WRITTEN: For many, the NSFL is their main or only Sim league and for some it is one of many leagues. In at least 200 words, write about your favorite things about the NSFL or favorite memories, people you have met, etc.
I joined the league way back in June 2017 after seeing it advertised on reddit through either r/azcardinals or r/madden sometime in late May. At first I really thought it would be way to much work for me but days later I signed up. The rest is of course history as Lavelle finally looks to be heading into his final season before forced retirement kicks in, but that's the player.
I've got many great moments, from early on being a waiver player on Yellowknife in an incredibly active LR and of course the season after with defacto GM @Bzerkap picking me up. From there we've lost alot of good guys but people like @SwagSloth made that Wraiths LR a great place to be.
I remember finally winning an Ultimus in S8, after 8 seasons of disappointment. I remember watching the entire S2 Draft live on twitch until my boy Torque Lewith got picked (he plummeted and has gone IA but ilu). I remember watching all the live streams with Muford and requesting Juicy by Biggie on loop. I remember it all.
I remember all the good shit talking times in HO with slm, dwyer, bayley, asylum and many more who passed through that role. I think far too often I forget just the brain drain that occurs and stress as a result of that role, despite being in it for over a year real time myself. I apologize to the members of HO who are no doubt by now sick of my "feedback" or suggestions and I in the future will try to step down from my involvement in the league after my players retire. I think I really need to learn to let go and understand that it's not my league anymore and that change will happen organically.
I remember all the times when everything was going wrong with me in my head, my body and with everything else. I remember finding solace with @Ben when I explained my situation and he could comprehend what I was saying, albeit those paragraphs could've been sent altogether as opposed to 5000, single lines. I remember all the times this league brought me out of depression and other times gave me an escape that was temporary and not permanent and the latter choice came up far too often but thankfully I never followed through with it.
I've likely missed loads of great moments but to me this league helped me in more ways than I'll ever be able to pay back either financially, verbally or through a mix. A lot of people will comment jokingly about how the league has taken over their life or became a big priority but for me the league didn't take my life, it saved it.
