(S39) Offseason Task

[mer]

Code:

11. Write a short biography or story about your player. This could include background about how they came to the ISFL and how they’ve done so far, a story about their role in an exciting game, or anything else related to their experience in the league.

Carissa had to reckon with a giant this past season: home ownership. She talked with multiple people on the team before taking the leap, asking what neighborhoods were good, how the drives were, just everything she could think of. Because she's never lived in a house, ever. Her family in the Netherlands had purchased the coziest apartment before having her, and she'd only lived in apartments and condos during her time in Norfolk and her years in New Orleans. She had lived with a host family for a short time, in a hectic townhouse in a city with no yard space, and she'd decided that houses weren't for her. But lately, she thinks that maybe that one house was just not for her. A teammate had been showing pictures of his family and their house with its huge yard and jungle gym in the sprawling lawn. That had kind of blown her mind, that she could extend her commute slightly and have an oasis. She didn't want a summer house or a winter cabin or anything, she wanted somewhere she could go day after day and a place she'd go on nights she wasn't traveling where she could see the stars and where there weren't sirens every hour or so.
Her teammate had given her their realtor's number and she'd gotten in touch immediately and had her dreams placed onto paper, and dissected. She wasn't going to get what she wanted, and that was a fact. But she ended up with something she was incredibly happy with. It was a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom. If she wanted to have a family, they could live there. People could come and visit and be comfortable. And some nights, she could see enough stars lying on the grass in her back that she couldn't count them on just 2 hands.

21. Written Option: If your player had a show starring them, what would the plot be?

Carissa's contacted to work on a show in the offseason and she readily agrees, bored out of her mind with nothing to do but training. She reads the script and loves it. She's a beefed up side character on an otherwise somewhat boring and predictable romantic comedy. She has lines like, "I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. But. Wait. I think I could toss him for the length of a football field." They're stilted and silly and she's obviously one of the many comedic side characters who just has 1 personality trait and whose time will be cut to 10 minutes over 10 episodes, but it's fun and it's something to do. The prep work takes longer than the filming, and she checks the bare minimum of social media to see what the reception is like, and is thrilled to see some new football fans who enjoyed her performance and are going to check out some games.
