Oh man finally the new season is dawning on us and we can finally get back in on the action! I think we as the Yellowknife had a really great offseason and were able to bring in some amazing new people! Unfortunately our star wide receiver Tommy Helanen was found mysteriously dead after our Ultimus defeat, was it the bitter taste of defeat or the Burial Grounds but we needed someone to help our wide receiver group out and we were able to snag one of the most prominent free agents in Bender Rodriguez! With him, Nate Swift and Rayne Gordon, Cooter Bigsby will have lots of weapons to throw to. Add in the fact that Bender is great in the locker room, I really like it. In addition to this Free Agent signing we were also able to draft a few rookies that will make a huge impact. With Neo Donaldson having an up and down year, we drafted the next greatest kicker in Dougie Smalls and he will jump into the big leagues right away and look to make kicking history. In addition we will also have our first round pick, Douglas Quaid, make his mark on the big stage this season. With our defense starting to age, it will be great to have Quaid in to make the youth movement real!

The Arizona Outlaws know that this year it will still be a rebuild year. The team did not suffer a lot of changes to be honest, as it was not very active in free agency and did not lose any important player. But some very good players were drafted and even though they might still not be up to par regarding NSFL TPE, we can already tell that they have been amazing additions to the locker room. Our defense will be stronger with every season that passes and our offense is already loaded with great players.
Getting to the playoffs will be like last season, probably we will not be able to get there, never mind getting into a conference final or an Ultimus game. The fact that we are also on the toughest conference brings another level of problems for us.
Still, the team is working hard to improve, to reach its prime soon so that we are able to get better results and hopefully get into deciding games in the NSFL. It will not be this season, but i feel like next season we will play harder in FA as most of our players will be reaching TPE levels that will allow us to be contenders.

Being in New Orleans, we really focused on our future in this past draft. We didn't grab any free agents and we sent all of our draftees back down to their respective DSFL teams as we were already stacked for this season going in. We've built well and are ready for the season as it comes, so we focused on strengthening what may be future weaknesses. For that reason, I'll talk about the DSFL team that I am closest with! The Norfolk Seawolves have always been dear to my heart and it is hard to not get excited now that they seem to be striving. Two strong classes in a row and I feel like this last one can really put them over the edge. Our offense is mostly returning this season and should get work done, so the draft focused our defense where we got a stud in Thubba Bumper in the first round. This cornerback knows what he is doing and he was quick to take a leadership role. We knew what we were getting when we snapped him up and I couldn't be happier about the role he has taken in our locker room as the savior of Norfolk. As the team leader, he has really raised morale for the team and he should keep it that way as we progress. We also grabbed Magnus Rikiya and Matt "Son of Havoc" Cross in the second round. We needed to bolster our defense as quickly as possible and these are two guys that should come in and have impact immediately. We didn't think either of these guys would fall as far as they did and even traded up for one of the two. They're going to have immediate impact and they've shown an eagerness getting ready for the season. I think players like these three are what we need to really push us over the edge and the DSFL should be on alert for the GOAT boats.

As a Player and the GM of the Portland Pythons i knew what the team Needed That being a Monster Defense since that was our main weakness last season. Now there's two sides to that Monster defense one being our defensive team as a whole and to build a wall to protect our star quarterback in George O’Donnell. So With that laid out to you now let's talk about some of the newest Pythons in the Snake Pit. where to star oh i know let's start at CB Since we got three of the best CBs in the draft with Tyler Oles JR, Alexander Hamilton II and Zamir Kehla Anyone of these three could be stars on any Team at CB but by having all three makes them even more dangerous. now let's talk about Safety we Added in Shawn Dawkins who's got a good chance to make big moves at safety and i have hope to see him put in a Safety of the year Season. Now the other side of that Coin the Offensive linemen my fair rubs boys. this is hard since we have Stacked O-line that is built for one thing that being to protect our QB. There are many more names i could talk about in our new Rookie lineup but i think i'll save that for a podcast or something else.

My team, the Dallas Birddogs, had to scramble in tthis offseason as they had to build literally the whole team with only limited resources of draft and trade. However, I am quite sure that our team, lead by co-GMs Gucci and Inverted, managed to complete that task well despite aforementioned limitations. In the draft, we managed to build a solid team without having any senddowns. Our offense is now built around franchise QB Monteray Jack and his weapons- namely Mike Lee aand me, William Lim, as wide receivers, and top talent Jeffery Phillips and late round gem Tristan Hex as receiving Tight ends- and strong running game personnel led by White goodman(the best runningback of this class), Kichwa Jones, Aaron Feels and blocking tight end Zee Rechs, who will keep the lane open for running backs.
And our Defense is anchored by strong front seven-starring top picks in Stanislaw Konievpolski and Deshund Jones, and other fierce players like James Cho, Big Edd, Haha Mango- Panda, and Danielle Hunter- who, as a group, will cause havoc upon opposing linemen and quarterbacks with blazing speed and power they all possess. The secondary of Xaq Schiaparelli, Eric Barlow, Hamish MacAndrew and Colt Mendoza are also emerging as a great unit with their members putting up a lot of work before the season, especially motivated by analysts calling their group the weakness of the team.
Even though we are ranked low on preseason power rankings, we are going to prove those who ranked us low. We now have a good team on both sides if the ball by any standards, and we are ready to fight hard as a team. We will make our first season a season to be remembered for a long time.

Pundits do not know what Chicago is going to do this season some project the butchers to finish with the worse record in the league, while overs see the butchers as a possible dark horse Ultimus contender. There are a few new additions to talk about, let’s start off with the newest stadium in the league, the Valordome, standing over Lake Michigan, with all its glory, holding 80,000 rowdy fans. Now we look at the players, let’s start off with the newest weapon to the already lethal butchers offense, Osiris Firestorm-Fjord, a dual threat player who’s part time receiver, part time blocker help establish a need the butchers desired, an elite run game. To replace the ailing Josh Parker, the butchers snagged Jerome Davis in the second round of this draft, a young speedster who matches the rhythm and flow of this offense, like the woodwinds in a symphony orchestra. Free Agency gave Chicago some much needed defensive help, with Xerxes Ridley coming in from Austin, and Trae Bacon and Benson Harris from the Colorado Yeti and Baltimore Hawks respectively. In the draft, Perry Tucker Jr was added to create a stronger, stingy, pass rush that’ll force more turnovers. Truly an idealistic offseason in my book.
