3) For any team, certain players and users have gone above and beyond, shaping the legacy of the franchise. Choose any ISFL or DSFL team and create a Mount Rushmore for that team. Who in your mind are the four most noteworthy figures of the team’s history? Why does each one of your included figures deserve that recognition, and how did each of them make their mark?
The New Orleans Second Line, originally the Las Vegas Legion, have a long and interesting history in the league. There are countless players and users that could be considered for the Mount Rushmore of the team. Ben and Bovo back in the early days were instrumental in coming up with the great idea for NOLA and players like Borkus Maximus III and O'Sullivan are still at the top of the records and brought the team their first Ultimus Championship, but after Borkus' time in the league was done there were some dark times, but these four users were instrumental in bringing NOLA out of the depths and into a team that not only won an Ultimus recently, but also has been a regular playoff contender. Those four users are Juosu, TomHanks, Terrible Hippo, and Slothfacekilla and that is why I am picking these four users as the Mount Rushmore of the New Orleans Second Line. I'll start with Juosu who was a GM for many seasons and was forced into swapping her second player, Stan Francisco, to play quarterback, a position that she did not really have any desire to play, but did so willingly nonetheless. Without Juosu's sacrifice we might still be a bottom of the barrel team. Juosu has also been around the team for the longest of the four users I chose as Francisco was her 2nd NOLA player as Julian O'Sullivan was her first and is still at or near the top of many of the record books and was a key defensive member of NOLA's first Ultimus Championships. Not only did she help turn the team around with Stan but she was also the GM during this turnaround, and this is where I talk about TomHanks who was the co-GM when I got drafted in the S18 draft and has been another major reason this team is where it is now. Tom has spent hours upon hours testing for NOLA and finding our best strats to succeed. He also was very important in recruiting Bex when she was a free agent. He also was the major reason that I was drafted to NOLA as the steal of the draft because he realized I had a ton of unclaimed TPE. He orchestrated a trade after S21 that got us the 2nd pick in the draft which got us Tesla, who will go down as an all time great NOLA user when all is said and done. I haven't even mentioned how important Forrest Gump has been on the field for NOLA's success as well. Gump and Francisco were the backbone of the offense for years. Terrible Hippo has done a lot for this team both on and off the field. In the Locker Room Hippo hypes the team up with his extremely well written defensive game ball posts after each game. On the field Quenton Bode, the polar bear line backer, has been a staple in the middle of the NOLA defense for a long time and is approaching the record for most tackles in a career. It's hard to describe the importance of Hippo to the team, but he has been in the war room since before I joined and has always been a voice of reason. He has helped steer us towards the right pick in the draft as well as steer us away from the wrong picks at times. Slothfacekilla has an interesting story when it comes to his time with the New Orleans Second Line. He came in originally in S15 along with Bode and Gump as the new corp of the franchise. His first player Johnny Slothface was instrumental in the teams turnaround and winning our first Ultimus in many seasons in S21. Slothfacekilla made a huge sacrifice by retiring Johnny Slothface early to become the eventual quarterback and replacement for Stan Francisco who was approaching retirement. Slothface was on a hall of fame trajectory before he retired, so this was a big sacrifice for Sloth to let his first player go in order to help the team. He is now leading the team with his new player Ben Slothlisberger who just finished his first season as the NOLA QB and got us one point away from being the top seed in the ASFC. Sloth like Hippo has been in the War Room since before I joined and has always been a great contributor to the conversations we have in the War Room. Without these four members on the team I don't know what I would do. Being able to ask them what to do in practically any situation has been so helpful, and I don't think I would've wanted to be a GM for NOLA without them around to guide me in these next few seasons as I help guide the ship with their input and advice which I am so glad to have available.
