1) Playoff Predictions, Reviews:
The game i chose to review faced the 6-7 Baltimore Hawks to the 7-6 Colorado Yeti. This Hawks team is more than used to getting into playoff games, but they got to this one without home field advantage. It was a very close game, up until the end of the third quarter it was always a 1 possession game between the NSFC teams, but in the 4th quarter, a FG by the rookie Jordan Jackson extended the Yeti lead to 10 points. The best the Hawks could do at this point was to score a TD, with a Corvo Havran pass to Apollo Reed, leaving about 3 minutes on the clock to try at least to tie the game. Unfortunately for them this was not possible, as the Yeti managed to keep possession and run out the clock with 3 first downs, sending the Hawks home without getting the ball anymore.
Looking at numbers, the game was pretty close for both teams, maybe even with a slight inclination to the losing team, but a costly Interception in the first drive of the game thrown by Havran and picked by Lejune proved to be somewhat decisive.
Good job by the Yeti, they will face the candidates Wraiths for a place in the Ultimus game.

3) Revenge
The team i would like to get my revenge next season is the Orange County Otters. I know, why should a team like the Arizona Outlaws seek revenge on the perennial Ultimus candidates Otters?
Simple. After we got to Orange County on Week 3 and spanked them 23-13 on a game that surprised everyone, they had the guts to come to our own stadium in Arizona on week 9 and hand our asses to the crowd with a 46-17 score.
Now, this should not be allowed. How on earth does Franklin Armstrong go from being completely shut down on one game, to an MVP performance on the other? The dude threw for 308 yards, with 4 TD's and no INTs. Was that enough? Noooooo. To make matter worse, he also ran for a TD just to make fun of the league.
I mean, sure, he is a good QB, but come on... This game should have been resimmed as he is clearly using some kind of cheat code.
But next season the Outlaws want to make the record straight. No way he is going to do the same to us, especially in front of our home crowd. Armstrong needs to get tested for PEDs.

7) Next Year
The Arizona Outlaws did not win the title this year because they are probably the unluckiest team in the league.
First of all, they finished 7-6 for the season. Not a bad record by any means, i am sure you agree. But this decent record meant they finished 4th in the ASFC. Can you guess how many wins away from the 1st placed team? Yes, exactly, one. And with the exact same record as the 2nd and 3rd placed teams. And if we add all the point differences for 3 of those losses, we get... 6 points. Amazing.
The problem is that next year the team will be gearing up for Season 22, so while we intend to be competitive and crush some teams dreams, the team will enter its prime then. Jay Cue will probably be over 1000 TPE, the rookies will evolve into great players as well and if we can get a couple of good additions on free agency, trust me, we are going to get there.
The team is well coached, as it proved this season, so we are looking forward into next season to maybe create some kind of surprise. If not, season 22 is our goal.

10) Reform
If i was in charge of the league, i would reform some things, but there are 2 that i am most "passionate" about that would end some of the problems that come from it.
Firstly i would do everything i could to finally be able to change the league name. We all know what NSFL means and the bad connotation it has, so something needs to happen because of this. Some people can't even open the website because of filters, and imagine you telling someone you play a game called NSFL. Yeah, i think you see where i am going with this.
The other thing i would change would be the tampering rules. We all know it happens, punishments sometimes come late or are non existent given the evidence, so why try to control something that cannot be controlled? If i go into discord and slide into someones DMs and tell him i have a place for him on my team, the only way the tampering will be punished is if he complains. If i am close friends with someone in real life that is a part of the game, and tell him to join me, he will never say anything about that as well, so i am tampering without any possible punishment.
Just make it legal for once and let's stop pretending people respect this rule.
