The day L'Alto's name was called....As a user, nunccoepi, I barely remember the time. I honestly don't think I appreciated the league and what went into the draft as much as I do now. Being really involved with the league has really helped with that, although thinking back, I wasn't even sure at the time that I was drafted that I would stay involved, much less continue on a full calendar year later. I am of course talking about the NSFL draft. I was never drafted to the DSFL, but instead claimed off of waivers which I regret because two drafts are more fun than one.
Nevertheless, I wish I had appreciated it a little bit more. I went second overall which is a lot higher than I expected to go but was about where I was being mocked by all the mock drafts going around. Again, looking back at the time, I am incredibly blessed to have been apprecated so much to be drafted above legends like Ryan Applehort, Vlad Fyodo, and Mason Brown. A part of me was really hoping to going 1 overall but i was told that I wouldn't have a chance. Most of all, I was actually expecting to be taken by the Otters, in fact my own mock draft said as much. But I couldn't be happier with how things turned out.
