Sit Down with a Star (completed with @maxcrazy) (338 words)
1) You were both the highest scoring (with 4 touchdowns) tight end this season in the DSFL, and had 0 sacks allowed. Do you think you can continue this balanced skillset effectively in the NSFL?
I think I can. While I was in the DSFL, I worked hard with my coaches and General Managers to come up with a plan that I had stuck to for the entire season. I plan to stick to this plan unless my new General Managers have a plan for me, which then I would do whatever they think is best.
2) Are there any NSFL tight ends you look up to, or who you particularly enjoy watching film on to improve you own play?
I'd say Verso L’Alto from Baltimore. That guy is an absolute tank and someone I try to watch video of and learn from. He's an incredible player and someone I can learn a lot from I think.
3) How're you feeling as the draft approaches? Nervous? Excited?
I'm super, super excited for the draft. I have a bunch of teams that I would love to go to. I've heard a lot of good things about teams that I'm excited to experience. It's always fun meeting new guys and getting to play with new people. I've worked really hard in the DSFL to get myself ready and prepared for the NSFL and I think I'm ready to show the league what I got finally. It's going to be a blast and I plan on having a lot of my friends and family around to hear the news when it finally happens.
4) Favorite restaurant in Ilsip, New York? (Your birthplace)
Oh man, favorite restaurant? There is place on Main Street, called Bubba's Burritos. It sounds weird as hell but it is simply the best burrito I have ever had in my life. I can eat those burritos for days if someone let me. Put some of their homemade hot sauce on it, and you'll be on cloud nine man.

“He got me,” Bayley said of Bush's 33 yard catch over him. “That f**king Bush boomed me.” Bayley added, “He’s so good,” repeating it four times. The blatant rental trade of Carter Bush from the Philadelphia Liberty to the Baltimore Hawks had a clear and obvious effect. The young wide receiver broke 100 yards on seven receptions in the Season 10 Ultimus, and had his team's first touchdown of the day early in the first quarter. Although the NSFC championship game saw weaker passing attacks, Bush still lodged a team high 78 yards, and was only behind star runningback Owen Taylor in receptions, with six against Taylor's seven. The New Orleans Second Line (who the Baltimore Hawks met and defeated in the Ultimus) also traded for a star receiver from a conference opponent, but it's harder to make an argument for his critical impact because in the championship game, he marked just 5 receptions for 54 yards, good for only third on his team. It's for this reason that the move of Carter Bush to Baltimore before the week 11 games has a strong argument as the single most impactful trade of the season on the playoffs. It will be interesting to see if the number of rental trades continues to increase.

OKAY FELLAS STRAP IN. YOU ALL KNOW WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. YES YOU OLES, I KNOW YOU READ THESE SOMETIMES. WELL HERE GOES AGAIN....... SAY IT WITH ME: "TURK TURKLETON IS THE ULTIMUS MVP" BUT THIS PT ISN'T ABOUT DISNEYLAND.... BECAUSE TURK TURKLETON IS AN UNSUNG HERO. Okay that's enough with caps lock.
Just look at the stats. They're plain to see: five field goals. Five! Guess what my man, I can do basic math so I know that that's 15 points my bro Turk Turkleton put on the board for the Hawks. Did I mention he also made 2 extra points? Yes fellas that's right, 15 plus 2 equals 17. Turk Turkleton put up 17 of the Baltimore Hawk's 29 points. Without him, they only have 12 points. The New Orleans Second Line scored 23 points... 23 is more than 12. But 23 isn't more than 12 plus 17 (which equals 29). Are you understanding what I'm selling, and will you buy it??? Turk Turkleton, the man the myth the legend, also punted 4 times for an average of- oh just 41 yards. That's not great. But, he did have...! 0 inside the 20. I feel like my argument for the kicker unsung hero fell apart in punting last season too. Oh well. Turkleton is, at worst, MY hero. Love you bby
