So you're new here, huh? Well you're in luck. I'm going to offer you a once in a lifetime opportunity - I'm going to take you under Mervin Leonard's wing and show you the ropes around this place. First we've got to figure out who you are; who you want to be. After we create your player I think it's time to take a walk down memory lane. We're going to cruise the NSFL wiki and the record books to learn about the greats in this league. I think it's important that you as a newbie understand and respect the men and women who came before you to create this great league. Once we've finished that it's time to take you on a tour in the world of TPE. Now that you respect the greats it's time for you to figure out how you're going to earn points to get yourself to their level one day. Now that we've created your character, learned the history and figured out how you are going to hopefully one day it's time to step into the cesspool - AKA the league discord. This is the heart of the league and where all the leagues wildest and most meaningful interactions are going to occur. Tour complete. Welcome to the league, rook.
This does not at all seem like a job that I would volunteer for so I'm assuming the league is paying me for this (just getting into the proper mindset). With that assumption in mind and now having some money to treat this hypothetical rookie right, I'd start out with showing them around the league's training facilities. I would of course throw in the caveat that despite the league having fairly high salaries for this level of play, the league also charges astronomical prices for the use of their facilities while forbidding any workouts elsewhere. It's a little creepy that they are able to do that so effectively but thus is the overwhelming reach of the HO members of the league. Thanks to the money from the league I could look super magnanimous in purchasing a first training for the new guy - they don't have to know that the first one's free! Anyways, with that stuff out of the way I'd pull up our beautiful index to start showing off mainly my own stats. If they don't want to look at my sack totals from last season and stare at them for several hours, that sucks for them! At this point this poor sap is probably sick of me and the league, so to try and fix things I'd bring them to the league's secret all-you-can-eat buffet, telling them that it is free for league members. Just kidding, it's not free, enjoy paying the bill rook.

Oh, so the task is to write about what you would do if you were a Rookie Mentor?
That’s easy, because I am one. “But RD, your username isn’t pink...” You’re crazy, yes it... oh wait... it’s not. That’s right, I don’t get paid for this job, I just do it out of the goodness of my heart because I truly care about these rookies. So what do I do exactly? I like to open up a line of communication early when people join the Discord servers. It’s important to get people talking in order for them to gain interest and have any of there questions and concerns attended to. Then it’s time to tell them about the rookie guide. That’s like the Holy Grail of joining the NSFL. As well organized as the rookie guide is, it still may look like Greek to someone who has never done this before (and doesn’t speak Greek). So I like to take the rookies step by step as they create their player and get acclimated to the league. To those I’ve helped along the way, I mean it when I say it was a pleasure. And some day I’ll be back in the Rookie Discord. Mark my words! ![]() [OPTION]Height: 6'1"

Welcome, kiddo. Get ready to squish it with the lemon. First thing you're gonna need to do to make it in the NSFL is train every week. Make sure you don't miss a single week. Also, drink your milk. Makes your bones strong. Are you from MLR? You are? Forget everything you know about throwing a ball. Correlates exactly 0%. It's like trying to put a square peg in a round hole, it doesn't work. Well, it does work if the length of the sides of the square is less than pi/4 times the radius of the circle. You get my point. Learn to throw a football, it'll help you in the long run even if you're not a quarterback. On top of all that, start sprinting more. Football's all about that quick footwork, you'll need to move fast on the field if you're gonna try and make a difference in your game. Point number 3, stay hydrated. Personally, I use my lemon flavoured Gatorade brand energy drink. Gatorade keeps you moving throughout the day with its electrolytes. It's part of every workout I do. Yes, I'm sponsored. You're gonna buy it anyway you capitalist moron. Last point I'll make then we'll get back to training: read a book or two. You're body isn't gonna carry you forever, so make sure your brain keeps up enough that the concussions only bring you down to partially stupid instead of fully stupid. That's all, now let's get back to the field and run some drills.

Look I am pretty new to the NSFL so I might be a bit rough around the edges when it comes to rookie mentoring but I have some idea of what it might mean to be successful in sim leagues, especially as of recent since I have made two solid players in 2 different sites. First I would get the rookie into discord since it is MUCH easier helping others out there, than here on the forum, due to being able to conveniently post screenshots of what is required. Showing them the ins and out of a weekly schedule of what to do and claim is definitely useful for them.
I would avoid giant walls of text and give them the information in a more digestible method of a brief summary and bullet points of what they need to complete. Twitter is one method of income and I can show them when to properly time out articles like the prompts during the off-season. I would link them weekly predictions to get on top of those and give them a chance to earn a decent amount of TPE. After all it isn't about hoarding here in the NSFL but about having fun. Equipment isn't for everyone either so no need to shame them into that. Overall I can close out with pointers on builds and then call it a day. 229 Words
