The following season saw the downward trend of Laughlove’s career performance continue in a major way in his 4th season. Laughlove only put up a total of 3,617 yards, almost a full thousand yards less than his previous lowest total on only 40 less attempts. Despite the decrease in volume shown by the drops in attempts and yards, Laughlove actually maintained his efficiency when it came to scoring plays, as despite fewer attempts he finished the season matching the 30 touchdowns of the prior season. Much of the decrease in performance can be attributed to the Colorado Yeti obtaining new, young talent to surround Laughlove with, including rookie wide receiver Rocky Moreaux. In addition to that, the weapons he was previously comfortable with in Cole Maxwell and Sam Squanch had begun showing their age, not having as strong of performances themselves as in the past. Despite the decrease in productivity, the Yeti matched the previous season’s win total with 5, and looked to bounce back the following season.

This would mark the 4th straight season of dropping TD counts, stretching all the way back to his rookie season.

Live Laughlove (born July 13, 2024) is an American football quarterback who is currently preparing to enter the professional ranks.He played college football for University of Florida (Florida) and has declared his intent to enter the professional ranks next season.

Early years

"Live Laughlove was born and raised in Miami, Florida. Contrary to popular belief, Live Laughlove is actually his legal given name, bestowed upon him by his hippy mother Janet and self described ""Florida Man"" father Hank. Despite the seemingly cheerful name, Live found himself rebelling and contact football became his outlet. Finding his natural arm strength worked to his benefit, he soon expanded into playing multiple sports at a young age.

Upon entering his freshman year in high school, Laughlove found himself playing quarterback for the football team, pitching for the baseball team, and bizzarely enough, participating in the shot put for the track team. As a result, Laughlove's already considerable arm strength only improved over time and he soon found himself shattering state records for high school passing yards that were previously thought unbreakable. Despite continuing to also have a reputation as a bit of a troublemaker at the same time, Laughlove's athletic abilities were impressive enough for many colleges to overlook his character issues and offer him full ride athletic scholarships."

College career

"Ever one to buck trends, Laughlove shocked his friends and family when rather going to the local University of Miami, he decided to make the move up north to Gainesvile to attend rival school University of Florida, despite being offered full ride scholarships at both. Despite his generational talent, Laughlove was redshirted his first year and told he needed to improve his attitude and worth ethic if he wanted the starting spot for his freshman season. For the first time in his life, the message got through to Laughlove and he cleaned his life up, becoming a role model and captain for his team for the remainder of his college career.

After completing a solid, if quiet freshman season, Laughlove would explode onto the scene his sophomore season, winning the Heisman Trophy. While his Junior season would end up a bit of a disappointment, Laughlove would decide at the end that he was ready to take the next step and enter the DSFL draft without playing a Senior season."

S34

Live Laughlove began his ISFL career in S34 after spending two seasons down in the DSFL playing for the Tijuana Luchadores. During those two seasons he amassed both a Most Valuable Player and Offensive Player of the Year award. That, as well as the fact he was highly drafted at 5th overall, meant there was a ton of pressure on the rookie quarterback stepping into the most prolific passing offense in the ISFL. Laughlove ended up performing well under pressure, leading the league in both passing yards and touchdowns with 5,568 and 39 respectively. Unfortunately with such high volume Laughlove also had a penchant for turning the ball over, amassing 18 interceptions and losing 8 fumbles. Nevertheless, despite the Yeti ending the season at a disappointing 2-14, Laughlove earned himself an Offensive Rookie of the Year award for his efforts, as well as tying in the league’s user voted Most Outstanding Player award. While not the best season, the S34 season showed a lot of promise for the young quarterback.

S35

S35 saw all in all a decrease in volume for Live Laughlove, offset by a significant increase in efficiency. With retirements and aging players hurting the Colorado Yeti receiving threats, the team was forced to turn away from the former Offensive Rookie of the Year in favor of a more prominent rushing attack. Despite dropping to 5th in the league in pass attempts, a stark contrast to leading the league in the prior season, Laughlove still ended up 1st in passing yards. Additionally, he set a career season record in completion percent at 66.5% and quarterback rating at 101.3. The Yeti unfortunately were in for another rough season despite Laughlove’s arguably improved performance. They did manage to top their prior season win total, but not by enough to escape earning the first overall pick. While Laughlove’s S35 performance earned him a nomination for Quarterback of the Year as well as an NSFC pro bowl spot, he failed to win any awards in his sophomore season.

S36

Interestingly, S36 saw Live Laughlove have the worst performance of his career, despite the Colorado Yeti as a team improving significantly over his previous two seasons. While his passing volume was similar to S35, and thus not up to the levels of his rookie campaign, the main difference in performance came in the form of completion percentage. Laughlove finished the season completing just 60.7% of his passes, a significant drop from the 63.3% and 66.5% from S34 and S35 respectively. Where he showed improvement however, was in protecting the ball. Despite throwing 12 more times in S36 with a lower completion percentage, Laughlove threw 3 less interceptions and reduced his fumble count by 1 from the previous season while more than doubling his rushes, including recording his first career rushing touchdown. Laughlove once again did not win any awards for his performance in S36, and due to the awards formatting changes was not selected for the All-Pro team either.

S37

The following season saw the downward trend of Laughlove’s career performance continue in a major way in his 4th season. Laughlove only put up a total of 3,617 yards, almost a full thousand yards less than his previous lowest total on only 40 less attempts. Despite the decrease in volume shown by the drops in attempts and yards, Laughlove actually maintained his efficiency when it came to scoring plays, as despite fewer attempts he finished the season matching the 30 touchdowns of the prior season. Much of the decrease in performance can be attributed to the Colorado Yeti obtaining new, young talent to surround Laughlove with, including rookie wide receiver Rocky Moreaux. In addition to that, the weapons he was previously comfortable with in Cole Maxwell and Sam Squanch had begun showing their age, not having as strong of performances themselves as in the past. Despite the decrease in productivity, the Yeti matched the previous season’s win total with 5, and looked to bounce back the following season.

S38

S38 actually represented a sort of return to form for Live Laughlove. Compared to his lower numbers from last season, he managed to fall just 2 yards shy of the mark he set in S36. Unfortunately for Laughlove and the Colorado Yeti, the additional volume and yardage did not lead to additional points as Laughlove saw his total TD count drop. This would mark the 4th straight season of dropping TD counts, stretching all the way back to his rookie season. While Laughlove was once again nominated for no accolades or awards at the end of the season, the rebounding passing stats were actually very promising and likely due to the development of Colorado’s young receiving corps. There were multiple other indications that Laughlove’s performance would be trending upwards, as he also threw a career long 90 yard touchdown pass and despite throwing nearly 100 more passes than the previous season, he only threw one more interception.
