. The people from the ad agency grow increasingly annoyed that Jones can’t sing the jingle correctly. Pushing up his glasses and pinching between his eyebrows, the head of the ad agency says, “Please, Mr. Jones, just say the name of candy, just say Kit-Kat Bar!” There is a long silence, “Kich-wa Jones” is the response as the ad executives yell and throw their papers in the air. “Just, get out” they say as Kichwa and his agent leave the room. Kichwa looks to his agent and asks “Do you think I got the role?” His agent just shakes his head and starts to walk off, as he does this; he pulls out a Kit-Kat Bar. Kichwa then asks, “Hey, would you mind breaking off a piece of the Kit-Kat Bar for me?” The agent just stares off into the distance and says, “You’ve got to be kidding me”. The commercial fades to black.
