One of the biggest busts to ever grace the halls of the National Simulation Football League is the player who was selected first overall in the league's first ever draft way back in Season One. J.J Reigns, otherwise known by the public under his player name of "Shaka", was surrounded by hype and anticipation heading into the coveted first season of the NSFL, touted by many athletes and scouts alike as one of the greatest defensive players of all time. To the dismay of many though, Reigns fell off the map part way through S1 and became an irrelevant roster filler for years to come.
Reigns now sits on the roster of the Colorado Yeti as an interim player, filling a position that the Yeti have struggled with. While Reigns has yet to retire, the public figures that with him falling into the end of his career and facing off against regression in the short term, Reigns will no longer be a viable long term option for Colorado, a team that prides themselves on being fresh faced and prepared for the future. It's sad to see legends of the community such as Shaka lose interest and vanish, but with new leagues come growing pains.
