NSFL is my main league and I’ve really enjoyed my time here. I also dabble in SHL and EFL, but as my first league, I feel more connected here. It started out with me going to the Wraiths and, as I’ve said many times, I had no clue what I was doing; I was completely lost. But they took me in and really helped me out. Especially @Bzerkap and @NUCK. I also got to know a lot of great teammates like @White Cornerback, @CDub2, and several others. It was just a fantastic experience. Bzerkap also taught me a lot about GMing when he made me his co, which allowed me to become the new Arizona GM yesterday.
Leaving YKW was tough. Eric Kennedy was a lifer and I wanted him to retire there, but I didn’t know what to do next. In truth, I have a habit of getting comfortable around people and not branching out. I could have stayed in YKW forever; the co-GM spot was still open, I believe, and we could have found ways to keep me around. Heck, if I didn’t position change from QB, YKW probably could have picked me up in the second round. But then I would only interact with one 8th of the league. So, I took the plunge and tried to get the drafted as early as possible.
Arizona drafted me and I was psyched because they drafted me 3rd overall. I knew I was a top earner, but it still felt good to be picked so early. I was nervous going in as I only knew a few people, but the LR was super inviting and they treated me really well. I knew a few people like @DeathOnReddit, @run_CMC, and @Durden going in, but quickly got to know the rest of the locker room (who I’ll tag at the bottom, so many haha). I enjoyed it so much that, when kolbe retired, it made me want to make a commitment to the team because I knew they needed me. And, when Run had to step down (after a great run as GM with some unfortunate luck), I decided to become a GM again. I really enjoyed the role when I was a co, but personal matters forced me to step down. Thankfully, I’m now in a place where I can return to this type of role and really excited to continue to be part of this amazing squad.
