Written Task: Tell me how your player deals with negative attention from fans or journalists! Do you get in fights on Twitter? Ignore it all? Prove them wrong with your play? Do you say or do anything when you have to face a reporter that said something bad about you in a media scrum? Does this kind of thing get to your player, or is it just part of the job? (150+ words)
This one is tough. One of the hardest things to do as a professional simulation athlete is to be consistent. Being a good or a great player is never enough, it is an expectation you are consistently good. But the truth of the matter is, that's an impossibility. No matter how great of a player you are, you are just one of eighteen, and you will have bad games. Such is life. It's how you deal with it, and how you respond on the ice that forges your path as a player. Egli is a gem, because at the end of the day he couldn't care less what a bunch of twitter trolls have to say. He gets home after a game, kicks his shoes off and heads straight to the sauna for a schvitz. Nothing can melt away a bad day quite like a good sweat. Then he'll hop right on over to a cold shower. After the shower he'll head to bed, and if a single bad though begins to creep into his head he'll just cuddle a stack of cash like a fucking build-a-bear and sleep like a baby. |
