Just a few days ago we saw one of the best wide receivers in the league get traded from the Orange County Otters to the New Orleans Second Line. The Second Line acquired what was seemingly the last hope of an Ultimus from the Otters, who traded away a major offensive piece as their old team turns over a new leaf and gets to a new era of Otters contention. This also gave the Second Line the best receiving group in the league, with Charlie Law, Carlito Crush, Mayran Jackson, Alexandre Leclair, and Paul DiMirio as receivers for the team. This doesn't include standout running back Darren Smallwood either, who added into the equation shows that the Second Line have by far the best offense in the league, and with a stacked defense as well they are surely favorites to win the Ultimus, which would be their second victory, as they won last year as well. The Otters are looking at a new era, one that saw the dominant age of Boss and Westfield is now looking for a new age in Showbiz, Adams, and whoever else they can find in the draft as they start working towards the future, something we haven't seen from the Otters yet in this league.

Season 8 had a very active trade deadline. Philadelphia made the bold decision to basically throw away everything one year after after winning their franchise's first Ultimus trophy. Part of this liquidation gave another team the exact piece they needed to be considered the most complete team in the NSFL. Paul DiMirio.

Paul had been the league's premier TE for several seasons, playing every snap for the Liberty. He was pretty much the face of the franchise. But when the team decided to go their separate ways with the phenomenal game changer, it made waves. New Orleans had moved a pick and some small pieces to the Liberty in exchange for the dynamic game changer. The impact would be immediate, and substantial. In his first game for the Second Line, he would get 105 yards and a TD. The Second Line would finish out the season 5-1 after starting 4-4. While they would not make the Ultimus that year, they set a precedent that they were now the team to beat in the ASFC.

The following season, with a full year of dominance from DiMirio, the Second Line had their best season ever. They finished the regular season 12-2, and hoisted their first Ultimus trophy. While it takes more than one man to be the reason a team wins, the DiMirio trade could definitely be pointed to as the final puzzle piece that got New Orleans over that proverbial hump.

Nothing really happened during the trade deadline this year, but I'll tell you what happened to Marquise Brown during the fateful deadline night. Living in Philadelphia, a golden staple of the "City of Brotherly Love" would be Sheetz, the incredible convenience store with the greatest food Marquise Brown had ever eaten up until that point. Living in San Antonio was a bunch of Mexican food and, while good, wasn't really hitting the spot for him. He's simply not a Mexican food kinda guy. What he really likes is a nice bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel toasted to perfection with a side of hash browns dipped in Dr. Pepper barbecue sauce OR ketchup. Where can our young RB find this? Well at Sheetz of course!

So, on one cool night in Philadelphia, Brown decides to head down to Sheetz for his "breakfast of champions" before going to training. He got a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel with some hash browns that he loved to dip in barbecue sauce, though some would call him nasty for doing so. However, when Brown was walking out of the store, he noticed a man riding a sick ass bike. He walked up to the man and shook his hand, asking how he was doing. He said he was doing fine, though he could really go for a nice bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel toasted to perfection with a side of hash browns dipped in Dr. Pepper barbecue sauce OR ketchup. Brown on the other hand, could go for a cool bike to ride around in. "Tell ya what," Brown responded. "I'll take your bike and eat this nice bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel toasted to perfection with a side of hash browns dipped in Dr. Pepper barbecue sauce OR ketchup, while you sit here with nothing." Then suddenly, Brown pushes the man off the bike and speeds off, laughing loudly with bacon egg and cheese breath. Now THAT'S a trade worth documenting, the homeless man gave up his bike for a meeting with the great and charitable Marquise Brown. We love our RB!
