9) If you could create a team using any active players in the league, what would that team look like? Would you build a group of all-stars to contend in the next Ultimus, or a team full of jokesters for the fun of it? Describe the roster and why you chose the players you did
I’m creating this team for one thing: To win the Ultimus. So I’ll be picking the players at each position that I think give me the best chance to win.
Quarterback: Colby Jack, Yellowknife Wraiths
You’d be hard pressed for a better selection for your championship contender’s QB than reigning Ultimus champion and MVP. While not quite as successful this season, Jack was still top 3 in most statistical categories
FB: Kichwa Jones, Austin Copperheads
I’ll be using my FB for blocking mostly, and Jones currently leads FB in pancakes and was the obvious choice
RB: Tatsu Nakamura, Arizona Outlaws,Raphtalia Chan, Sarasota Sailfish
This duo combined this season for over 3k rushing yards and 30 tds, so my team will have a potent ground game. Together they also had just a hair over 600 rec yards so they can make a difference in the air as well.
WR: William Lim, Colorado Yeti, Ed Barker, New Orleans Second Line, Jed Podolak, Honolulu Hahalua
With over 5k receiving yards and a whopping 40 touchdowns from this trio during the regular season, Colby will have plenty of targets down the field to catch one of his many passes.
TE: Zee Rechs, Yellowknife Wraiths, Clark Boyd, Berlin Fire Salamanders
Two great targets for those short passes and in the red zone, this pair also offers help with blocking with 110 pancakes between them.
OFlex: Zoe Watts, Austin Copperheads
Watts is both a monster on the ground and through the air, making her a perfect choice for the flex position
OL: Adam Mellott, New Orleans Second Line, Bruce Buckley, Yellowknife Wraiths
Better bring your syrup, because these two brought over 230 pancakes this season, while allowing no sacks
DL: Ke'oke'o Kāne-Maika'i, Honolulu Hahalua, Raylan Crowder, San Jose Sabercats, Big Edd, Colorado Yeti, Hank Steel Berlin Fire Salamanders
Whether it's sacking the QB or stopping the run, these guys have no problem disrupting the opponents game at the line of scrimmage
LB: Douglas Quaid, Yellowknife Wraiths,Melvin Murder-Moose, Colorado Yeti,Rusty Rucker, Colorado Yeti, Haha Mango-Panda, Sarasota Sailfish
These guys excel at shutting down the middle of the field, with 50 sacks and 39 PDs as a group to their credit.
CB: Andrew Witten, New Orleans Second Line, Colt Mendoza, New York Silverbacks
S: Maverick Bowie, Austin Copperheads, Cuco Clemente, Sarasota Sailfish
NB: Desmond Scarlett, Arizona Outlaws
No receiver is safe with these guys in coverage, with a total of 23 ints and a whopping 130 PDs.
K: Jake Fencik, Philadelphia Liberty
P: Jacob Small, Sarasota Sailfish
Returners:
Kai Sakura, Yellowknife Wraiths
Matt Krause, Berlin Fire Salamanders
Both dependable returners, both punts and kickoffs

16) The bank now accepts ISFL currency in exchange for real money – every ISFL dollar counts as $0.50 in the real world. How much money would you exchange, and what would you spend it on?
I’d be making a beeline to the closest bank to convert some money. As a man with two daughters and the typical bills of a middle aged, married man, I’ve got plenty of things I could spend my fictional ISFL dollars turned into real money on! Right now I have right at $27 million ISFL dollars in my account, so if I converted half of that into real money, then I’d have about $6.7 million to spend. My wife would definitely want to look for a new house. Her car is also not awesome and too big actually, so I’d get her something newer and smaller, and I’d also pay off my truck while I was at it. I’d finally be able to afford that Disney World vacation that my family has been pestering me about for a long time as well. Next up on the list would be college funds for the kiddos. I would definitely donate some of my windfall to charity, because there is no way I need that much money all to myself. Some of it would definitely go towards saving for retirement. Although I love my current job, you never know what the future holds so knowing that I was financially secure would be pretty awesome.
