4) Rivalry
My biggest rival is Shepherd Marshall, LB for the Norfolk Seawolves. He's a dirty player who has no business anywhere near the field, even on the sideline where he does most of his damage. In our first game against each other he clotheslined me out of bounds even though he wasn't even playing yet! He talked some trash after the game and I was all geared up for our second game against each other, where he was actually playing. I was able to get a few good licks on him blocking downfield but only got a couple carries and didn't get any chances to run him over.
I'd like to think I can keep my emotions in check if we end up on the same team. It'll keep me giving 100% every practice knowing I might get the chance to truck him, or even make him look silly with a juke. But deep down what I really want is to play against him. I want to be in the Ultimus, ball on the one, down by 5. I want that hole to open up in front of me and to see him standing on the goal line. And I want to run his ass over.

6) Expansion
Financially it might not make the most sense, but would they have put an NFL team in Green Bay if all they were worried about was market size? If I had the power to make one expansion team I couldn't resist dropping it in Oakey's Holler, WV.
Sure, we might only have a couple hundred people, but we could draw fans from as far away as Moonshine Ridge, Possum Bottom, Paw Paw, maybe even Pennsylvania Incorporated Coal Town. The team would mean more to the area than it would to anybody else, so I'm sure they'd be coming from all over to pack the stands.
For a mascot it's tough to pass up the Miner, but I'd like to get a little less stereotypical. We could go with the Jugs, with Juggy the Jug as our mascot and it opens up some very interesting options with the cheerleading squad. But my favorite mascot idea would be a cape buffalo. They're the only animal I've heard of that, when there is danger, charges directly at it instead of running away.
For a color scheme, I've always been partial to maroon and orange, the colors of the hills during fall (football season!) It'd look like the hills were all colored up for the home team.

20) Ultimus Ad
Me and the rest of the boys are headed for a photoshoot for Budweiser, and I can't wait to see it hanging up at Old Oakey's General Store next time I go for a restock. I think there was some clause about alcohol endorsements in all the stuff I was supposed to sign when I got picked up off waivers but I shredded that part and nobody seemed to notice.
Anyway, the ad is going to be a life sized posted of a few of us throwing back some cold ones, maybe with a stack of empties behind us like in the good old days. There'll be a little slot where our hands are for them to stock beers so people can grab them right out of there, although I'm not sure who wants just one beer or why they'd want a warm one. But there you go.
I'm going to be signing as many of them as I can get my hands on, definitely signing the one back at Oakey's. I don't think Budweiser wanted me to do that because they're afraid that people might steal them if I ever get popular but I shredded the dos/don'ts thing they sent over so there's no real way to know.
