Create an argument for your own player, or for someone else on your team, as to why they should be nominated for awards. Lay out their stats or compare them to other contenders. Make a convincing case.
While not on my team, I would argue that Vikian Marmeladov deserves the nod as MVP. The reasoning behind this is quite simple- his statistics this year are completely unrivaled as a safety. Hear me out on this, because you will be completely blown away by these stats, and shocked that they were overlooked by the league.
The first thing we must address is the elephant in the room- Marmeladov finished the season with zero interceptions, zero forced fumbles, zero fumbles recovered, and zero passes defensed. This supposed "flaw" will be addressed after some brief context to this stat- Marmeladov was an amazing shutdown safety, if such a thing can exist, allowing zero yards, and zero catches all year. Marmeladov also allowed zero rushing yards all year. Truly a dominant force on the field.
Thus, it is clear that Marmeladov's lack of these stats is actually the crux of my argument- Marmeladov was so good this season, that no team dared target him. He was an unstoppable force on the field, so much so that the opposing quarterbacks couldn't help but tremble in terror at the sight of him. The ball was thrown only where Marmeladov had no chance of making any play on it, for fear of the worst, and the ball was run only where Marmeladov could not interact with the carrier.
Now, the doubters may say things like "Marmeladov has been retired for years," or "he had zero yards allowed because he was targeted zero times," but this strikes me as the lowly drone of haters who wish to detract from the greatness of Marmeladov. Ultimately, Marmeladov had the most profound impact on the field of any player this season, so profound, that he created his own pocket dimension wherever he stood where the quarterback wouldn't even consider throwing the ball, and which runningbacks would avoid at all costs, even if it meant stepping out of bounds. He created a box on the field that nobody dared pass into.
I hope this argument persuades you of the profound importance of Marmeladov's historic numbers this season, and why he deserves the title of ISFL MVP.
