It’s funny how covid and lockdowns can bring people together. After reading through most of the previous posts, I found it the common theme. A lot of people joined here this year due the regulations that were out there worldwide. I almost feel an outsider here as my story is different, I’ve been in sim leagues since 2012 after only playing yahoo fantasy hockey dynasty leagues before. And when opera phantom invited me here, I really looked at it like another side gig. But the whole welcoming proces, the scouting process, it was all really well done and it made me feel welcome and at home, so I decided to go full out and switch from defense to offense, to a position that wasn’t really recommended due to it’s depth. But the whole experience so far is really great, the people in the locker room are all really friendly and it feels more like a group of friends then just some teammates; and stuff like that, isn’t guaranteed or natural. I have seen enough locker rooms where you just are because of being on the team and that really don’t engage in talking or activity, so it’s really something that should be valued. Even when talking to the LR members during the DSFL draft, they told me that if I wanted to stay as an alumni (incase i was being drafted elsewhere), that I was more then welcome to. And that actually was the private, not the public room. So stuff like that, it really makes this league an enjoyable experience.
A second thing what makes the league great, is the scouting system. I am proud of how all these teams manage to talk to almost every prospect to see who they are and how they would fit into their teams. This is so important for keeping the players interested in the league as they are included from the get go. And the same happened in the ISFL draft where 13 out of the 14 teams contacted me, despite most knowing they wouldnt have place in a running back on the roster, but they like to be in contact already for future free agency perhaps, some of the best conversations were had with those that you wouldnt fit in the roster. So all in all, its been an enjoyable experience and I can’t wait to see what the future holds. I just wish the pre-draft period wasn’t so damn long as the gm’s are all way to goodie two shoes to leak the details
