Two Tier 2 Tasks
8. With awards season upon us, make up an award for your player to win for something not on the football field.
Least Newsworthy, I have tried to live through my player over the seasons, thinking of how I would truly act if I was in his shoes and playing this in real life. I would like to be the player that isn’t in all the news stories, causing drama, just living a quiet life where I am not in the news on every headline or episode of sports center. A player like Jared Allen, who just quietly lives his life, hunting, fishing and moving around from off the grid to on the grid living during his career. He was always a productive player on the field but when it came to off the field he limited his activity and newsworthiness. I could also see Doc be put up for an award like the NFL Walter Payton man of the year award for what he does off the field. I have stated several times in the past on how he gives his time and money away living on what he needs and saving some for when he retires. Doc would also be in the running for the loneliest man award, he lives alone, he goes to work and then goes home, donating time and money outside of that, he often sits at home living on his diet of Ramen and assorted snacks he takes on it would be something that he could easily accomplish, think of him like Bateman, he works alone, he lives alone, his dogs name is Alfred, he just leaves to go to work and ensure that his team is safe for another win when he is needed. I guess this is all to say that there are several awards that he could be recognized off the field, most philanthropic, loneliest and least likely to be in the news negatively
10. Write a short biography or story about your player. This could include background about how they came to the ISFL and how they’ve done so far, a story about their role in an exciting game, or anything else related to their experience in the league.
Doc stands, teeth gritted staring into the red blood of the Arizona sunset, harsh desert wind scolding his face. as he waits for the greyhound to take him to his next destination. You see Doc grew up with a washed-up hack of a father after his mother ran off with the tea cup carnie. Doc's name came from his mother's favorite drink combination, Dr. Pepper and Fireball. He started playing football to get out of the house and not have to deal with the stench of his father's poor habits and inhibitions. It wasn't until Doc was in high school and his coaches really started to help him learn that he realized he was any good at it. He led his High School team to a state championship leading the team in Swats and sacks. That was not the end for Doc, he would get recruited by several schools in the area. Unsure of himself he would stay close to home. He spent time at Tombstone University before declaring for the draft. Being drafted to the DSFL London Royals was the best thing that could have happened to him. Then, in the ISFL, not every player gets the chance to play for an amazing team, much less 2 in their career. Two offseasons later, after some time away from the game, Doc made the decision to move his career over to the Philadelphia Liberty from the New Orleans Second Line. The move was not an easy one, taking time away and with minimal playing time for the last two seasons, he felt that he had done a disservice to the team that had drafted him. He was out to start again, fresh with a new team in a new state and division. Doc had a couple of London teammates that he was able to reconnect with in Philly. This re-energized him. In his last season with the Liberty, Fireball had 91 Tackles, 7 TFLs, 9 sacks and 1 INT. Doc is prime for a great next season working on his Athleticism in the offseason, he is ready again to take on the league.
