Offseason Point Task - 25th Anniversary Special

[Mavfatha]

The ISFL and I have had quite the run. I joined over 2 years ago at the urging of the infamous kckolbe among others (he's who I listed as my recruiter because he helped a lot with my initial build as a DT when entering the league). I played briefly as a waiver pickup for the Pythons before being drafted by the Coyotes. I would take over as a GM for them not too long after, and enjoyed a fun run with that job and learning about building up a DSFL team. I didn't stay in the role for too long as I would go on to bigger and better things, joining HO in early 2019. I was never the greatest HO member in retrospect and I think I knew that as the time as well, but it was a good experience for most of my tenure working with some great folks like ADwyer and "other mav" aka manicmav. Myself and the league had a falling out in early 2020 (holy heck I thought that was longer ago, what a weird year), at which time I stepped down from HO and stopped updating my first player. Obviously not the happiest memory there but just a warning to anyone that reads this to not let yourself take the league too seriously - if you're not having fun, it's not worth the pain. Anyways, I couldn't actually stay away for long and at the urging of folks like Muford in particular as well as Jay Doctor who at the time was head GM to my co-GM in another league. Conveniently, the two of them were also GM's here, and Jay drafted me to Tijuana for my DSFL days as Icebox Riposte before Muford drafted me to Chicago where I've now had a successful rookie season at the ISFL level. Really it comes down to the people, including many other folks on Chicago like FFS who we discovered was born in the same hospital as me in the same month of the same year. I would also be remiss to not give a shoutout to my fellow members of the "fair rubs" club, including caltroit who is one of my favorite sim league users and I am lucky enough to be teammates with across three leagues currently. I would also like to highlight the enjoyment you can get even from playing lineman positions in this league, as well as the well-implemented Twitter system here that has always felt more natural to me than other leagues.
