Written Option: It’s everyone’s favorite time of year, both in the NSFL and our counterpart NFL. What is your favorite thing about the beginning of a new season, whether it is your first year, you are a veteran, or you are just excited your team hasn’t lost yet. Write about what you are excited for or what your plans are for opening day as a fan or player.
What's my favourite part about the beginning of the season? My favourite part is when you offer up a suggestion to change/alter preseason so that in hopes of limiting the offseason of nothingness and while not the sole reason of the post , it would've resulted in the limiting of errors because you could have multiple people check and re-check the file if you made a task list of x is doing y and z is doing a. You then get replied to, some make sense and I understand the perspective while others berate you because they're in a position of power, but hey it happens in every sim league.
My second favourite part of the season is where it seems literally everybody dropped the ball. Between updaters apparently updating threads but not editing roster pages, or the csv not being checked or from Head Office rushing to fix a situation without checking the rest of the file. Then telling us that we won in the re-sim, staying silent there after and then saying they're going to go back to the old sim file. Don't be fooled, I have no problem with which file is used, the one thats riddled with over half of the leagues teams being fucked (file1) or the second one which is also riddled with team mistakes with just Austins ones fixed. That's not my problem, my problem is how people tryed to spin it asif Austin were at fault. Or that it wasn't fair that our team was fucked. We went 0-13, we open a thread and see people spinning it on us and in the very end we didn't even get an apology back. Did anybody get an apology back? I don't think anybody did. I think there's a very real possibility of seeing a Las Vegas Legion esque situation if people are already building up a rhetoric that we're moaning for the sake of it. Or acting asif the entire locker room was up in arms. You're not in our discord and you have no idea what you're talking about.
Since I'm over 200 words here (for you poor bastards of the PT team that have to read this, I apologise), I might have went a little off track in my rant here so I'll add a bit in character.
Realistically my favourite part of a new season is just that, we're out of the hole of preseason/offseason which lasts too long. It's boring, nothing happens. This doesn't mean I dont understand that there's alot of work going on behind the scenes or anything, but when you're on the outside, you're losing members. Retention is down, people who joined from reddit that offseason are losing focus looking at blank forums that don't do anything (thank god for the prospect bowl, but that's not enough).
My other favourite part of the new season is the new hopes it brings, hopes we can at some stage get the fuck off jcink.
