Trade deadline! That means another update on Adrian St. Christmas. I haven't given an update on my career in the last couple of season because I was under contract with the Orange County Otters for a couple of seasons. But . . . after this season I will be a free agent again!
In case you're not aware of the absolutely game-changing, generation-defining approach to sim leagues that I've taken with Adrian St. Christmas, you can read about it in my previous updates, here, here, here, here, and here. And you can read about it all in-character on my wiki page! Essentially, Adrian St. Christmas is the ultimate bridge quarterback, journeyman veteran, and HO liaison all rolled into one. He's done a pretty good job I think. So far he's played for the Honolulu Hahalua, the Yellowknife Wraiths, the Chicago Butchers, and now the Orange County Otters. His resume includes a perfect (winless) season, two conference championship appearances, and an Ultimus ring! Still in search of awards to fill out the cabinet though . . .
Attention GM's (and anyone else interested for some reason) who are out of the loop: here's how it works. Adrian St. Christmas is a maxed out QB (will be over 1400 tpe at the start of next season) who has just one requirement: he wants to go to a team that won't have a need for him in 1 to 2 seasons. That's it. With Adrian's help you're free to keep your team's championship window open for just a bit longer while your up and coming stud QB spends a final season honing their skills in the DSFL--just know that you're only signing on for a short term deal and you're golden. What's more, you're free to trade Adrian to another team or even ask him to archetype switch if you think that'll help!
What happens if there are multiple teams that want Adrian on their roster for next season? Good question. Essentially, he'll go to the team that offers him the most money. And if its a tie or basically the same, then I'll probably give deference to a team that I haven't played for before. Apart from that, who knows tbh.
It's been a fun two seasons in Orange County. I'm incredibly grateful to have occupied the same lockers as other legendary Orange County quarterbacks like Mike Boss and Franklin Armstrong. Although we didn't have much success on the field the last couple of seasons, I think Adrian St. Christmas performed admirably, if not shockingly average. Really nothing to write home about in any of the statistical categories except for one: Adrian St. Christmas actually punched one into the endzone with his legs last season. That's pretty rare (I think) for a non-mobile quarterback. So that's neat! Nice little bump if you were (un)fortunate enough to have started him in fantasy last season.
Anyway, I think that's about all! So what's the plan? I want all teams that are interested in Adrian St. Christmas playing for their team in the NEXT TWO SEASONS to reach out to me within the next week with your pitches. I know that's a little tighter than I've done in past season but its ok because I was feeling lazy this week and didn't get around to posting. My intent is to make a final decision within the week after that so that the teams know what their plan is at QB going into the Ultimus and the draft immediately afterwards. As always, if you have any feedback on my process or my career let me know!
Happy planning!
A note to the grader: As usual, I never know when there is a media bonus or whatever. So if there is a media bonus please read this media in whatever light is most likely to show its very intentionally-met qualifications. In fact, I think I saw that there is a double media bonus going on right now, which is great! And I didn't see any particular content requirement which is even better! But in case there is for fun multipliers and whatever, then please read with a discerning eye.
