Zack Vega walks up to the podium with a stack of papers in his hands. He is accompanied by his agent William Stockings and has nothing but a blank blue background behind him. “Thank you all for coming today. As expected, I’ll be making an announcement today. Effective at the end of the season, I will be switching to Wide Receiver, as I feel I will be in a better position to succeed there.”
Questions are spurted out by the audience of reporters wanting a soundbite out of Vega. “Mr. Vega, can you explain what led you to this decision?” Zack thinks for a half-second and starts speaking. “I was motivated by my dedication to the game of football and the love of my wife Jennifer.” The rest of the questions were along the same lines, the same answer, the same questions.
Hello. I’m Zack Vega. You might know me from a little known award called MVP and Best QB in the DSFL. So you’re probably wondering why I’m changing positions, like what’s the real reason? It’s actually pretty simple and it makes perfect sense when you think about it.
I want out of Chicago.
“Then why did you resign?” I thought I could trust Valor and Steele to be competent, the latest moves have clearly been showing otherwise.
At the beginning of my tenure in Chicago, our locker room was dead and terribly inactive. We were the worst team in the league and I had about a 5% chance to ever play QB for the team. Since then, our locker room has gotten better, more rookies are talking, more people are hyped for the team and the league, but that’s no what has driven me away from this team I once loved.
At one point in time, Valor was a good GM, he made some decent moves and had the team on the ups. It wasn’t until the last couple of seasons when he made lots of shitty moves. The whole Bex thing was fucking weird and they still couldn’t get anything out of it anyway, then they traded picks for nothing but IA guys again, and then recently they did the same thing, but that’s not what drove me away at the most.
It was the fact that they couldn’t see what they were doing was wrong, that it was a bad move. They’ve created this bubble — or an echo chamber — of players on the team that think this is a good move. They consistently denied that the moves they made were wrong and when presented with basic facts that proved them wrong they would look them dead in the eyes and deny it. It’s like arguing with a brick wall, and your GMs shouldn’t be like that, at least in my eyes.
To wrap it up simply, I want Chicago to trade me or just release me at the end of the year. I don’t want to play here anymore. I’m not having fun. I’ll be a Wide Receiver after this year out of respect for the Grey Ducks and their organization, any team who wants me, come get me, baby.

Called "...actually one of the worst people in sim leagues." by an "anonymous" reviewer.
