3) Revenge
Talking about the Luchadores Ultimini loss will probably be a recurring theme throughout these write-ups, but I definitely would like to get revenge against the Grey Ducks next season. Of course, that comes with the assumption that I don't get drafted to the Grey Ducks this year. I have no bad blood against the team as a whole; this game is a business and when push came to shove they did their job better than we did on gameday. That being said, if I'm taken by another team that gets to play against the Grey Ducks next season I'll have a little bit extra motivation to make my presence known. They kept me without a stat line in the biggest game of the year; that is very clearly a learning opportunity for me. In their defense, Bakhtiari and Rocky are two of the best lineman in the league currently. They both put up almost 50 pancakes last season, and Rocky only allowed one sack during the entire season. They've got quite a wall built up in Minnesota, but my job is to knock that wall down however I can. You can bet that if I get another shot at it that is exactly what I'm going to do.
4) Resim!
It is tough for me to choose a game here as I had a rough end to this last season. I'll admit it, I didn't show up for the playoffs. I came out of the gate hot after being picked up by Tijuana with three sacks in the same number of games, but wasn't able to get a single sack during the playoffs. And I only managed one tackle during the playoffs! I'd have to go with the Luchadores Ultimini loss as the game that I'd like to resim. From a more selfish perspective, it was the game that I didn't have a single sack or tackle in. The more obvious reason that I'd want to resim this one is the 13-16 loss that we suffered in the championship game. We needed to show up in the trenches and we didn't. We let the Grey Ducks run all over us for 5.1 yards per rush on 38 attempts. They didn't even have that good of an average on their pass attempts ( they had 4.7 yards per pass )! Letting running backs run circles around you and not having a tackle to show for it is not a great feeling. I'll be looking to work on my tackling in the offseason to make sure that I don't slip up in the spotlight in the future.

11) Heroic Performance
While it wasn't the best performance of the year statistically for Jed Podolak, running back for the Luchadores, his rushing game against the Pythons in week 1 of the season was a great showing. Podolak had a few other games throughout the season that netted him a better stat line, but with those games being against the winless Seawolves I didn't see them as being as important towards Tijuana's late playoff run. Podolak posted a stat line of 26 rushes for 152 yds and a touchdown in this game, leading the Luchadores to a 24-13 victory, giving Tijuana steam out of the gate that would lead to a 4-0 start to the season. His 5.8 yards per carry is extremely impressive given the high number of rushes he was given during the game, allowing Tijuana to stay run-first and grind out a victory. Podolak was also helpful in the passing game, adding three receptions for 14 yards to his numbers to solidify his nomination for offensive player of the game. Post 152 yards also aided Podolak in posting the 2nd highest rushing yards on the season with 1544. While this game probably won't go down in history as an all-time best performance, consistent performances like this are instrumental to bringing a team to victory and to the postseason.
