16. My player, Slam Dunkinson, was drafted to BBB during the second round of the last DSFL draft. I created as a DE not really knowing how the sim treated DEs. BBB was in need of a LB so they asked me to switch and after I learned the stats that LBs got, I was more than happy to switch. Being the only LB on BBB and given the ROLB spot, Slam went crazy being tied with the league lead for tackles. They also put up respectable numbers for sacks and TFLs. My player filled the stat sheet almost every week so I enjoyed watching him play and would say most weeks were a highlight seeing Slam help limit opposing offenses. The lowest point was when we played KCC and my player had a DSFL bet for the game of O/U 7 tackles. Since Slam was averaging 8 tackles per game prior to this, I think most people, myself included, slammed the over thinking it was a lock. Turns out KCC wanted to steal money away from everyone else and ran the ball the other way away from Slam all game leading to a stat line of 2 tackles. So my player made himself look silly and lost everyone their casino money leading to a terrible week. Missing out on playoffs in the last week was also a brutal way to go about it. BBB was super close to making it and the sim just didn't go our way the final week so we ended up missing out. Going into next season, we've lost majority of our players to call ups so our offense is going to be a totally different look. We need a new QB and RBs to replace our veteran players going up. Not to mention WRs since we pretty much only had IAs there last season which forced us to run the ball all the time.
14. I think the league should expand because it'd allow more players to play in the ISFL at once leading to a more diverse landscape. For example, more teams may have to play true rookies straight out of the draft as they need to fill holes therefore teams may have lower TPE players at certain positions which forces them to draft/build a team differently. The RoTY award would have more meaning as well and fair. I assume any player who gets called up is considered a rookie whether they were drafted 4 seasons ago or just recently. Therefore, there may be a TPE disparity between rookies in the league so currently higher TPE rookies who may have spent a couple years in the DSFL just have a higher chance to win. With an expansion, more real rookies may be asked to play in the ISFL leading to a better opportunity for newer players to win RoTY awards. The QB position would be more viable as there would be more opportunities for a QB to play on a team thus players may be more open to creating as one. I love the concept of international teams in the league so would love to see more of those. Russia, China, Middle East, Egypt are some areas that we don't have any representation in but would be cool to see more of. Osaka as the first Asian international team was brilliant and as shown, you can get pretty creative with the mascots with international teams so I think more of those would just lead to better team designs. For example, China could have a dragons mascot and Egypt could be mummies or sphinx etc. I also think more international teams would increase the number of people whose hometowns' are international thus creating a better WBC landscape. The idea of having a ISFL/DSFL team in a certain region could certainly spark more people to create a player from that region to fit into a player's backstory.
