He has preserved us for such a time as this, I believe, so that we are hopefully able to finally see our Lord's return to us, when He returns to the Mount of Olives, and all comes to pass as it must in this world of ours. Just as He placed Hadassah, AKA Esther, in Susa after Queen Vashti was removed from her position as Queen to Ahaseurus, so that deliverance would come to the Jews in the Persian Empire amidst great adversity. Mordecai even told Esther that perhaps she had been brought to her current high position for such a time as they were now in, remember?
I am quite enjoying the coverage to date of the NIRL. In fact, I would love to see you expand it, if possible. And for you to show more of the backstory, and all, not just to the league, but to your life as well, if you're comfortable enough with doing so. We youngsters don't often seem to recognize you need a good understanding of the past to avoid certain mistakes in the future, in my view.
So please, don't omit the off-field developments, both in real life and in the league's setting, et cetera. Okay? CD out.

I'm glad you have an interest in the life and times of the 50's... so I will keep including it.
As far as continuing a backstory, I am not good at that... never have been able to get player personalities and conflicts in my dynasty leagues... I don't do dialogue very well... I'm just a pretty good sportswriter... I just give the facts and not much else... my dynasties are "stats dumps"... I just cover the league in generic terms and give a lot of statistics.
I also try to present my dynasty leagues well... with good writing, good presentation... and the absolute best graphics I can get as far as logos, jerseys and caps... I think good graphics are an important element in a good dynasty report... along with good storylines.
The really good dynasties, in my opinion, get involved in the player's and management's lives... and the really good ones have a good sense of humor, too.
