Wow, it's been a while since I first joined the ISFL. I joined this league as a rookie in Season 10, and now we are all the way through Season 25, which means I've just completed my 16th season in the league as a player. Throughout my time in the ISFL, I've held a few positions, including Head Office and as an updater.
The ISFL hasn't always been the number one priority in comparison to other leagues, but that is perfectly fine to me. I very much enjoy the ISFL because of its less competitive, more casual nature for player building. Starting out with Danny Grithead, I built a special player, getting drafted by the Orange County Otters as they began to retool following their strong first three-peat. With Grithead, I joined a team once again on the rise and won two Ultimus championships with the Otters with their fearless leader speculadora at the helm, a person I respect and value greatly to this day. At Orange County, I met some fantastic people who I still talk to today, which is an incredible thing. timeconsumer, MrStennett, and moonlight are only a few of the great group of people from Orange County, and I consider myself fortunate to have been drafted to such a great team full of great people.
Going on with Grithead, I moved to the Yellowknife Wraiths in free agency in anticipation of expansion. What was supposed to be a one year stay with Yellowknife turned into the rest of my career, as I fell in love with the fighting culture and the mission to build a winner in Yellowknife. Daybe and BigRed passed the torch onto shadyshoelace and flyeaglesfly29, and I am so impressed with the team that still stands today, a living testament of all four of their work with this team. Winning an MVP as a defensive player was the highlight of my time here in the ISFL.
Now, today, I am the quarterback of the New York Silverbacks. I am eternally grateful to flyeaglesfly29 and the rest of the YKW management for helping me find a spot in the ISFL as a QB when they didn't have to. With New York, I find myself again in a fantastic spot, with a GM duo of woelkers and bwestfield that are dedicated and passionate, and a young team with limitless potential. I can't wait to play out the rest of my career in New York and continue to have a blast in the ISFL.
