New Talent: Obviously the biggest trade would have to be when the Yellowknife Wraiths traded for Arbin Asipi. Now it's not to say that they gave up too much, or that it was a bad trade. What did happen however is Yellowknife received the asipi curse. Long story short Asipi ruins any chances of winning a playoff game because he is trash. Now that pretty much sums up what I was going to talk about but as of right now I am only at 84 words so I guess I am going to have to add some filler. Uh another really big trade would have to be Carlito Crush to the Otters. Crush is a great player and locker room guy and will be a great player on an already great team. Adding his name to the Otters will (if he stays in Orange County) help extend their window for a few more Ultimus with guys like Phelps hitting their regression period. Ok what so I am still not at the word count are you kidding me? That is absolute bogus and I am super mad. Now to go yell at Oles for being a dufus and beating the Wraiths.

Matchup Nightmares: The upcoming game between the Orange County Otters and the Philadelphia Liberty will be a good one for sure. With superstar receiver Bradley Westfield going up against the vet Kevin Cushing in his last year in the league, this will be sure to be an electrifying matchup. However I feel like for Cushing's last game, he might get burned quite a bit by Westfield. Now why do I think this? Well for one, Cushing has never really been a top of the line Corner, and when he is going up against probably the best player in the game at wide receiver, there is no way he can keep pace with him. Another reason he can't compete with Westy the besty is because Mike freaking Boss is throwing to him, the most decorated quarterback in the game. The final reason Cushing is going to be burned is because he will have no help. With Phelps and Crush playing on the same team they will be taking up the attention of the other corner(s) and even the safeties. This will make Cushing have to go one on one with westfield, which if he does he will most certainly get burned. I am predicting at least 150 yards for westfield in the upcoming ultimus

Questions with a fan/star thing: red = questions by me, blue = answers by daybe
1. How has your experience been with the yeti so far?
to be honest it's not been all that jazzy as I expected. I guess I got high on winning in san antonoio and now becoming good freinds with the pythons organization, but I definitely wasn't expecting 0-14. I guess you can't expect too much from a young team being led by a rookie quarterback, but it was a breath of reality to me and after one year of sample sizes of tape going against elite talent, I'm ready to build off of that.
2. with the recent resigning of their co gm, how do you feel about the change of leadership?
well, im not sure what i think of it yet, to be honest. matthew vincent was the only gm from the yeti that was really in contact with me most of the way and he really painted a great picture of this organizations future and what my importance and role would be within the team. I also know our new gm is a different type of guy, so its definitely weird stepping into the locker room and not having the same greeting i always gott from vincent. Its definitely bittersweet, the way vincent would push us to get better.
3. what record are you predicting for the yeti next season?
I'm going to say that we finish off the year going 5-9. we're going to win. Im sure of it. But I think we are still in that growing phase, and having a new gm doesn't help. that being said, with a lot of S1 players getting older, its going to be easier to be able to compete with him, particularly for our receivers howard and dwayne, who were having to battle these guys who had 5, 6 seasons of experience in the league. A lot of changes this offseason, and free agency is going to factor into that equation as well as the draft. But thats my early prediction
4. Your rookie season left something to be desired, what do you need to improve the most this off-season?
I definitely want to increase my pocket awareness. Sacks was for sure something I struggled with in my lone year in San Antonio, and this year it showed up, playing against better competition. I don't want to point fingers and call the OL out cause they do a great job. I think its more of me, getting more agile with my footwork, and developing more strength so i'm not out of breath every next play after a big hit in the huddle.

That Magic Moment: The magic moment of the Ultimus had to be when the infamous Josh Garden took the opening kickoff to the house. Garden was known from the previous ultimus for dropping a crucial game winning touchdown in the endzone, and ultimately costing the Liberty the game. He made up for it in this ultimus, setting the tempo for the rest of the game with the opening score. After that happened the Otters didn't look like the 3 time Ultimus champions that they used to. The Liberty took a huge lead, and almost lost it but managed to pull it out in the end (daybe you can't pull out). After many failed attempts at winning an Ultimus, Garden has finally managed to put a trophy in his home. Many thought that Garden was cursed and would be unable to win an Ultimus with him on the team, but those theories have been put to rest, as the Liberty not only beat the Otters on the road, but the Wraiths as well. In what was an amazing journey to the trophy the Liberty had many amazing moments, but Gardens opening Touchdown had to have been the best without a doubt. Congratulations to the Liberty.
