I feel like all of these thank you type posts for me always turn into a love fest for @ckroyal92 so here is another round of that and he can tell me I am a creep later I guess.
When I first came to the ISFL, I did not really have a huge relationship with CK though I did know of him in the PBE before and I assume he had heard about the newer user who was making headlines over there and having created in what was then the NSFL, I was a hot commodity, right? Let's go with that. Anyways, the San Jose Sabercats, who were one of the...more unfortunate teams in the history of the league needed a new QB after going through a few guys who were not very good and then grabbed a rental Akselsen before deciding to make an investment in the position. CK took the chance on me as the first QB off the board in my draft class when Philly decided to give San Jose the choice and from there it worked out really well.
San Jose did not have a co-GM at the time so I stepped up and CK gave me my first chance at GMing in the ISFL and I would say it went really well. We were able to build a solid relationship that carries on to this day and became friends. We won a championship together with San Jose, something that nobody thought was ever possible but it happened.
Not only that, but even when I was unsure of my next player, he took a chance at 2nd overall and drafted me again with Deondre Thomas Fox after I said I would be willing to play the WR position. While I was not the greatest with DTF, I still was grinding to be the best I could be and San Jose got to the point where we won back to back titles again. While I was not Co-GM anymore, it was still awesome to see and be a part of that.
I will always say that CK needs me to win in the ISFL so maybe next player buddy as I have been on the Sabercats for all 3 of their NSFL/ISFL titles. Thanks for my titles CK.
