FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY

Huge thanks for this @BladeMaiden and @Banackock for giving me an opportunity here in WJC. It is truly a great honour and I shall do everything to prove I was a great choice for this spot! 

assistant commissioner*

I'm new to the league as of 4 weeks ago, but really enjoying it so far and have been looking for more ways to get involved. I think this would be a great opportunity to get a feel for the management side of things and see how some of the behind the scenes duties are carried out. On that note, I'd like to be considered for "assistant to the commissioner!" (Little Dwight Schrute reference for you office fans!)

@eaglesfan036 Quite the loophole you're exploiting! If you're willing to sit out for half a year for 10 TPE all the more power to you. 

Im still not sure what the point is/was.

Seems pretty petty when you're not even capping on a weekly basis, but that just me. Plenty of TPE left on the table to be upset about 6/10 TPE.
 
I'm newer to the league, but I think you're missing the point of the bonus in the first place, it seems like a bonus to encourage retention of new players who are likely to lose interest within the first couple of weeks before they even break 100. 
 
But like @Beketov said, the 10 TPE is pretty meaningless in the whole scope of things, when you're comparing how new inexperienced members use the 10 TPE opposed to how a veteran league member utilizes their points. Hang tough though, 10 juicy TPE waiting at the end of this 3 to 4 season holdout 

So, I was right?

My players first graphic
 

While conducting post-game interviews after a recent win over Saskatoon, the Philadelphia Beat Report noticed a VHLM schedule hanging in the Reaper locker room. This scheduled has Game 39 circled. A home game at The Burns Crematorium Centre and their first game against their co-expansion team, the Houston Bulls.
 
The Bulls and Reapers became immediate rivals after a heated exchange of words between the team’s GMs during the offseason. The language used during that exchange is not fit to be reprinted in this space. Lingering animosity from that day has driven anticipation of this game to a fever pitch.
 
The PBR asked some Reapers about the upcoming game. GM Kathryn Blade said, "It is no secret that me and my boys want to make Houston feel the pain of being beaten by the Reapers. In true Reaper fashion we are going to use our blades to cut down the competition…our goal is total Reaper domination"
 
Reaper LW, Hans Gruber shared his thoughts, “Nothing better than a good old fashioned rivalry, especially when it’s two expansion teams. We don’t like them and they don’t like us. We’ll leave it all on the ice, prove that we’re the better team and get the two points, that’s the Gruber Guarantee”
 
“You know, I don’t really pay attention to the things management says to each other. I don’t really know what was said. All I know is that Blade has been there for us, took a chance on some of us, and showed that she really cares about us. It’s that respect for our GM that is going to motivate us against Houston. If it just so happens we record our first fatality at the Crematorium, so be it,” said defenseman Charlie Paddywagon.
 
Reaper RW John Frostbeard put it simplest of all, “I don’t have much to say other than they [Houston] suck.”
 
We expect an exciting, hard-fought game and will be watching along with all the fans of the VHL and VHLM.

I am not sure if you have any questions or need any further information please login to your new home and native American Indian confirmed.

Debatable

It is finnaly here, the start of the VHML season went underway last week. Aleksander Rodriguez on the Ottawa Lynx is not having a bad season for a first timer but it isn’t what he expected. 5 points in 8 games isn’t bad but Rodriguez needs to face reality, you can’t only pass in Hockey. He is a -6 on the season so far and he’s defense is somewhat affecting the team a little bit, but with the recent new lines he may turn it around. Rodriguez now knows how hard this league is and that defense is indeed a big factor in Hockey. The Ottawa Lynx are last in the league right now, but Rodriguez still has fire in his eyes. He ain’t giving up and will work even more harder now to help the team win no matter and prove other people wrong.
 
See you next time on Aleksander Rodriguez Career Journal!

@Spade18 Mars' first goal (finally lmao) and it is a fucking GWG, not too bad. Now start scoring more pls thanks

Review:
Nice effects on the text there, and the addition of the puck makes the picture.
It's easy to see this is a 'shattered glass' photo, and I like the idea in general as well.
Solid work, especially first time with GIMP.

REVIEW: A nice introduction to Bert's personal past history. Don't know why, but Irish Twins always make me chuckle. It's not often that you hear about a player who gave up the game for multiple years go on to make a professional league, but Bert is proving everyone wrong. Hopefully he is able to use the loss of his brother and losing the state championship as motivation to become the best player he can be.

Bert Meyers
Doubles Week 3/10/19
Doubles Week
5 Uncapped TPE 3/3/19
1m @Josh.

Ro“Bert” Meyers, 1st son of Michael & Elizabeth Meyers was born on February 29th, that’s right leap day, in the great state of Wisconsin. He is the eldest of five children which include Ian, Gavin, Skadi, & Phineas. Having their first child at the age of 23 & 24, Mike & Liz were the kind of parents that had a work hard play hard mentality and we’re outstanding role models in the boys lives. This sort of discipline and determination that his parents displayed is a large factor into why Bert Meyers has had so much athletic success in his early years. With Bert being a few weeks into his 1st season as a VHLM Left Winger for the Minnesota Storm and having a sizable contract to his name and a promising hockey career ahead of him, life hasn’t always been sunshine and rainbows for this young winger. 
 

 
 
 
The Early Years
As soon as Bert could walk, he was on the move, always active in some way or another, him and the rest of the Meyers gang. By the time Bert was 6, there were already 4 boys in the family, two sets of Irish twins (9ish months apart for those unfamiliar with the term). Bert 6yo. Ian 5yo., and Gavin 3yo. Skadi 2yo. And Phineas who came a little while further down the road. As you can imagine this created quite the competitive atmosphere in the Meyers’ household. It was a constant competition for everything between these boys, food and snacks, shotgun on the way to school and practices, toys, parent’s attention and just about everything else under the sun. Despite this the Meyers brothers paired off you could say, and Bert and Ian really created quite the brotherly bond. Ian and Bert would do everything together and were inseparable since as long as anyone can remember.
With how Bert & Ian’s birthday’s fell they wound up in the same grade throughout school. As soon as they entered kindergarten these two were a force to be reckoned with at recess out on the soccer field. They really took a liking to soccer and played as much as they could through their grade school years. When 8th grade rolled around Bert and Ian were made co-captains of their grade soccer team. They could work together and their level of teamwork was really something to see even at a young age. Bert was the one with great vision and a knack for passing while Ian loved being in the spotlight and scoring the goals, he could finish with the best of ‘em.
 
High School
After Bert and Ian’s 8th grade graduation the family moved from a small town in southeastern Wisconsin to a much larger town just north of Milwaukee, in the Arrowhead school district. When the dynamic duo started high school there was an opportunity made available to them in the sports world that was never an option before for the boys in the small town they had grown up in. The high school had a sports facility with an ice rink, and they fielded a hockey team. Since the school’s soccer program wasn’t very successful, the boys decided to switch gears and give the great sport of hockey a try.
 It took the two of them a little while to gather their bearings on the ice since neither of them had ever laced up a pair of ice skates before, but by the end of their freshman year the boys had made their way to the top line on their JV squad, which was quite the achievement considering the rich history of the Arrowhead program. After having a successful first season Ian and Bert were hooked and had made up their mind that they were going to be contributors to a few more years on the state championship hockey banners hung in the ice rink.
The two of them spent most of their next summer fine tuning their skating skills and putting in some real ice time. The hard work made an immediate impact on the Arrowhead program and the two brothers helped bring the Warhawks deep into the state tournament, only to be eliminated one round shy of the championship game after one of their star defense-men underwent a tournament ending injury. The Warhawks weren’t able to even come home with a 3rd place finish, leaving the boys with a bad taste in their mouth that only motivated them more and brought their game to new levels.
After the conclusion of their sophomore year the boys basically became permanent residence of the ice rink during the summer once again and continued to put in hour upon hour. The Warhawks took the season by storm which was no surprise to anyone in the state given the fact that almost the entire team from the year before was returning. Arrowhead waltzed through the group stage of the state tournament and were seeded #1 in the bracket. They made it through the semi-final round in a grueling overtime 5-4 victory and were the favorites to bring home a state title in the final round. Halfway through the 2nd period one of the senior defense-men lost his cool with one of the refs after a few missed calls and ended up getting ejected from the game. This turn of events threw the entire team into a downward spiral until the team self-destructed and ended the game with an embarrassing defeat of 6-1 and a bittersweet silver medal around the fellas’ necks. Instead of letting these unfortunate events discourage the young talented duo they vowed to one another to finally leave a mark on Warhawk hockey history and get their senior year up on the state championship banner.
Senior season for the Meyers brothers and the rest of the Warhawks went how anyone would have expected with Ian and Bert at the helm and a group of hardworking talented kids right behind them. The Meyers brothers we’re clicking on a level that high school hockey had never seen the likes of. Half way through the season both had almost eclipsed their previous season’s point total and were once again on pace to a state gold medal. With one last game left in the season and a very winnable state tournament ahead of them the stage was set for the brothers to finally make Warhawk hockey school history.  The night before the final game Ian headed back to the ice rink to pick up his younger brothers Gavin and Skadi from their late session of JV hockey practice that was run a few hours after the varsity practice on pregame days. On his way to the rink Ian had lost control of his Jeep on a patch of black ice and rolled his vehicle two and a half times causing the roof to collapse in on the vehicle and ultimately ending Ian’s promising young career. After these events many thought Bert would be a kid possessed on the ice and nothing would stand between him and that state championship him and his bother wanted so bad, but Ian’s death had shook the oldest brother to the core and things fell apart on the ice. With the Warhawks essentially being down two star forwards they didn’t make it out of the group stage of the tournament and Bert hung up his skates for what a lot of us thought would be forever.
 
Post High School
He never went on to play college hockey and moved into his own apartment and got a job working at a local grocery store. Bert’s passion for hockey as well as his drive and determination had seemed to fade with the passing of Ian. Many thought this was what Bert’s life would be like forever since he seemed to lack any sort of ambition or purpose in life anymore.
 
Present Day
Let’s now fast forward five years, after not stepping foot back into the old high school ice rink, Bert was persuaded to attend his youngest brother Phineas’ first high school hockey by his parents. While watching his youngest brother lead Arrowhead to their first victory of the season Bert was taken back to the days he used to play hockey there with Ian and all the fond memories he had made with his best friend and partner in crime. Something about this experience urged Bert to pull out the old skates and get back to the sport that he had once enjoyed so much.
After playing in a rec league for a summer, Bert was starting to brush off the dust and his passion for hockey was starting to burn deep inside him once again. He caught wind of a minor hockey league team that was a day’s drive north into Minnesota and he decided he would try out for the team for the upcoming 65th season. After a shaky first day of tryouts he was to his surprise asked back for the 2nd day of tryouts. To many people’s disbelief he made the final cut.
 
 With a new revived passion for hockey Bert is on a mission live up to that promise he made his brother to win a state championship and do him one better with a Founder’s Cup. With the season just weeks in, Bert’s long vacation away from highly competitive hockey is showing and the left winger is off to a slow start. Do not let this slow start sully your image of Bert and the future he has in front of him yet, he has an unmatched work ethic and determination that will eventually help elevate him to elite status. Now we’ll just have to sit back and watch while the rest of the story tells itself.
