Quote:16. This task is exclusive to recreate/non-recreate rookies of the S36 class and later. The season is over and the draft is coming up. What do you bring to a team, and why should a team choose to take a chance on you next season? (Written Task)
Matthew Mara is a speedy wide receiver who already has his first DSFL touchdown when he scored one for the London Royals who picked him up off of waivers.
I'm a "non-recreate" rookie and brand new to the league. Who doesn't like a shiny new toy? I could be anything. I should be a top 10 earner in TPE who doesn't need to be reminded to do his Activity Checks and PT's. I usually do all that stuff at the beginning of the week. I also create a fair amount of signatures and enjoy writing the occasional article so earning money also shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty easy going in the locker room although I am not going to be the most active.
I'm new to the league so I am willing to listen to build advice and do whatever helps the team where I can. I hope to join a fun team who cares about my player as much as he cares about the team.

Quote:25. Imagine your current position was not available to be picked when you created your player. What other position would you have picked, and why? (Written Task)
If wide receiver wasn't available then my next choice would likely be on the defensive side of the ball. Maybe the mirror position to wide receiver and go with corner back. See if I can use my speed to shut down the opposing teams best receivers. I think it would be where I would best maximize my abilities. The strong and free safety positions would work well too, especially when I get the opportunity to use my speed to blitz the quarterback.
Line-backer would also be fun but I'd have to put on some weight. I would likely be primarily a speed rusher who specializes in turning the corners quickly and getting pressure on the opposing quarterback. So what position is that? RE maybe?
Halfback would also be a fun experience. I think I could use my speed and agility to really help a team excel. I feel like it would be a more natural choice than something like tight end who do a lot more blocking in general.
Honestly it doesn't matter. Just put me in coach!

Quote:26. Football is a game that has been going on for a while, loved by fans all over. But what if you were able to make some rule changes? Talk us through your new version of football, and what would be different and why? (Written Task)
First thing I would do is try and improve the scoring since people love offense. To achieve this I would double all points. So touchdowns would equal 12 points, field goals 6, point after would have to be renamed to "points after" because there would be 2 for that now. Of course the two-point conversion would become the four-point conversion. More offense. Problem one solved.
Second thing I would change is the "coin toss" to decide the field and possession. The whole ordeal is kind of strange and not really all that exciting on television. So instead, each team will be required to send out a representative. The opposing players will then perform paper/rock/scissors to determine the winner. Problem two solved.
Lastly I would change the field markings to go from 0 to 100 rather than these 50/50 lines. I don't do maths so trying to figure out the distance a punt goes between my 24 yard line and where it ends up in the opponents 26 yard line is too much to handle. I don't need that confusion. "The punt was kicked from the 26 yard line and landed at the 76 yard line". Well that seems like it is a 50 yard punt. Much much easier. Yet another problem solved.
Feel free to use any of these in the league.
