18. This task is exclusive to recreate/non-recreate rookies of the S43 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?
As a brand new rookie to this league who's waiting to be drafted, I plan to excel against the competition and be one of the top TPE earners in my draft class. I'm already getting ahead of many of the other rookies, and plan to keep it that way by being consistent with engagement from point tasks, media, activity checks, and constantly updating my player. I'm also open to switching positions to help the team however I can. I have already applied to a few jobs out of the gate and expect to have one as soon as possible, not only to show my dedication to being the best but also to help the league function. I bring an interesting knowledgeable character to any team's locker room and definitely have enjoyed the conversations I've had in a few of the servers. If you are looking for a max earner who takes initiative and someone who wants to win as many championships/awards as possible in both the DSFL and ISFL (along with making a hefty amount of cash to spend), then you should take a chance on me. I believe once the season is done I'll easily be top 3 in TPE/stats from this large rookie class and hopefully have been on a championship-winning team!
26. if your player wasn't a professional in the ISFL/DSFL, what would they be doing instead?
Orange Julius was a creation made by his father Orenthal James Julius, an Orange Julius worker, who named him due to his love of his favorite drink at the place he worked at. If for some reason Orange Julius was unable to play in the big leagues, he would have finished his degree at Syracuse University and gone to get an MBA from Harvard in Food/Beverage Hospitality. Afterward, he would end up opening as many Orange Julius stores as possible, expanding into other regions including internationally as is his dream after he retires in the first place. Orange Julius was meant to play football as an ode to his dad after his tragic death during his Junior year season. If he was unable to continue I believe Orange would make his mark on the business world, along with opening a foundation in his dad's honor called "The OJ Foundation" which splits its funds between two groups, people who get scurvy due to a lack of Vitamin C, and Orange Julius workers who want to expand their skills or attend college for the first time.
27. Imagine your current position was not available to be picked when you created your player. What other position would you have picked, and why?
I would have switched to the quarterback as it was my player's initial dream. However, after reading the disclaimer about QB progression, I decided to go with WR. If WR was not available I would end up playing QB and proving them all wrong. Orange Julius is 6'5" tall and can see over every offensive lineman. He would have been a field general, directing players to open gaps in coverage and making plays through audibles at the line of scrimmage. He is also 235 lbs, and just like many large QBs, it would be harder to take him down. Also, he would have prioritized speed and agility workouts so he could escape from any defensive lineman or defensive ends who make it through the line and still manage to make a play. I also had considered moving to safety as Orange Julius is so tall that he could stop almost any red zone play or be waiting back to protect any deep balls from being completed.
29. What team do you think has the best branding in the league? Why?
In my opinion, for the ISFL, I really like the branding of the Austin Copperheads. I'm slightly biased as I used to live in Austin and if we ever had an expansion team, the Copperheads would be a great name. The snake itself is very detailed and the color scheme of almost a turquoise blue and brown I think is unique and underutilized by teams across sim leagues and in real life. Plus the star in the background which I assume is for Texas, the Lone Star State, makes total sense. Also, the silver colors for the name are balanced quite well with the rest of the graphic. The snake strikes fear into the hearts of its enemies, and you better hope it doesn't bite you, or you'll be left wounded on the field as well as wounded on the scoreboard. Overall, while there are many different brandings I like in the league including those in the DSFL (which I refuse to talk about so as to not hurt my draft stock), the Copperheads are the current winner for me.
