As astute ISFL users with a good taste of music might recognize, my first player in ISFL is inspired by Avenged Sevenfold guitarist Synyster Gates (not his real name obviously) as I have almost copied his stage name. I just think that's an excellent name for a defensive back. Like here you go Mr. Quarterback, try to get through these gates because I fully intend on clamping down receivers, ends, backs. Doesn't matter who coach has me on, I'll make sure they're blanketed.
Growing up I always loved defense. As a (currently sad) Broncos fan I fondly remember the names of the early-mid 00s DBs. Guys like Champ Bailey, Domonique Foxworth, Nick Ferguson, Sam Brandon, John Lynch and of course the late Darrent Williams. Williams is the reason for Gates to wear #27 as that was his number in the NFL. Taken well before his time, as a young person it was odd to understand that an NFL player who was in the prime of his career and completely healthy just be gone in an instant. It's a little somber without a doubt.
Not to end on such a sad note, I'm looking forward to my first career in ISFL. Although I consider PBE as my primary league due to my GMing there, I definitely want to have a solid player over in this league. It's great to see some familiar faces from PBE and SCFSL and I'm excited to have a fresh player in a fresh league. I'm a little rusty since I haven't created a player in a sim league in almost a year and a half, but I think I can figure it out!
So is this the trend of more media posts for me? I'm not sure. Is this a way to get around $500k out the gate which can maybe buy something? Yeah, technically. Is this the best way I can think of to do Item 5 of the rookie PT: Part 1? Absolutely.
See you on the field. Receivers beware.
