Tier 2:
Expansion
Expansion always seems to be on the horizon in the ISFL as it has recently already expanded but might be looking to do it again in the near future. One of my first takes to explore is my dislike towards the DSFL as I understand it's purpose but honestly we can just get rid of it and grow and develop true rookies in the ISFL without the need for a developmental league that no one cares about the year they leave it to join the big leagues. If this were to happen you could form a far more robust and full league that could have a number of different storylines and free agencies that actually can mean something rather than a team being chalk full of studs at every position thus making the league more enjoyable for all. While this is very far from actually happening I do believe another expansion vote would be beneficial for the league because it is becoming more apparent that teams are full with talent both in the DSFL and ISFL which only points to expanding the league. The current set of teams are all pretty much deadlocked and the deciding factor of who does good and who does bad primarily seems to be sim luck (which being on San Jose previously certainly helped us). Expansion also creates a buzz around the league and I think promotes activity and hype around the league because it can sort of become a slog of similarity and boringness but if you bring a few new teams into the fold it can have different types of mindsets formed in users heads such as wanting to go their to build a legacy for their player and team, vehemently going against such a team because you hate expansion like a nerd, or hype around how they'll do their first season much like the Golden Knights in real life. One of the issues that does arise with expansion is the quality of the GMs, a counterpoint I may add would be that we have a number of great GMs either in the DSFL currently would could definitely use a shot in the big league or older members on the site would thought they might be an alright GM but never really ever got the shot due to the amount of long standing GMs in the league such as the GOAT Ckroyal. While expansion is an often debated sort of thing, j think the debate really should be over with for a least one round of expansion because I think it can improve the quality of the league in other ways such as the streams, locker rooms, and general flow of ideas.

Tier 3:
Draft
To go meta at the start of this explanation, my previous player Tyron Brackenridge can be considered as one of the greatest San Jose Sabrecat defenders of all time and might even crack the Hall of Fame one day. If a team takes a chance of Andy Fantuz they are getting a long standing member and an active one that looks to grow until I'm maxed out and fight regression as long as humanly possible in this league. While Andy Fantuz might not be the fastest player on the field, he does have the surest hands in the class and looks to rack up the receptions for any quarterback that he ends up teaming with. Andy Fantuz is an active member in any locker room that is looking to add a wide receiver and looks to grow with the team in order to have a championship shot, which Brackenridge had twice. Andy Fantuz will be the steal of the draft if he falls out of the first round and any GM that is willing to take the chance on him will certainly not regret their decision as I usually remain loyal to the team drafting barring any significant issues or winless seasons. Ultimately, Andy Fantuz will be a great addition to any team that is willing to make the pick and the rest of the league will regret that decision not to draft Andy Fantuz.

Sim
I remember joining back in season 17 and even then the sim was takes about as bad and the league was looking for any chance it could get to change away from it due to its irregularities and problems. While I haven't really paid a whole of attention to the new sim I do believe that it has been a positive change to the league as well to the work put in to the committee that determined all of the different archetypes and stats for players to make it much more fair and realistic rather than have one single meta for any player to follow if they want to be successful. While the overall sim has been good, the one huge downside has been the quality of the streams which has gone way down in my opinion due to the sheer length that somebody has to wait just to watch their game because sitting around for over an hour and a half to see your team play is ridiculous and needs changing. The league needs to institute some sort of change before this gets out of hand with another round of expansion. While I do like the set archetypes, it sort of limits the creativity that some individuals can have with their play in regards to stuff such as height, weight, and overall build that they want to go with.
