Task 4)
I would like to talk about the DSFL expansion team and their first appearance in the playoffs and even in the ultimini - the London Royals! The London Royals had a pretty close conference the whole season and in the end they did pull through to the playoffs. I want to talk about the game that brought the London Royals into the playoffs.
A bit more than halfway through the season the London Royals had a Co-GM switch and Highhaschdi stepped up to the task.
The final standings of the NFC North were
1. Minnesota Grey Ducks 8W - 6L
2. London Royals 6W - 8L
3. Portland Pythons 5W - 9L
4. Kansas City Coyotes 5W - 9L
all in all a super close finish. There are many factors that came together for the London Royals to make the playoffs. The Portland Pythonst lost their last two games (against the Dallas Birddogs and the Minnesota Grey Ducks) keeping them at 5-9. The Kansas City Coyotes winning only one of their two last games (They won against the Tijuana Luchadores and lost against the Dallas Birddogs) bringing them up to only 5-9.
And one of the most important things - the London Royals won against the Dallas Birddogs in Week 13 11-8. It was an intense low score game.
In that game we saw 0 points in the first quarter played.
9 points in the second quarter played
6 points for the Dallas Birddogs with a 2 yd run by Kichwa Jones and a missed kick by Zoe Watts.
3 points for the London Royals with a 49 yd field goal by Datsum PhastBawl, the new K/P for the London Royals.
again - 0 points in the 3rd quarter played
and 10 points in the 4th quarter played.
2 points for the Dallas Birddogs with a safety tackle against Colby Jack by Yuuto Kira Cloudera
8 points for the London Royals with a 25 yd pass touchdown to Nick Kaepercolin and a successful 2 point conversion.
this brings us to the final score of
Dallas Birddogs 8 - 11 London Royals.
This win brought the London Royals to a standing of 6W - 8L and secured their second place.
All in all it was a pretty tough fight for every team in the NFC North and every team had a pretty good chance to make the playoffs. As i said earlier, many factors played a key role in securing that playoff spot for the London Royals but talking about every single one of them would be way too much for this task.
Task 7)
I have started as a waiver pick in the middle of S21. With some banter on twitter between me and Heath Evans I got the attention of some teams - in the end the Myrtle Beach Buccanneers picked me of that waiver list and I've played right away, right next to Heath Evans who also played for the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers. As I trained more and gained more TPE my stats also got better. We had a solid S21 as the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers and even won the ultimini. In the end I played 12 games in S21 and got 20 receptions and made 122 yards. I also scored a touchdown - which felt super awesome! - and I made 15 pancakes. Those stats are not the best but I think as someone who joined in the middle of S21 it's okay though and I am pretty satisfied with my work in S21.
Then it was time for the draft. To this day even, I have completed every single TPE task available since I joined the league. So I gained pretty quickly and rose in the rankings. I thought I would be picked in round 6-7 and to my surprise the Sarasota Sailfish selected me in round 5 and made me overall pick number 50 in the draft - super happy with that! At the time of the draft I had 172 TPE and after the talk with Frostbite, the GM of the Sarasota Sailfish - Ex GM of the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers - we came to a pretty fast aggreement on a contract which included sending me down for one more season before I come up in the NSFL and replace Johnny Blaze, the current Tight End for the Sarasota Sailfish.
In S22 I had way better stats. I played 14 games in S22 and got 47 receptions and made 441 yards. I scored 3 touchdowns and made 19 pancakes. I also made 2 rushing attempts with a total of 1 yard - MVP material right here!.
So in the end I only played 2 more games compared to S21 but I've got 27 more receptions and made 319 more yards. Scored 2 more touchdowns and made 4 more pancakes. I think thats a pretty solid development and I am more than satisfied with my personal stats.
Sadly, even though the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers were one of the strongest DSFL Teams, we didn't made the playoffs this season. And all I can say about that is - heck the sim.
