"Talk about what inspired your player's name and any meaning behind it".
The nickname "Moose" came about when I was in high school. I believe the initial intention was that I reminded some kids in the school band of an Archie character by the same name who I bear a resemblance to (tall and blonde, multisport athlete back then). I think that it also works with my quiet, protective, and sometimes goofy personality - traits I associate with moose.
As a football name, I incorporated "Moose" as a pass-rushing linebacker because I wanted to invoke images of a creature rushing you down with its ears pinned back, head down, and with otherworldly strength. I want to be a disruptor on the line of scrimmage and behind it. I want to intimidate opposing offenses with a physical presence and hard-hitting tackles. Ever see a picture of a car that hit a moose? Doesn't work out so well for the car.
Various versions of "David Moose" have been create-a-player RBs, LBs, and EDGE in Madden, each invoking the headfirst downhill rushing style of my namesake. I'm looking forward to bringing that kind of attack to the ISFL.
