So you know about Austin Roenick where he is a professional football player. He is having success, he got drafted and he is making lots of money being part of an NSFL Team. He is having a great life right now and having fun and doing something in this life that he loves. But is that something that is memorable like being able to be a good football player or being drafted to the NSFL or even playing for the team or winning a championship? No. For Roenick, that is not the best memory for Roenick's life because football is not the number one most important part, number one is family. The thing about Roenick is that his past family are not from Canada. They are from another country where Roenick has not been so many times and that means he has not seen his family a lot of times. So the most memorable moment for Roenick is of course, seeing his family. His uncles, grandparents and cousins. It is something that was full of joy and at the same time, emotional. So it is so rare for him to see his family with his own eyes and it is something he will never ever forget.
One memory that continues to define Andrew Reese to this day is the time that he spent in the boy scouts growing up. He didn’t initially have a lot of interests in the scouts, but his parents pushed him to do it believing that it would build character. And, as part of that troupe, young Reese learned many of the traits that would shape him into adulthood. The scouts taught him the importance of working together with others to meet goals. And those lessons were carried onto the field, where Reese would come to rely on his teammates to get the job done on game day. Many Quarterbacks come to love the glory that comes with the job, as does Reese, but deep down, he appreciates the team effort from everyone around him. He knows that their dedication on the field allows him to shine and, without his teammates, he wouldn’t be as successful as he is today. From his early days as a young boy to his time now with the Kansas City Coyotes, Reese has come to respect the men that stand with him on the field. And that all calls back to his time as a boy with the scouts.

The most memorable event in Blackford Oakes' life was definitely the time that Connor Tanner decided to mass retire ~TOTALLY ACTIVE AND CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS~ of the league because that fateful decision, that fateful when when all those souls were lost forever except for the ones that weren't lost forever because really only like 3 players ended up retired was a day that would change the life of Oakes forever because the fact that he didn't retire really rankled Tanner and Tanner has decided to dedicate his life to sabotaging, undermining, and otherwise destroying the career of Oakes in revenge which is very reminiscent of the time he bamboozled, cajoled, persuaded, and otherwise coerced extremely valuable members of the league into retiring which was a pretty rude thing to do in my very humble opinion and really the life of Oakes ever since that fateful day has been defined by being constantly on guard against Tanner's Machiavellian machinations but that constant awareness and perception and the constant need to be on his eyes has made him a great football player, well an okay football, well a football player at least which is more than non football players can say I mean if there's one thing that you can say about Oakes beyond all shadow of a doubt it's that he definitely plays football.

Gus T.T. Showbiz's most memorable moment thus far came in his first professional football season. He had an impressive college career, enough to get him drafted second overall in the DSFL draft to the Kansas City Coyotes.
The Coyotes put a lot of faith in Showbiz, and he repaid that debt by leading the Kansas City squad to the Ultimini Championship game in his first season. Unfortunately, the night was memorable, but not in the way that he had hoped. The Kansas City Coyotes met the Tijuana Luchadores for the Ultimini title, with the Coyotes hosting the game off their regular season 10-4 record. The Coyotes started off strong, achieving the first 3 scores in the game to take a 17-0 lead heading into the second half. The latter part of the game was far less promising, as the Luchadores stormed back to the tune of 18 points scored to the Coyotes 3 in the second half. Finally, with the game on the line, Luchadores kicker Kyle Corbett hit a 50-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Luchadores to the Ultimus title, with a final score of 21-20. That kick sailing through the uprights still haunts Showbiz to this day.

One particularly memorable event happened on the football field, and was a transforming experience in his mindset. At the University of Texas, it was his freshman year, his first game back from injury. This was the chance to prove his mettle and that he belonged in a blue-blood program with rich tradition and on the rise once more. Though, it wasn't a play he made on the ball.
Facing Oklahoma State at home on a 3rd and 2, backed up to the Texas 18, Kolby was lined up standing alongside a defensive end, looking like a blitz even though his assignment was contain. The Cowboys went pass, trying to take advantage of having 28 yards of field and thinking end zone. The pass went up, though not too far behind, a teammate made an interception. The crowd's roaring cheers and lack of a whistle cued the players to play on, and the return began. OK State's RB was starting to catch up, a burly speedster who had a beeline on the returner. Throwing caution to the wind and in spite of his own mind telling him to let off, he charged and threw the best block he could recall in the moment. It was a little awkward, though being blocked was awkward enough for the last man to beat. His teammate was clear for takeoff, and even though his injured leg stung again, he didn't notice until the adrenaline wore off and he was back on the bench. The thrill from playing a key role in another's moment of glory was one that helped him find his foothold on his journey back on track to start at UT.

There have been a lot of memorable moments in the NSFL for Avon Blocksdale but the one that sticks out the most for sure is the S2 draft, which is the first time he was able to play for a professional team. Heading in to the draft there were 8 teams and he had heard from most of them. He hadn't heard anything from the Las Vegas Legion, but they were managed so poorly that they had no draft picks anyways. He hadn't heard from the San Jose Sabercats at all, but I guess they were un interested. He also hadn't heard from the Colorado Yeti. Coincidentally (or maybe not) those 3 times over the course of Avon's career were the least successful teams for a very long time, until new management took over in Las Vegas and moved them to New Orleans. But heading into the draft he had a decent conversation with several teams, and was curious where he was going to go. Then in the fourth round he received a phone call for the Arizona Outlaw management that they were trying to trade up to draft him. The Outlaws were going to pick him in the fourth round. But in the middle of the fourth round, Gordon Gecko surprised him and took Avon in the fourth round, in a string of offensive linemen selections. What a memory.
A memorable experience for Cordell Joshua? It has to be the first competitive game of football he played way back in his pee wee days. It seems hard to believe now but Cordell wasn't the biggest kid and had always been one of the smaller guys in his school, which meant he had doubted he'd be able to take part in the sport he loved to watch so much. One day, a friend falling ill made Cordell take the opportunity to play a game and so, he lined up as a wide receiver to play alongside his friends. It's strange to think of Cordell playing on offense now, but that's where his journey began. Anyway, with everything on the line in the last play of the game, the classic moment happened where the quarterback put a deep pass up that Cordell caught and secured the game with a touchdown. It was an amazing moment for the young man and one that really secured his status as someone who dreamed of doing nothing but playing football. A truly wounderois moment, it helped build his character and set him on the road to playing in the NSFL, and had that friend not gotten sick, who knows what might've happened with his life.

Damien Arnold absolutely despises shopping malls, and it’s all because of something that happened when he was quite young. When Damien was 9 he and his family took a trip to the local mall in Michigan, and at the time Damien was thrilled at the idea. After spending an hour or so browsing the toy store, his mother told him she was going to walk to another store, and for him to stay put. Back then kids weren’t too good to be left alone in a huge shopping mall. Damien continued to wander the toy store until he looked out across the mall’s foyer, and saw a clown handing out balloons, so he made his way toward that. When he got closer though, he could tell it wasn’t a real clown, but a cardboard cutout of a clown holding balloons. He turned around, but couldn’t see the toy store anymore. Next Damien noticed a mall security guard take notice of him, and so he started to run away, but the guard started chasing him. Meanwhile, in the clothing store next door to the cardboard clown, Damien’s mother was flipping through racks of clothes when she saw her baby boy run by, followed by a mall security guard in full pursuit. She took off running after the both of them as well. When she came around a corner she realized she had lost them, so she headed to the security office. The two guards there said they hadn’t seen Damien, and they were the only two working that day, but she didn’t recognize either. One of the guards went with her to the parking lot to try and spot Damien and whoever it was who grabbed him. They found a man closing up the back of a van, and immediately she knew it was the guy who was chasing her son. The security guard notified his partner to call 911, while Damien’s mother approached the vehicle. As the man got into the driver’s seat, she pulled the backdoor open and pulled Damien out the back. The man chased them back toward the mall, but the police arrived in time to intervene. To this day Damien is too terrified to be at the mall alone.
