Interview A Superstar
We interviewed Michael Witheblock(WR - KC) and got his take on a few questions about the league as well as the most recent ultimus and playoffs.
Who would you consider your biggest rival and why?
Our biggest rivals in the league as a team are the Portland Pythons. I don‘t know exactly why, it‘s just a historical thing, I guess. We are in the same league, they like to trash talk, we answer it. You know, just like those rivalries are built up. We also had our conference championship game against them, which we could win. That was a good feeling.
Individually I don‘t have a rival I know of. At least for the moment there is none.
What would you consider the toughest obstacle during this years playoffs?
The toughest obstacle in the playoffs was something we lost on the last two gamedays of the regular season. We only had to win one more game and we would have the home field advantage throughout the playoffs, so also in the champoinship game. But we lost both and had to play the Ultimini in Myrtle Beach. This was a tough challenge and it was too tough for us on that day.
Who do you see as a favorite to win next year in the DSFL?
There are several teams, which may have a shot. The defending champions, Myrtle Beach will for sure have a shot, but I also wouldn‘t count out the Dallas Birddogs. They had an awesome draft this year, so they have a solid team to build up on. And for sure the Kansas City Coyotes will have a good chance to be next year‘s champion.
How do you prepare for a playoff game?
The preparation for the whole team is similar to a regular season game, but a bit more in depth. I for myself have my rituals going into a game, I don‘t change that for the playoffs. You heard of Gardner Minshew‘s jockstrap? I also use it to the fullest extent.
We wish to thank Mr. Witheblock for his cooperation in making this interview happen.
Scouting Report
Tychondrius Hood
Tychondrius Hood is the type of player you want in your locker room as well as on the field. Hood is hungry for wins and a great presence among his teammates. He is the first one to congratulate a fellow player, or hype up his team before a big game. Hood has never been in trouble or made any off-the-field errors.
Now lets talk about what he's like on the field.
Hood played 3 years at the University of Florida, immediately making impact plays as a return specialist. He would score 3 times on returns as well as 2 rushing and 6 receiving touchdowns in just his freshman season alone. He would make strides the next season after being promoted to the WR2 position. His sophomore campaign would net him over 900 yards through the air and 9 touchdowns, not to mention 450 yards on the ground with 3 rushing touchdowns. His longest catch would be a 65 yarder against LSU to win the game with time running out. He would go into his junior year with a top quality quarterback, and high expectations. With college ball being as unpredictable as it is, the star QB for Florida would break his leg, ending his season, and dashing the hopes of Florida fans. The backup quarterback would be a true freshman, a very raw player. Hood would see a drop in production afterward, only netting 864 yards and 8 touchdowns. Although his production was low, he would make the best of any situation where he got the ball in his hands, averaging 27 YPC and a long of 84 yards, 65 of them being after contact.
Nobody is really sure what they will get with Hood. Does he need consistent quarterback play to be a star, or will he put his destiny in his own hands and show NSFL fans that he is a force to be reckoned with? We'll find out as the upcoming DSFL draft will be on April 22nd. Hood hopes to be one of the first wideouts off the board. We'll just have to wait and see.
Pay It Forward
Lets talk about Michael Witheblock. I've been a part of this league for only a few days, and while many have offered help and given me tons of tips and advice, Michael has gone above and beyond. As a fellow WR he has answered any questions I've had so far, as well as just being all around friendly. This league has so many new(and young) players, I'm amazed at how friendly and helpful players like Michael have been. There honestly isn't anything more he could have done to help. As a new face I've been able to figure out how some things work, but any time I'm struggling to figure something out, I know that I can count on Mr. Witheblock to assist me. I'm the type of person to ask a million questions until I understand something fully, and Michael didn't even blink at my assault of inquiry upon his mind. He's been a great mentor for me, and I would highly recommend him as a mentor for any other prospects. Him and his team have been very welcoming and patient, and I couldn't appreciate his help any more than I do now. To conclude, Michael Witheblock is the man, no cap, on fleek.

Tychondrius Hood has been contacted by GATORADE to appear in a new commercial. Hood, being one of the gators most explosive and fun to watch players is a fairly obvious choice especially for gator fans, where the sports beverage was developed. The commercial will be a commercial about never giving less than 100%. This is perfect for Hood, as his junior season was wrought with inconsistent quarterback play, after their star QB suffered a season ending injury during the first game of the season. Hood would never speak poorly of his quarterback, even through poor play from the young freshman. Tychondrius Hood would play every game with all of his heart, and that is why Gatorade wants to put him in a commercial. Hood spent a day with gatorade executives on Friday to discuss the commercial and the details surrounding his deal with them. The executives reportedly "fell in love" with Hoods personality and are considering making him the poster athlete for the very popular drink company. The commercial will be a 30 second ad and will air during the DSFL draft, fittingly enough, as Hood is hopeful to be drafted early in that draft. Hoods comments on gatorade - "I drink it sometimes."
