(S13) - PT 3 - NSFL Appreciation Week

[manicmav36]

The NSFL was my first ever sim league, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. I’m a fairly active member of the PBE community as well (which is a great league in it’s own right despite being based around the slowest sport known to man), but something about this league just keeps me locked in. Maybe it’s the sport (I spend more time watching and reading about football than any other sport), maybe it’s the people, maybe it was the success of my first player (Owen Taylor, GOAT RB) and first team (caw caw!), or maybe it’s our busted ass sim that keeps everyone guessing and makes things interesting. Well, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that it was the community that keeps me here. I was blessed to be drafted by the Baltimore Hawks and into a locker room filled with some really great people. Slm, raven, 37th, and barry all standout in my mind that made being a part of the Hawks so great (and everyone we added along the way), and in turn kept us so successful for so long. But time marches on, and things change. 37th is now GM of the hated Philadelphia Liberty (although slightly less hated now because of him), raven is a rookie awaiting his new home, barry is in Arizona, and slm returned to our old stomping ground. Although I don’t think I’ll ever be able to capture again how truly special that locker room was, that won’t stop me from trying, be it in Yellowknife or elsewhere.
