14. Expansion Expansion Expansion! Tell us why you think the league should expand / not expand or include any ideas (in words) for team branding ideas you have or team locations.
My hunch (without a ton of additional information leading to this conclusion) is that expansion is not needed at the current time. I know that recruitment numbers in the SHL have slowed down pretty significantly, probably due to a combination of less overall free time in the population and having extensively milked (hehe) the typical recruiting forums (i.e., reddit) - each recruiting class is certainly smaller than the average recruiting class from, say, two years ago - so my guess is that the same is happening here. If, as i expect, recruiting numbers aren't super high right now, there's probably no need to add teams and thin out the talent further. circular argument here, but the fact we haven't expanded in a while tells me it's probably not needed and the numbers are just fine as is. That said, expansion is really fun and bringing new teams into the fold is pretty exciting and having new teams and logos in the mix always keeps shit fresh. In the spirit of freshness, I'll propose an idea for an expansion team just for fun. How about lets put a team in Valencia, Spain and call it the Valencia Orange (even though the actual Valencia Orange isn't from valencia spain it's from like california or something) but it's a catchy enough name and their logo will be orange and they will have all orange stuff. If that's a bit too silly for an expansion idea, I'll pick a domestic option and suggest the Nashville Dynamo. I've always liked the name Dynamo for a team ever since I encountered it as an option back in Madden 0...07? 04? one of those. It's a very vague name that doesn't actually refer to anything concrete and it's a rare word but still sounds like it works as a team name. Nashville is a cool enough city without much representation across the sim leagues so I like that option despite not having any connections to the city.

17. Going to Disney World! Who was the Ultimus or Ultimini Game MVP? Give us a rundown of their celebratory trip to Disney World.
Unfortunately my Arizona Outlaws lost in the Ultimus so the MVP heading to Disney won't be from our team but rather our vanquishers the cinnamon toast crash aka cape town crash. The most deserving MVP of the game would I guess have to be QB Creg Jerrith. No one really stood out statistically, as it was a defensive contest without too many big plays or turnovers. Honestly I'd give it as a team award to the entire Crash defense but I guess it doesn't work like that. Jerrith's 2 picks didn't keep the Crash from winning and he still put up nearly 300 yards and had 2 TDs. Jerrith had a blast at Disney World and ate a shitload of cotton candy. When asked what they were excited for in the Disney celebration, Jerrrith replied "I love skittles I'm gonna eat a shitload of that stuff and I'm a pro athlete who just won MVP in the Ultimus so I'm allowed to do it - kids you can't eat a shitload of skittles if your parents don't let you until you reach this pinnacle achievement some day and then you can do it yourself." and then he got a sponsorship from skittles.
