I should not be a Commish

 

Good evening y’all for this fairly late PT I am submitting.  I am here to discuss what I would do as a commish in the VHL but more importantly why I shouldn’t be a commissioner probably ever!

 

For those that don’t know, there was a very real chance I could have became one at point. In fact, if not for Victor not taking my interest as anything more than a joke, I may just have donned blue at one point in this league. Alas, it was likely for the best that didn’t happen. 

I have been doing these sim leagues since I was around twelve years old (fun fact I’m 31 now). I have held many positions in a ridiculous amount of leagues in numerous different sports. I have been a GM, a Simmer, a Grader, a Magazine Writer and yes, even a Commissioner. And it hasn’t always been my best performance, commissioner that is. 

 

I have commished in several leagues including most notably the MFA (Madden Football Association) where things were notoriously hectic as multiple older football leagues joined together and ultimately struggled to co-exist at time. Although, positive news is some of the remnants came through and eventually joined other leagues including the Victory Hockey League.  So I guess it’s not all bad.  

 

With that being said if the league was ever dumb enough to give me such a role I probably wouldn’t do anything too crazy.  

 

I would want to bring back something similar to the VHL Mag or perhaps branch out the VSN Presentation a bit. This was always one of my favourite parts of these leagues, and like the Portal can be quite an eye catcher to newer members, especially if they are being featured.   Heck we used to have people pay to be featured!

 

Additionally, I’d want to rebrand every teams logo in conjunction with my new reign of terror.  Everyone needs a new logo and a fresh cut with brand new jerseys and fits. I would want the Christopher Miller Era to be one of similar hockey but with cooler uniforms!

 

I’d also like to really incorporate some kind of money reward system similar to SHL as more of a side option for equipment to boost attributes or even to work on lesser statistics specifically, like team bonding sessions to increase leadership. 
 

Finally, I would close the book on our statistical records and accomplishments and enter a new era with 10 season caps. 8 and 9 are not enough and I want an even 10 to be what our players can experience when they get to the pros.  We don’t get enough time with our creations and why put such a low cap on some of the greatest careers in the history of ice and pucks. 

So obviously I wouldn’t be a very good Commish.  Those ideas are likely beyond trash but ultimately with the goal being to improve our league. That’s what matters…I’ve been in this league since Season 17 (I don’t count my inactive S12 12 TPE ass) and the league has drastically made incredible growth over time.
