RE #38 was on one of those survivor reality shows. Much to the disappointment of the teams nutritionists. But it was one of those extreme ones. Where they drop you in the middle of Alaska, totally naked, with nothing. RE #38 tapped out pretty quick. In fact he was the fast contestant to tap out in the shows history. Most of the time people who are on that show are ex-special ops or survivalist trainers. Then to get more popular, the show decided to invite an ISFL player. Well the show got more popular, for an episode. You see, RE #38 lasted approximately 30 minutes, he just huddled there and complained about the cold and then quit. He basically became a quitter meme all over social media instantly. Went on morning talk shows and talked about quitting. How its healthy for you and stuff. The team really isn't happy with the negative publicity surrounding the whole thing. They've banned RE #38 from doing anymore shows.

During the offseason, Austin Morley had the amazing opportunity to play in one of his favorite game shows of all time: Jeopardy!. Many people are not aware of this passion, but Morley has been a Jeopardy! fan for as long as he can remember. This affinity to the game and trivia in general stems from his father's love for it. Some of Austin's most cherished memories are growing up watching Jeopardy! with his dad through the years. When he was younger, he would sit in awe as his dad would rattle off one correct response after another. His dad was the smartest person he ever knew! His dad even had the chance to be on Jeopardy! until an illness kept him from following through. As Austin grew older, he began being able to keep pace with ol' dad and even challenging his claim for family Jeopardy! champion. Austin did his father proud and won $24,069 on the show and donated it all to his favorite charity. (166 words for actual writing)
This past offseason, Carter Goad appeared as a contestant on "Minute to Win It". Having always wanted to show off his skills on seemingly mundane tasks, Goad was enthusiastic when asked to join a special edition and compete with his family.
The first event was called "Yummy Cookie Face". Being a food challenge, this was right up Goad's alley. Placing a cookie in the middle of his forehead, the challenge of moving the cookie to his mouth without the use of his hands was a cakewalk. Next up, was "Tower Stack". Partnering with his mother, Goad was able to deftly begin the stack of 36 cups but right as they were nearing the end of the tower, he knocked over the tower, leading to his team's first strike. The next event was "Cereal Puzzles", which Goad sat out. His family members were unable to complete all the puzzles in time and thus the team earned their second strike. The last event of the night was "Unstack It". In this sort of Jenga game, Goad and his family members were to take away blocks from a giant Jenga game before time ran out. In the frenzy, the tower fell over halfway through the competition and the Goads' were unable to beat their opponents. Thus strike three ended their team's night early.

Mike Gesicki has never been a big gameshow fan but with one exception: Jeopardy has been a favorite of Gesicki since watching it as a child, eating dinner with and trying to answer the questions before the contestants got it. So when Gesicki was invited to participate in an ISFL Jeopardy tournament he was super excited. Gesicki had retained pretty good grades throughout college and was a fun fact lover and geography nerd. He flew out to the show after spending a couple weeks practicing and studying what he could. He was pretty excited for the show and it was really cool to be on the set. Then the game started and Gesicki was ready to go. He wasn't doing great until an all-in daily double brought him near victory. But final jeopardy involved one of Gesicki's main weaknesses, Shakespeare and literature. Gesicki got it wrong and lost but was still very happy with his performance.
SAVE THE WIKI!
Luigi Numberone was asked to go on Jeopardy. It...did not go very well for him. He actually ended up losing 800 dollars on the day, despite holding up on The Dreaded Opera Category by just picking off the easy question and not trying on any of the harder ones. Particularly, he struggled mightily with Before and After and the US History categories, and missed out on one question via forgetting to phrase his answer in the form of a question. According to the paparazzi, after the game show ended, Numberone broke down sobbing, disappointed over his performance in the famous trivia game.
Luigi was available for comments after the game show, confirmed that he broke down in tears, and proclaimed that crying is a sign of emotion and humanity, not something to be shied away from, condemned, or looked down upon. He also commented that paparazzis in general, and secret photos of private life in specific, should not exist.

s43 Baron Nomination for Best Author, and Best New Author. Quite possibly, the greatest compliment I have received from anybody. I am no author I draw because I can not write. Most of you can not read.
When Terry Keller was on his Japan trip as a DSFL prospect, he was approached by a group of people asking him to sign up for a Japanese game show. Keller, strangely intrigued by this offer, accepted it clearly and signed his signature on the papers. He didn't know what the game show was going to be, but he knew how crazy they can get in Japan, and instantly wanted to participate in it.
He got dressed backstage with other semi-famous participants with him, some not from Japan like him, and waited for his turn. The game show was a "Hole in a wall" challenge, where you have to fit your body in oddly sized shapes in the approaching wall. Keller was called up, introduced himself as a graduating football player from Washington State, and got set up on the platform. He thought this was going to be too easy for him, an athlete, and he'd win the whole thing and take the prize home as a souvenir. The first wall that came up was a small, hole in the middle that can maybe barely fit his body. He tried his best, but got stuck midway in the hole and fell out onto the water, eliminating him on the first wall. In the postgame interview, he said he got cheated, but he still enjoyed the experience and crossed off an item off his things to do in life. lol |
