5. The one playoff team not named the Seawolves that I am interested in this season are the London Royals. It might have been due to me scouting a bunch of their rookies for the upcoming season twenty-three National League draft, it might be because they are my hometown draft, and I always want to see London do well. With that being said, as a fellow two seed, I know that the Royals did not have an easy journey to the playoffs, and I will only partially attribute their success to finally changing their initials from ‘LON’ to ‘LDN’, if only because no true sports team based in London would ever use the former initials.
The Royals have faced more troubles getting into the playoffs than would be expected from a two seed. With a pre-season record of four losses, the Royals looked to be for a tough season, normally losing their preseason games by two scores. And with a record of six wins and eight losses, this struggle was made abundantly clear. The Royals suffered a five game losing streak between week four and week nine, which seemed to take them out of playoff contention entirely. The worst of these being the thirty-eight to three demolition at the hands of the Tijuana Luchadores. Yet, an a great early start, combined with a competitive two and two finish to the season, with one of those wins being against conference rival Portland, and finally, combined with an incredibly weak Northern Football Conference, the London Royals managed to secure a playoff spot.
Now of course, I do not want to demean London, they had a lot of good stars stay on, and picked up a lot of good figures in the draft. The face of the franchise, quarterback Colby Jack put up the second most passing yards in the league, with an output of two thousand three hundred and ninety three yards. His effort ensured that the Royals had the third most passing yards in the league. Season Twenty-two wide receivers Susan Cash Jr and Nick Kaepercolin were stalwarts of the team and helped propel them forward. The former ranks eighth in receiving yards over the regular season, picking up six hundred and fifty-nine yards for five touchdowns. The latter ranks fourth in the league for receiving yards, with seven hundred and ninety-seven yards for another five touchdowns. On defence, new pickup Mikel Van Perkins secured three interceptions and forced one fumble. (409 Words)
8. Coming into this league, I was not really sure what to expect from it. I was not too familiar on how anything worked, and I believe that my first impressions on the website were “what in the bloody hell have I gotten myself into with this” Right after I created my character, Suleiman Ramza, making him a quarterback despite the website’s warning not to. My thought process behind it being that the Rookie Tasks would only be available to me now, so I may as well use that for my quarterback, who would need as much TPE as possible. I am really glad that I chose to be a quarterback, because right after I created my character, if I recall correctly, it was only about five minutes after creation, that one Franklin Armstong, or as his account is called, Moonlight, messaged me to talk about my new character, how to be a quarterback, and ultimately, just reassured me in my decision and gave me a friend to talk to, in times when the league became a bit overbearing, or when there were moments that were too much to understand.
Being drafted by the Norfolk Seawovles was a great feeling. Obviously, there is a big time difference between Greenwich Mean Time and Eastern Standard Time, and as a quarterback, in a draft class stacked with quarterbacks, I knew that I would fall pretty far. I remember feeling dejected around two thirty in the morning, really thinking about why I had fallen so far. However, as pick one hundred eighteen came up, and my name was announced loudly for the world, I immediately lit up, and found my dejection replaced with euphoria.
In the two seasons that I have been in Norfolk for, I have met some really incredibly people. Tesla, Lightnoir, Bex, Scorp, Juni, J0EB, and so many more have gone into making my journey as a young quarterback so much more fun. I remember the pain of the pattern of winning on Tuesdays, and then losing on Thursdays. I remember the joy of winning both of our games on the last two weeks of the season and making it into the playoffs. I really feel like my player has had some great games, which have really validated my choice to be a quarterback. With this season, I believe that I did not throw an interception until the last four weeks of the season. And with the unpredictability of the league, I am looking forward to leading the Norfolk Seawolves into another playoff game. And hopefully, I can lead them to an Ultimini this time. (434 Words)
