So here's the thing. I haven't been super involved since joining the league super late (as in after the DSFL draft) and had a full month where I went MIA doing largely the minimum in a lot of things, but wasn't even able to manage that in the ISFL. But that doesn't mean that members of this community were anything less than supportive and just in general fantastic. Obviously my various and assorted GM's reached out to try and get me to do updates, but the interactions went beyond that too with some health checks and good chats. I appreciate the multiple people from both the Pythons and Hahalua so thank you guys for the past month.
Keeping up with a general theme considering my limited league interactions I've had a ton of fun from the moment Murphy was approved. Within the hour @zeagle sent me an invite to the POR LR and everyone was great welcoming the random waiver wire pickup less than a day after they just welcomed an entire new draft class. So thank you to everyone on the team in S28, you guys are wonderful.
Moving on up to my big moment going in the second round of the S29 ISFL draft to Honolulu (after a lot of people were idiots and had me mocked to go 7OA) there was the usual barrage of pings and welcome messages into the LR, but @siddhus sending me a direct message to give a personal welcome was a very welcome touch. We didn't talk at all in the lead up to the draft, but to have the GM go beyond a LR welcome message really was a nice touch and something that I've taken with me back to the SMJHL whenever our new draftees join the Kelowna LR. Thank you guys for putting up with a super late create who went IA for a month and is now so far behind in TPE it isn't even funny. I appreciate the welcome I have received every step along the way.
