Miami Presser week ending Sept 8 2024

 

1. Will Dog Jagr finish the regular season as the league leader in hits?

2. Which trade deadline addition will make the most impact?

3. Why are we struggling to score at the moment?

4. Which team do you want to face in the first round of the playoffs?

5. If you could create a sim league with any sport, what sport would you do?

6. NFL starts this week! Who are you cheering for and will you be watching?

1. I definitely think there’s a chance Jagr can! Though I wouldn’t be 100% sure you can never count ‘em out 

2. That’s a hard one! As a trade deadline addition myself I don’t think you can go wrong with any answer! While I’d love to say myself, I haven’t been really impactful, so I will say Jerry has been a great pickup!

3. I think that we need some time to get together, we have around 10 games left in the season, and I think we just need time to get to know each other! Believe in Miami

4. I really can’t say! All teams are great, honestly every series will be a hard fought series!

5. That’s another hard one, usually it’d be hockey, but since the VHL already exists, it’ll say cricket

6. I am starting to watch this year! I’ll likely be supporting the Buffalo Bills as they’re the closest team to me!

It's a statistic that is very hard to predict, and because of my personal preference I think he won't finish as the leader.

Look man, I'm not going to front about knowing a lot about the past trade deadline especially in the minors. The player traded for most 1st rounders will be the one.

I think it's fine? We have little offense outside our top three guys and sometimes you just face a tough stretch. Quality of defense and especially goaltending is pretty good this VHLM season.

If we could somehow play Sask it'd be sweet.

Not sure. It would have to be something that doesn't necessarily already have a strong foothold and history. But also interesting to me...? idk, golf?

I'm not cheering for anything particular. Very interesting in San Francisco with their talent across the board. I will be watching most sundays when they are at reasonable times.

1. Feeling anxious. I'm a rookie in this league and excited to be playing some series against the same team. Really looking forward to building that familiarity with the other team.
2. The altitude I'm worried about, especially coming from Miami at sea level. But it's not a long flight at least.
3. We got Mexico City - ready for them!
4. Clearly Vegas is all Aces these days. They are tough.
5. I started playing hockey at 9. Video games and sports. 
6. Winter means watching some NHL games, especially with the excitement for our young guns.

1. It’s a good feeling for sure, love making the playoffs and wouldn’t mind winning a cup yeah?

 

2. That’s a though one! That was Dabnad Shaw’s first team and I have strong relations with them to this date, however that will simply make the victory sweeter

 

3. Honestly, I wouldn’t prefer any single team, imo all the teams are strong, though I do think that Mexico City is a good draw for us

 

4. I think the Reapers have a good chance to take it all this year!

 

5. Yes!!! I’m glad you asked, as a child I played basketball, baseball, soccer, cricket, volleyball, and handball, though you could say I’m still a child so I have a chance to increase this count in the future!

 

6. Summer for sure, while I enjoy being able to go out with my friends, the heat does get unbearable sometimes!

Miami Marauders Presser Week Ending Sept 22. 2024

 

1. It’s PLAYOFF SZN! Miami vs. Mexico City in round 1. Mexico City is the favourite but can we upset them?

2. Do you want to see personal success during the playoffs or would you sacrifice that for the team to win it all?

3. Some massive news has come out recently in the VHL. The VHLE is folding! What are your thoughts on this?

4. The VHLM has now become even more important than ever as players will be spending a couple seasons with their M team rather than jumping through leagues every season. Do you think this simpler approach will be beneficial for the league?

5. NFL week 2 is underway, were there any surprises in week 1? Or do you even care about the NFL?

6. The NHL preseason is about to start, how excited are you for hockeys return?

6. The NHL preseason is about to start, how excited are you for hockeys return?

1. We've already shocked them. Our team just rallied together after we learned how to integrate the new players.
2. I am happy to sacrifice it all for the team. 
3. As a new player to the league (and VHL), I'd love to see a lot more faces and real players in the VHLM. It may make my journey to VHL longer but I'm looking forward to a more lively league. 
4. Yes I think getting more of a community feeling will get people more engaged and stay around.
5. Baltimore 0-2? TB beating Detroit. I don't care as much as I used to but Brock Purdy got me engaged again.
6. So excited I'm watching the NHL rookie games... It's been a long few last years as a Sharks fan.

I enjoyed beating Mexico. Las Vegas proved to be a step above in the following round, after the first three games of the series made us look very competitive.

I don't care about personal success in the playoffs. For a goaltender though, they go hand in hand.

I don't mind. I've never ever even learned what the VHLE is about and if ever I spent one season in the VHLE. Not that big of a deal to me.

It is simpler and very similar to what I expected would happen in the past, before VHLE.

Sure there were surprises. Steelers were (surprisingly?) good, and around the league there were a couple of awful injuries.

Probably less than the NFL though haha. NFL games on Sundays are like going head-to-head with the NHL games in euro timezones and NFL is very much more special par McDavid and if Colorado and Florida come out the gates super strong.

1. I don't like how y'all got eliminated.  Feels incomplete and unsatisfying really.  If you lost and there was not glitch it would hurt but not taste so bad.

 

2.  I'd say Mac and Longstreet were co-MVPs.  Both brought it.

 

3. Doesn't apply really but I will always try to play in Miami on my re-creates

 

4. I'd say goalie.  With a good goalie I feel you can go far in VHLM

 

5. Yes,  my wife is from California so been a few times. It's fun but SUPER crowded and the lines are insane, even with a fast pass.  Makes it much less enjoyable

 

6. Fuck Oreos, marry skittles, and kill Doritos

1. I watched the first run and was so excited to see us push a Game 7 but then saw the Sim license come up. So sad. Just bummed we didn't get to see a Game 7
2. Draw Mac did the best he could - shutout 1.41 GAA against the high powered Aces.
3. I'd love to stick with Miami - great team, great GM

4. Clearly we need some LW 
5. Yes, growing up in California - we went several times when I was a kid. Went once with my niece and nephew. Funny enough, my kids have no interest and not they're teenagers. 
6. Nestle Crunch Bars, Popcorn, Pork Rinds

Presser week ending Oct 6 2024

 

1. The VHLE has officially folded! How do we feel about the new league structure?

3. Miami will be adding a couple more via the dispersal draft, Do you think we could turn the team into contenders for next season?

4. What’s your players off-season plans?

5. What show or movie is a guilty pleasure of yours?

1. I'm very new here and curiously anxious for new structure, especially given that I'll be drafted as well (might change teams) as a lot more people on the team. Looking forward to seeing what happens.
2. They will be great for us moving forward - good experience.
3. Looking forward to more active players!
4. Aiming to get those double TPE (x6) going. Holding back a bit until draft. 
5. I did a Fast and Furious marathon last year while I had Covid. I think it got repetitive after 4 but entertaining at the beginning
6. Law and order - I think I burned out of them early. Never could get into ER especially when friends did.

2. Huge!  Always good to have players who want to be a team 

 

3. I hope so   I always root for Miami

 

4. Ive done a re-roll with Ninefingers to make him better.  We will see

1. Ahhh it’s a bit weird. I was one of those people who joined around the COVID times, so it’s a bit weird seeing the E gone now, but it’s a change that needed to happen

2. WE’RE GONNA WIN THE CUP RAHHHHHHH

3. As I mentioned in the last question, WE’RE GONNA WIN THE CUP RAHHHHHHH

4. I need to start becoming a full time earner, so finish a 4 week media spot (check), and start doing things like pressers and articles. Also improve my defense a bit, and my offense a whole lot more.

5. Never Have I ever (I’m a teenage boy)

6. In general I don’t watch movies, but I hate movies that have too many sequels with the exact same plot.

1. Well Shaw makes sure that he can stay in shape during the off-season, meaning that he has an intense gym work out that may not be disclosed for secrecy.

2. I mean, the off-season always has more parties and events, so more cheat days are more common . Shaw’s favorite cheat meal is a good panner-jalapeño pizza.

3. We should all go to New York and explore the city, or internationally go to Australia

4. Autograph, Shaw absolutely hates pictures (he’s like me fr)

5. I love the ecosystem and culture that has let me thrive in the league, a competitive but helpful culture!

6. The amount of words I have to write per week increases so much because of the league, should be less tbf.

6. What is one improvement you would suggest for the league?

1. Rest first. Continue cardio in the pool (low-impact). Watch game tape of mistakes and of players who do it better. Then one ice skating, skills. Then find others to find scrimmages. 
2. Normal meal plans, with the usual number of cheats. Too much popcorn and fried chicken cheat
3. Lake Tahoe - it's beautiful and they now have a minor league team 
4. Photo - it can be personal 
5. VHL - great community. VHE disbanding shows all the players understood what needed to happen to improve quality of play. 
6. Probably more clarity for new players that their first team is just a tryout and they will get drafted. I know I was surprised and another player "didn't consent to it". 

Love being a part of it.
