(S24) - PT 1 - Trivia Night

[Rufio_NZ]

One of Howletts earlier accomplishments was when he had an open lane and spotted a gap in between a team mate and the opposing teams member. So I was intending on using a lateral behind the two players but instead I lateraled the ball as I was being hit by an opposing teams players helmet in amongst a tackle and by doing so I missed the teammates hands and it bounced off an opponents helmet and then fumbled onto a opposing team members foot, breaking it and slicing it open. It was graphic, it was gory, the player was horey. It was a really disappointing moment in Howletts early career but he recovered, and by doing so he made himself stronger and better as a player. He went on that year in college to make himself known as an alpha to fear, but that moment and the career he ended early will forever haunt him, which was his teammate of course, if you're following along still. It was clearly a mistake and a freak accident but it didn't stop the teammate from blaming Howlett in what should've been an avoidable accident. Needless to say, Howlett has gone on to have a great career thus far in the DSFL and has good prospects leading into the NSFL, playing for the Baltimore hawks.

The best bit of trivia my player was apart of known leaguewide. Occurring whilst stay playing for the Minnesota Grey Ducks, what seemed like a normal game day turned into anything but.

The now famed game was due to F-speed Jamar, who for a perplexing reason, had absolutely no speed in him and became a sitting duck, pun intended, for the defence to destroy. Some say his lunch was spiked with a neurotoxin that destroyed the pathways suppling glucose to the muscles, effectively making him infinitely fatigued. Others suggested the match was fixed and he earnt himself a large pay check to throw the match.  However, the truth of this curious incident is nothing close to either situation, instead, Jamar had a bad case of food poisoning after his beloved teammate, Sim Snowbow, known well throughout the league as the “league’s best waifu”, attempted to cook the team lobster tails the night before.

He realised too late that the lobster was extremely undercooked, before throwing them away, Jamar came into the kitchen and took one back to his room. The results, as shown by the on-field performance, really costs the Ducks and results in Jamar being taken straight to hospital after the game to ensure his health was well looked after. Being a team full of jokers, his teammates made sure that when he got back together with the team, there was a feast of lobster dishes awaiting him. Jamar didn’t eat that night.

So most everyone knows the story of Jamar Lackson’s F speed performances for weeks three and four of the regular season a few seasons ago, in season 22. Even some of the rookies know about it thanks to its perpetuation in the Minnesota Grey Ducks Locker room. But many people don’t know that the re-playing of those games was not only annoying for teams that had gone 2-0 originally, like the Portland Pythons, but it was also annoying for the players that had good performances in those games, like the Portland Pythons’ rookie running back, Joseph Petrongolo. In the previous games, weeks one and two, Petrongolo had something of his own F speed moment, picking up 9 yards on 16 carries. However nothing was done about this. Then came week three, when he was feeling better. Against the Dallas Birddogs, he put up some pretty good numbers for a rookie, however he failed to reach the end zone. But week 4 against the London Royals, Petrongolo scores once in the first half, and then broke away from the secondary for a 62 yard banger of a run, his longest yet and his second touchdown of the night, AND there was still more than twelve minutes left in the fourth quarter. At that point Petrongolo had 2 touchdowns and 139 yards and with almost a full quarter left who knows how he could’ve done. Witnesses to the original games say Petrongolo ended with over 150 yards, but there is no way to confirm this as major television networks deleted all footage of the game, and the only known existing footage of the game is one 9 second clip of Petrongolo’s “Beast-Snake” 62 yard run.

I would like to tell the story of how the Otters came to get a hold of their co-GM, future GM, and other stuff cool dude Speculadora. You see way back around Season 7 or Season 8, I don't remember exactly the Otters GM Molarpistols was looking to step down and needed to get a co-GM in place to train as the future successor of the team. After asking for applications and talking to people he decided that the relative newcomer to the league Speculadora aka Poopyface Tomatonose the TE or S or whatever he was for the Secondline was his top choice. Spec wanted to be a co for NOLA but bovo already had someone, I think AsylumParty. So Spec said he was interested in joining us, we definitely wanted him, and now we had to trade.

Bovo was a real dick about that trade. He set such an exorbitant price and refused to back down from it because he knew we would have to pay it. This wasn't just for a great player, this was also for the co-GM and future GM. So the price wasn't just one 1st round pick, we had to throw in our own elite player, enter Majesiu's player Vlad Fyod(something something). Now we had drafted Maj with the 3rd overall pick a couple seasons before that, having received that pick as part of a trade that had us send Juosu to New Orleans. Jusosu asked out of OCO because she wanted to go somewhere and have a challenge, build a team up. She decided she wanted NOLA. So we sent Juosu, S7R3, S8R2 and received the S7R1 #3oa pick to later be used on Majesiu.

Now here we are a season or maybe two seasons later, and Bovo wants Maj as well as a round 1 pick for Spec. So we sent off Maj and famously forgot to tell him about it, he hated OCO forever after that. We sent off our S8R1 pick, and we got our guy. If you combine both trades we gave up a S7R3, S8R2, S8R1, Majesiu and Juosu for Spec. In the end those picks turned out to all be busts so it wasn't too terrible. And OCO built another dynasty with Spec as the GM. So it all worked out I guess.

Rookies and new players alike probably wonder why the whole Chicago Butchers locker room never says “game day” every time we have a game. Instead, we say “GAME 24 HOUR PERIOD” to remind everyone that we’re going to play a league game. Well, the answer why is simply because the Butchers have a very diverse locker room in regards to where people are from. Most live in North America but the Butchers also have @”IthicaHawk” who lives in Great Britain and @”indonesianhusker” who lives in Indonesia. Since it would not be inclusive if the team says game day even though it is actually the next day for them, @”halfeatenonionbagel” decided to change it to “game 24 hour period.” This takes into consideration current and future players that leave outside North America’s timezone. Funny story, rookie @”Maglubiyet” said to everyone “It’s Gameday” and @”TheCC” called him out for not including those living outside North America. I proceeded to call out CC as a bully to the rookie, even though he did for me who does not live in North America lol.
The Butchers locker room also has some sort of fascination with lawn mowing for some unknown reason. I suspect it is because the team is actually filled with Boomers who like to have a nice, freshly cut lawn that they can yell at kids to get off of. I wonder who has the lawn in our locker room? Probably something worth asking in the locker room.

If I were to ask you which player wanted to leave town from the London Royals after last season could you tell me who that is? Maybe, maybe not but I will tell you now that it was me, Tre'Darius J'Vathon. Despite earning the second most TPE among receivers on the team J'Vathon was relegated to the bench as the WR3 early in the season. Biggest reason being he did not speak much in discord and was simply put not involved much with the team. Is this mean a coach should bench a player that is still working hard and earning every point possible for someone who does talk a lot? Probably not but that's what the Royals head office did. This made J'Vathon very displeased with being on the team as he felt disrespected and mistreated simply for not talking much but still earning all the points he could. There was pressure put on the front office to find a trade partner for J'Vathon but by the time anything could materialize J'Vathon ceded his feelings and decided to stay. Now the Royals have the most dominate pass catching duo in the DSFL as they look to capture the franchises first Ultimi Championship before this current team all parts to bigger and better things in the ISFL. This is the Royals best chance at winning it all and it may not have been as great of a chance if they did go through with trading J'Vathon before he changed his mind.
