Written: Write about an active human offensive lineman or special teamer that is in the playoffs, and how they will or did affect the outcome
As a player of the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers I am fortunate to be playing alongside not one or two, but five human offensive linemen - which is lucky because I hate when bots get oil on my uniform. Of these linemen, three stand out as high achievers that have given our team a significant boost towards making the playoffs - and will now be essential to a victory in the Ultimini. The three linemen I am speaking of are Simon Tremblant, Bruce Buckley and Douglas Quail. Between the three of them they account for over 130 pancakes and only four sacks allowed. Though both Simon and Doug are experience linemen that have been to the big game before and will be a big part of leading the Myrtle Beach running backs to, I expect Bruce Buckley to be a standout for us in the game against Kansas City. This man is a behemoth and boasts a strength rating of 90, showing enough power to manhandle any defender that may try to make a tackle on Dax Frost or J.B Apollo, or look to break through the line to make a play on Chris Ramos (or potentially even Tom Sofa). While it is yet to be seen how these players will perform in the biggest game of their careers so far - it is certain to be a moment they all remember as significant contributors towards the teams success.
3) X-Factor
Written: Predict one player on a playoff team who you feel will make the biggest impact and push that team into the championship. Choose someone besides your own player for this task.
I belive a player who will be an x-factor for the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers is James Angler. "A backup Tight End as the X-Factor player?" you may ask, and a resounding yes would be my answer, as Angler is not just a backup to the Buccaneers, but a full time offensive contributor. There is not a formation that the Buccs play out of where Angler isn't on the field, filling the vital role of Fullback in two formations, and Tight End in the two others. Being paired with a well known quantity in Heath Evans has helped Angler's blocking game improve dramatically beyond what is expected out of a normal Vertical Threat tight end, ending with a total of 15 pancakes over 12 games and not allowing a single player to get past him and to the QB. As a part of the TE Gang of course his true strength lays in his ability to stretch the field from all positions and open up the underneath routes for our wide receivers. As a "backup" player I fully expect Angler to see his fair share of success in this final and most significant game, helping provide that x-factor towards an Ultimini victory for Myrtle Beach.
19) Team Culture
Written: What is it about your team’s culture and/or locker room that makes you happy to be there? If there are any problems, what do you think should be done to improve them?
The much touted Myrtle Beach Buccaneers Locker room, the envy of many teams and the target of many memes. Being a part of arguably the most active locker room in the DSFL has been a wonderful introduction to the sport of sim football, and the greater DSFL/NSFL. While some have dismissed it as a "gamer boi meme zone" I have found so far that many of the most helpful players I've been fortunate enough to experience either reside in this locker room, or spend significant amounts of time there. The locker room is so fantastic that we often find members of other teams sneaking in to enjoy the experience for themselves and distract themselves from a lifeless locker room of their own. I'm very fortunate and blessed that my team mates have nominated me as a captain of the Buccaneers for Season 21 and this will allow me to enjoy the privilege of access to the private areas of the locker room for another season as I settle into the locker room of my new NSFL team, wherever that may be. I believe that the only flaw in this locker room, and it's a glaring one - is that Frost can't make a deadline to save his life.
