Chuckie is from Texas. You see, Chuck hates Texas. While he may love Texas BBQ, that is not enough to salvage his opinion. Most of all, he hates how stuck up and self absorbed most Texans are. Chuck's rise to football relevance started with him as a big, strong five star offensive line prospect from a city an hour outside of Austin. He was tired as being stereotyped as a big, strong, dumb, brute. Chuck did not like that stereotype, so Chuck decided to break that mold as much as possible. He did that by going to college in as different an environment from central Texas as possible. 

Chuck Roth packed up his bags and moved to the middle of nowhere in New Hampshire. Dartmouth was the college football team he chose to play for. He figured that the risk of playing in the ivy league and not being scouted was outweighed by the prestige that an ivy league degree would carry, should he decide to not play football professionally. 

Of course, Chuck excelled at this level as an offensive lineman, making first team all ivy twice and leading Dartmouth to an Ivy league title his senior year, before being drafted by the Portland Pythons.

Like many stereotypical Asian parents Cho was forced to take the academic route and did not touch a ball until middle school. The first sport he participated in was basketball and eventually after much convincing of his parents, football. During this time he began to study football like it was school which helped develop his football IQ. Cho attended Kentridge Highschool in Kent, Washington where he was a four-year starter and a multi-year first team all-state player. Cho also particpated in basketball, and track during the off season. Cho graduated with 4 letters in football and 2 in basketball. He was a five-star recruit and was ranked among the best players in his class. He committed to University of Washington to play college football. Cho’s start in his rookie year of college was a phenomenal one.  Cho played in all 13 games as a true freshman at University of Washington in 2032, recording 28 tackles, 8 of which were for a loss, and 6 sacks. In his sophomore year, he became the starting defensive end for the Huskies in three games. Cho was named a unanimous Pac twelve Defensive lineman of the year for his 31 total tackles (13 for a loss) and a team leading 8 sacks. Additionally, he had 3 pass breakups, and 7 quarterback hurries. His scouting report coming out of college ""High-motor defensive end prospect possessing NSFL play strength on a well-muscled, compact frame. Cho uses forward lean, smart hands and impressive upper-body power to pry open edges against the run and pass. He can defeat single blocks and fits as an end in both 4-3 and 3-4 fronts with the ability to reduce inside as a rusher. His lack of fluidity in space could prevent him from becoming an elite rusher, but he understands how to play and should become an early starter and future Pro Bowler

Demon Jaxson was born in Bedourie, Queensland but at the age of 17 he decided that he would uproot from his life in Australia and moved to America to study Neuroscience in an American University. When he realised however, that he couldn’t afford the course, he decided to play football to get a scholarship to study Neuroscience. Because he was a physical freak, the coach at Pomona-Pitzer football decided to take a chance on Jaxson, and he put him in at running back.

When he first began to play, Jaxson had no idea what American Football was, but realised quickly that it was somewhat similar to his favourite childhood sport, Aussie Rules Football. Due to his extremely high IQ, Jaxson managed to learn the playbook very quickly. Most of the plays in the book were drawn up around Jaxson due to the fact that he was easily the most promising specimen on his college roster, due to his sheer size, strength and footballing IQ.

Jaxson dominated on the field in his freshman season carrying the ball carrying the ball 152 times for 1095 yards and 13 TDs. Jaxson also played some snaps at defensive end after he displayed how good he was at the sport, and recorded 8.5 sacks, 2 Forced Fumbles and a pick 6. Jaxson began to force more and more on football in his sophomore season and got a whopping 1715 yards from scrimmage and 20 total TDs, aswell as getting 11 sacks, 3 Forced Fumbles and 2 INTs with 1 DTD. Unfortunately for Jaxson, he never found much team success in college as the team around him was always mediocre at best, but, his newfound discovery that he was actually ok at football prompted him to pursue a career in the big league.

Adam didn't go to college. He got a job right when he turned 18 and then several weeks later, after helping paying rent and bills, his mother kicked him out of the house. And by house I mean studio apartment where 5 people were living. Also it was the week before Christmas. So he went to school by day and worked as a security guard at night before getting home in time to sleep for 5-6 hours for several months until school ended, at which point he decided to not really go to college. Also, being short, 140 pounds, and very underfed, he didn't actually know he was an athlete. So he focused on working an unarmed security job late at night in questionable areas as well as making sure he could do things like eat and sleep regularly. As you do. He almost went to community college briefly but instead got a graveyard job at Wal-Mart in a neighborhood so bad that it became one of the few Wal-marts to ever close. Then he moved to a trailer park across the street. No one could argue that this represented a significant step up in quality of life. He did play a few pickup games of football against friends from time to time in the park. The excellent play he would consistently have didn't strike a chord with anyone present. He did however gain some acclaim among his fellows for selling a shotgun to a postal worker (in full uniform). 

Later he moved to several other states, got married, drunkenly became a professional hockey player and then was drafted #69 overall by the London Royal in the S24 DSFL Draft.

During his high school football career Raylan Crowder slotted in at Linebacker & Defensive End where he excelled at stuffing the run. On the other side of the ball he would take occasional snaps at Tight end when a big body was needed in the end zone. As a senior Crowder was named state defensive player of the year after racking up 140 tackles, 40 for a loss and 26 sacks. This went alongside 2 catches for 15 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Crowders senior year almost didn't happen. 2 days into the term his car was written off when a truck ran a red light at an intersection. Miraculously he got away with only minor injuries.


For college Crowder was given offers from Boise State, Utah and Washington before ultimately settling on Arizona state.

Crowder struggled in his first year at college focusing on the linebacker position. He didn't manage to shine in the slightest registering 15 tackles across the year and seeing only back up snaps.

Year 2 was when Crowder hit his stride after bulking up and moving to the defensive line. He had 1 monster game at the start of the season and continued at a high level the rest of the season ultimately losing the Lucky Charms Sunbowl against the North Carolina Wolfpack.
