(S23) - PT2 - Draft Day

[Baron1898]

Venus Powers had a rather rocky relationship with her drafts. First up was the DSFL draft. As a home town native of San Antonio, she originally hoped and expected to be drafted by the San Antonio Marshals before they rather unexpectedly changed branding and location by moving up north to Minnesota. This betrayal by the Grey Ducks also defined her feelings towards the draft - she fell to 20th overall, but more importantly was not even the first kicker off the board, since Silver Banana went to the aforementioned Grey Ducks one pick before. However, the Pythons were a good destination regardless. A year later, she experienced the thrill of the draft again, and this time around the experience was much less laced with bitter feelings. Having no preconceived notions of team quality, barring of course the Chicago Butchers, she was rather happy landing at fourteenth overall, this time to the Philadelphia Liberty. It also helped tremendously that in this draft, Venus Powers beat out Silver Banana for the title of being the first kicker off the board, which set the tone for her soon to be Hall of Fame career tremendously. Overall, the drafts were a mixed bag, but the thrill of it all was unmatched.
