VHLM Rookie Season Review
 
The 16 year old from Great Britain made his VHLM debut to not a roaring thunder but a quiet whimper. Hailed as the next big thing in hockey William may just be the newest fad. William a player that raised national attention due to his bizarre behavior and particular family heritage. But if his great great grandfather had seen him play he might have said  As his great 
                              
  "Everyone can master a grief but he that has it."
- William Shakespeare 
 
But a quote from a poet more contemporary then William that is equally applicable is:
 
“Reality is often disappointing"
-Thanos

William a highly touted prospect form Great Britain was ranked as one of the best recruits coming to the VHLM this off season. A prospect on professional radar for a number of years William’s pure talent as well as natural athleticism has allowed him to dominate the British Minor Leagues before making his professional career in Britain the prior season. Scoring a remarkable 71 goals and 38 assists in the prior season. William was named in the U-19 World Championship squad but it was here his tale began to unravel; William sustained a devastating injury in this completion.
 

 Tearing the ACL in his Right Knee William was to be sidelined for at least a year. Of course, this news was sad for both William and his family but also the San Diego Marlins that were searching for the next franchise superstar with the singing of William. Of course having your star player leave the team suddenly before the start of a major tournament can be demoralizing and Great Britain bowed out in early rounds well under pundit predictions.
 
Coach of the team Arnold Hambruger gave the following statement:
“Losing William was a major blow but while William is individually a talented player, I still feel like my team has the talent and commitment to bring this title home.”
Hambruger was proven thoroughly wrong as they were defeated 5-1 in the second round against Mexico.
 
With the World Championship now behind him William now had to move to the next stage of his life, moving to San Diego full time to complete rehab. Although William was friendly teammates, staff and press the first report of William’s struggles was released on the 3/05/2020. The article titled “William Shakespeare II questioning future in hockey” the report detailed the myriad of setbacks William was experiencing with rehab and the mental effect this was taking, William was quoted:
 
"To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life."
 
While his tendency to quote William Shakespeare does make communicating with William difficult it was clear the young man was struggling. The Marlins facing little choice allowed William time away from the team to contemplate future in hockey. William took this time to return to Great Britain the events that occurred in Great Britain have so far not been revealed William hinting they may later be revealed in tell all autobiography. One thing is for sure whatever happened across the ocean reignited Williams love for hockey. The training staff applauded William’s commitment and drive and with renewed vigor rehab’s argues journey came to a close; it was time for William to take to the ice once again.
 
William made a cautious debut against the Houston Bulls playing fundamentally sound William neither wowed nor disappointed fans. William’s play improved over the rest of season ending with totals of 3 goals and 2 assists across 37 games. Although not the spectacular production William was expected to have the result is far above what was expected earlier in the season when his return to hockey was questionable. William was a solid piece aiding in the Marlins to finish the season and move into the play offs. The response to William’s first season was almost as diverse as they come, local sports analysts made a variety of takes ranging all sides of the spectrum from “Shakespeare turns out to be talent-less hack” to “William’s emphatic return to sport may be a shinning light in hockey’s future”. But while media response was varied the Marlins had one iron clad uniform take “William is a highly talented and team orientated player.” Before the playoffs began the Marlins hosted a press conference in which GM InstantRockstar has the following statement:
“Moving forward we are incredibly lucky to have a talented and driven player like William on the team, whatever team drafts him in the VHL will be lucky to have him”  William said that once the time has come again he will be ready to answer the call and fulfill his dream of leading Great Britain to international success.

 
San Diego’s first round match up is against the Ottawa Lynx and William will be relied on as his role within the team is every growing. The first three games of William’s career were relatively uneventful individually for the young winger. The Marlins took control of the series early with a 2 to 1 win advantage against the Lynx. It was in the fourth game William had the best game of his young professional career. In a thrilling build up in the second period of the fourth game William Shakespeare II and Lester Green assisted in the opening goal for the Marlin tying the game at 1 to 1. The play was very similar to William’s play before his initial injury and is a promising sign to full recovery. William is a highly talented player with a bright future and his journey is far from over. Before the latest game William gave the quote when asked about dealing with adversary and moving forward:
 
"Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once."
 
Once again the old English somewhat clutters William’s message but the heart still rings true. William will continue to be a example of shinning determination and growth as his  potential continues to bloom and I for one am looking forward to were that potential takes him.

You looking kinda fishy bro

Correct but two players triggered my trap.

The hypnotist and the doctor.

Damn, also just a fun update my YMCA team just got a good win.

Me please!

Me please!

Being my first character on the VHL it is difficult to look towards the future when the present has only just begun. However, I do enjoy the creation portion of sim-leagues very much, my current SBA and VHL characters are named Julius Caesar II and William Shakespeare II. Evidently, I enjoy going for a history theme for my characters names and I feel like that helps me add a little but extra to my media spots which let them be both more interesting to write and more interesting to read. So then the question is raised; what do my future re-creates in the VHL look like? Well the only way to answer that is to look to the past.
 
Lü Bu

When it comes to history not much is both as fun and interesting as the Romance of the Three Kingdom. Romance of the Three Kingdom’s is a historical novel set in the years towards the end of the Han dynasty in Chinese history.  The story as the name indicators heavily romanticizes the lives of the feudal lords and retainers of the time. Lü Bu is a character both within Chinese history and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms; within the romance  is a nearly invincible warrior but was a incapable leader and noted for his poor planning and management skills. Infact Lü Bu was once easily manipulated into killing his own father:
 
“Lü Bu said, "But we are father and son!" Wang Yun replied, "Your family name is Lü so you have no blood relations with him. Lü Bu agreed to join them and personally killed Dong Zhuo (His Father figure) later.”
 
Overall Lü Bu is an incredibly fun character that I think is summed up well with this he by Sanguozhi:
 
‘Lü Bu possessed the might of a tiger, but he lacked the planning skills of a talented person. He was frivolous
and temperamental, and was only concerned about the gains he could make. Throughout history, there had never been such persons like him who did not end up being destroyed.”
 
So, what does this mean in terms of Lü Bu within the VHL, well the choice isn’t as obvious as it seems. Lü Bu could be represented by a player that is unparalleled in the ability to score. But Lü Bu could also be a player that speciality is fighting. Overall, I think both are important to create an accurate representation of Lü Bu in the VHL. Looking to the past for a player example Podrick Cast has the dynamic scoring that a Lü Bu should have:
 

However, as I’m sure you have noticed Podrick has 95 leadership, Lü Bu was famous for being a terrible leader so those points can safely be put into fighting. Finally, I have come to an understating that fighting is not a stat that helps the team win. For these reasons I don’t think Lü Bu will find his way to the VHL through me until I am in a situation in which  I am free to create a character that is more for fun then for winning.

William Shakespeare II Press Release

Today 16 year old hockey phenom will be announcing the team he will be debuting his talent in the VHLM. While being a talent with equal on the ice, it is only equaled by eccentrics. Calling himself William Shakespeare II the young man is truly a conundrum. Speaking primarily in “Old English” and a thick accent; William is incredibly hard to understand. Reports have said that combined with his personalities issues this makes William difficult to play with.
 
Still considered the best player in the United Kingdom William has been scoring goals for fun in the minor leagues. Clearly needing a bigger platform VHLM scouts have been seen attending games recently. Growing VHL hype has begun to mount fast whispers of Mexico City became almost the assured landing spot but recent betting odds have swiftly shifted to a different team. It is time to find out whether the betters know something we don’t.
 
We will be providing a live translation of the press conference, apologies for any tardiness translating William can be incredibly difficult.

 
William :"All mine own life hockey hath been mine passion, and tonight i shall announceth what team i shall beest pursuing yond passion with. The final options i hadst remaining w're the San Diego Marlins, Mexico City Kings and Yukon. While a tough decision t is mine own burden to beareth unfolding who shall squire my service."
 
Translation: All my life hockey has been my passion, and tonight I will announce what team I will be pursuing that passion with. The final options I had remaining were the San Diego Marlins, Mexico City Kings and Yukon. While a tough decision tonight I will be announcing who I have signed with.
 
William: "The marlins art a most wondrous team in a most wondrous city so obviously yond is a v'ry enticing off'r. But weath'r  warm’th i pref'r the merit'r weath'r of london.  The coacheth hast given me confidence yond san diego hast culture yond shall very much holp me groweth as a playeth'r.  Ov'rall combing the city with the team san diego is a stout choice."
 
Translation: The Marlins are a great team in a great city so obviously that is a very enticing offer. But I am not a huge fan of hot weather I prefer the cooler weather of London. The coach has given me confidence that San Diego has culture that will really help me grow as a player. Overall combing the city with the team San Diego is a strong choice.
 
William: "Mexico city kings gaveth me a excellent fourm, i wast did sell on their ability to holp mine own becometh a wondrous playeth'r.  The team’s theme of royalty reminds me of on of mine own fav'rite quotes “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.” The kings shall truly beest a lodging in which i can becometh a playeth'r w'rthy of the coronet."
 
Translation: Mexico City Kings gave me a excellent presentation, I was sold on their ability to help my become a wondrous player. The team’s theme of royalty reminds me of one of my favorite quotes “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.” The kings will truly be a place in which i can become a player worthy of the crown.
 
William: "At which hour i visit'd yukon t reminds v'ry much of home.  Bleak m'rnings and dreary raineth truly maketh me feeleth at ease.  In t'rms of hockey yukon wast a location i couldst truly becometh mine own owneth sir.  Many of mine own icons wouldst has't taken this off'r.  The prospective team mates on yukon has't excellent talent and wouldst complicate mine own arts well.  Playing at yukon is a choice many most wondrous men wouldst maketh"
 
Translation: When I visited Yukon it reminds very much of home. Bleak mornings and dreary rain truly make me feel at ease. In terms of hockey Yukon was a location I could truly become my own man. Many of my icons would have taken this offer. The prospective team mates on Yukon have excellent talent and would complicate my skills well. Playing at Yukon is a choice many great men would make.
 
William: Tis timeth to maketh mine own final announcement.  I shall beest taking mine own s'rvice to the san diego marlins, while mexcio city and yukon art v'ry enticing off'rs and i thanketh those folk f'r the faith those gents did place in me.  I has't hath decided yond san diego is the most wondrous lodging f'r me to excel as playeth'r and a p'rson.  Thanketh thee f'r listing and desire you’re watching in san diego
 
Translation: It is time to make my final announcement. I will be taking my service to the San Diego Marlins, while Mexcio City and Yukon are very enticing offers and I thank them for the faith they placed in me. I have decided that San Diego is the best place for me to excel as player and a person. Thank you for listing and hope you’re watching in San Diego.

So that’s that William will be joining the San Diego Marlins under @InstantRockstar. As an analyst I feel like this is a good opportunity for William as San Diego provides a good space for him to mature as a player and a person. I think Ryan Schwarz @Enorama is a quality player that may take William under his wing. Players on the squad like Nathaniel N @NathanN and Mahin Ganeshathasan @Mahin2105 have been praised for their determination and work ethic traits that William largely lacks; hopefully through interacting with these players William will develop into the player he has the potential to be.
 
For San Diego expect a technically skilled player that can grab a goal but still has a ways to go before they are a finished product. But patience will be rewarded by a myriad of goals and flashing passes, along with nearly incomprehensible ramblings from a lunatic. If William wasn’t so good at hockey, he more than likely would be in an institution.
 
First article any feedback would be great. Is technically 1000 words but as you have noticed like 300 words are just the same words repeated. Looking for consultation as to if this is good enough to count as two weeks of points.
