Task 16 - 2.5 TPE
Rex Crenshaw doesn’t know how to lose a football game. He went to college at Boise State University which had an outstanding football team. While he was there, the team was inside the top 25 teams in the country and pushed for a spot in the college football playoffs. As a non-power five school, it was impressive to just be in the conversation. But enough about the team, Crenshaw himself adds the next level to any team. As a possession tight end, he is a surefire target for any quarterback to hit incase of emergencies. His speed isn’t great but his hands are his greatest feature. This allows him to be a phenomenal blocker when the team needs additional protection for the pocket. While he is an outstanding prospect, his family has never been well off which has affected his performance in the locker room with training and equipment. But his dedication to his craft is unmatched and will be working hard to increase his ability. Beyond skills on the field, Crenshaw brings some excitement to a locker room. He is a big fan of connecting with others the managers of a team and working with them to hone his skills better. Crenshaw can’t wait to get back on the field.
Task 26 - 2.5 TPE
When I created Rex Crenshaw I wanted to create a position that could count stats but wouldn’t require 100% participation in the league. I am very invested in the PBE and didn’t want to fully commit to two leagues. I knew that people get very excited about defense, especially around Cornerbacks, Safeties, and Linebackers. I also figured that position players would be at a premium with Quarterbacks, Running backs, and Wide Receivers requiring a larger amount of TPE output. Offensive Linemen doesn’t have any counting stats which I think would deter my interest in the league. This left me with the choices of Kickers, Tight Ends, or Defensive Linemen. I chose Tight End because they get great counting stats like a receiver but are beneficial to a team like a lineman. If I didn’t choose Tight End, I think my next choice would have been a kicker in the league. I have always been fascinated kickers ever since I followed the bad Seahawks prior to the Russell Wilson era. The team wasn’t great but had a great kicker and punter which was the most exciting thing to watch in the league. The reason I ultimately decided against it was the lack of spots available to be a starting kicker in the ISFL.
Task 27 - 2.5 TPE
To make new rules to a sport that already has a tremendously complex rule book is a difficult choice. Most of the time when you hear new rules, they are small changes like changing the play clock or adding a rule that allows additional challenges. But I would like to suggest a rule that is much bigger. My rule would be to implement double forward passes. So imagine on the right side of the line you have a single wide receiver. On the left side, you have a second quarterback with good hands offset with a tight end. The snap occurs and the Tight End and the second Quarterback push 10 yards downfield while the receiver on the opposite side sprints towards the end zone. The pass heads for quarterback number two 15 yards with the blocker in front of him. Now he catches the ball and throws it down field to the end zone. This is just one example of an outcome from allowing a second forward pass. The trickery that is allowed in football has to be implemented to keep competition fresh and new ideas are able to hit the league. And where is a better place to implement it other than right here in the ISFL.
