Brotherly Love For Blackstone who he plays for generally isn't that important. He justs want to be a good DE, BUT there is one exception. He has a a deep deep love for the Tijuana luchdores. this is the most important part: He DOES want to be drafted by Tijuana. I (the user) spent many seasons there as a GM and won three Ultiminis in a row there. So, basically, I'm as much of a legacy pick as I can possibly be. I've talked about it with the team too. I'm not going to give away any draft strategy (to be honest I don't really know any), so I can't say whether or not they'll even end up drafting me. That's something that needs to be worked out between the GMs in the absolutely messy way they work those things out. So, I'm sorry if that is a disappointment for anyone. For what its worth, I actually really enjoyed the opportunity to be a part of Myrtle Beach and it seems like they have done an incredible job with the LR and the team overall. As a former GM for like 10 seasons, I can say that I'm impressed and anyone would be in good hands there.
#10 Commissioner Ok well first of all, its an absolute travesty that @ADwyer87 is stepping down. Actually no, not that he's stepping down because I know what's its like to be in too deep in this league and need a break and I can guarantee that no one has been more deserving of a break than Dwyer. What's a travesty and complete bullshit is the fact that Dwyer seems to be blaming himself for some kinds of problems in the league. That's ridiculous for its own reasons but before I get to far off base I'd say that that's the thing I would change first about this league and the next Commissioner if I could---and to be honest I don't really know how. But it sucks in too many good people and turns them against themselves with too much work and too little benefit. If there's one thing I learned its that people like Dwyer do what they are doing because they want others to experience the really cool nature of this league too. And that's it. Unfortunately though its the internet and its full of also shitty people who will whine and complain about anything even to the point of totally fucking with someone like Dwyer's mind. And it'll be that way for whoever the next commish is. But again, I don't know how to get over that. The best that I've seen is some HO's stepping down from HO after only a few seasons for mental clarity. And honestly, it seemed to do them good. Maybe we need to institute something like that. A limit on the number of jobs, and for some of them (maybe just HO), a limit on the length of time. Because this has to stop.
#12 Interview a Draftee @iseedoug interviewed me (link to his post):
Q1: Since you were picked up by the MB Bucs in S19, do you want to be drafted by them in S20? Go somewhere else? What factors into your DSFL team desires?
Good question. I actually don't want to be drafted by them. But I don't want anyone to get the wrong impression. I actually really enjoyed my time with the Myrtle Beach Bucs, but I have been a Tijuana Luchadores fan my whole life. I was a fan from before they became an incredible franchise so as much fun as it was to play for MB, its always been my dream to play for Tijuana.
Q2: Do you want to be a one and done DSFL player? or Stick around in the DSFL longer?
I haven't given it a lot of thought. I suppose it depends on how I feel like my career is going and what I want to accomplish. I'm a team player so whatever my teams need of me that's where I'm at.
Q3: Once you make it up to the big league, is there a team you want to play with? or does the team not matter?
When I make it to the big leagues I don't care so much about what team I'm playing for, I'm giving it my all. I've always been a Baltimore Hawks fan too, but that one isn't as important to me as playing for the Luchadores. And, if the Hawks want me badly enough, then they know where to find me.
Q4: what are Immanuel Blackstone's long term goals? Break records? Win championships? or just be a team player and see where it goes?
All my goals are to be the best that I can be, to play my heart out on every play. And the rest will take care of itself. It's really hard to rock to the record books as a defensive end. But you know what's not hard? Blowing people's brains with awesome plays. Thats what I'm about.
