10) Thinking of where I was a couple months ago (right before the start of season 27), I would have never expected to be part of an amazing team with rich history like Tijuana. It has really been a ride of high’s and low’s, but it’s been more than that. Throughout the season, I would develop friendships along the way on things I would have never expected. Tonzy was able to help establish and build on the foundation that is Tijuana. Without him, this team would not be where it is now, and every one that is part of that team feels the way I feel. As for as how our season went, it could have gone better in terms of sim success. With all the kinks and nuances of the new sim, it can really be tough to grasp what is actually needed to be super successful. The last game for the Luchadores was in the DSFL Conference Championship. With a weird bug in the sim, our season ended just like that. Our hopes were so high, that we came crashing down of the realization that it was over. Our team struggled with inconsistency on offense, especially with the passing game as we had no active WR’s. In fact, we used one of our RB’s (Drip Dad) as a main receiving option. Getting shut out by the Grey Ducks late in the season was also a blow to morale as we had hoped it would have been a much closer game and even the last game against Portland where we tried to run a meme strategy was funny to us since we were probably going to get blown out (which we did). But there were many great highlights like Juno Hu snagging a pick six to win the game against London in the middle of the season, so the team had many high and lowlights, but each one of them made the game either fun, or was not a huge factor to morale. As for how my player performed, Cade Williams could not have done any better than I hoped for. He accumulated 36 pancakes and only allowed 1 sack in his rookie year. He was able to anchor the right side of the field to where hardly anyone went through him. I believe he was a pivotal aspect of the run game which ranked 1st in the league and he also tied for second for least sacks allowed (tied for first if you only compare rookie offensive lineman). And I fully believe that the Luchadores will be even better next year, I’m sure of it. Tijuana will soon bring the 9th Ultimini home, and I don't doubt if it was the next season.

11) So kind of what I was saying earlier, a couple months of ago I was overwhelmed with what I had to do at first. If I wanted to succeed as a max player, I had to make sure I completed all of my trainings, point tasks, and even activity checks. It was a lot at first, and I had to take my time to think of the things I really needed to do. But my passion was there, I love the sport of football more than anything. With that in mind, I wanted to learn all the different aspects of the game so I could be successful. I believe I mentioned how GuitarMaster116 was pivotal to me getting familiar with the league. He was really patient with me and answered any question I had regarding the game. Who knew that he would later draft me for Tijuana? And with that, I was introduced to one of the greatest teams in DSFL history. The locker room presence in that team was/is astounding. As I brought up earlier, I would make great friendships along the way and actually be elected as captain for my draft class, which was even cooler for me. I consider myself an introvert, and I’m honestly surprised by how active I am on the locker room Discord. Those are real friends to me, and I can’t wait to see how it progresses in the future. But for me though, that wasn’t enough as of that moment. I wanted more. So I actually would look in the Job Applications tab because I felt that I wanted this game to be even better and I wanted to share that excitement and basically appreciation for the game by helping out in any way I can. And although I was not accepted for a couple jobs, I was accepted for one that will start next season, and I can not wait to be part of it. I’ve also been doing wiki work for the site as I actually enjoy doing that (for money of course) instead of media that I kind of have to come up with. And by doing that, I actually get to research and see different parts of history within the league, good and bad, but still history. As a new player, it’s basically an encyclopedia that I’m helping build by doing that, and it’s just been lots of fun. I think the biggest thing that could be improved is the wiki for the site. There’s just so much information that still needs to be updated, and with me doing work for it, I feel accomplished in helping preserve the league’s history for now and for the future.
