Ignatious Cleetington (born January 10, 2033) is an American football tight end who currently plays for the Tijuana Luchadores in the DSFL. He played college football for South Harmon Institute of Technology.

Early years

Ignatious Cleetington was born to Mary Louise Beauregard a janitor at Walker Air Force Base in Roswell, New Mexico. Little is known of his fathers past other than his seemingly sudden arrival to Roswell in 1947. As a young tike Ignatious had a keen interest in leather crafting and the athletic talent of a wet mop. During a 5th grade field trip to a football manufacturing facility, he was involved in a freak accident and fell into the leather tanning tank. After awakening from a 69 day coma Ignatious found he had an incredible aptitude and skillset for the great sport of football, also he had grown 5ft and 200 pounds of pure muscle during the coma. He made the varsity team of Roswell High School by the 6th grade. After a standout high school football career Ignatious set his sites on South Harmon Institute of Technology to pursue college athletics. Little is known of his fathers current whereabouts, while some claim his existence to be a government coverup.

College career

Ignatious' transfer to South Harmon Institute of Technology was an absolute wake up call for him. While enduring the institutes accreditation scandal, Cleetington initially struggled at the collegiate level. As a freshmen Ignatious competed for a roster spot squeaking by to make the final roster. Additionally a tragic ACL tear in both knees nearly sidelined him for the season, but he recovered the next day. His final stat line of his freshmen year included more injuries than TD's, 24 broken ribs, 2 C/G (concussions per game - an NCAA record), and a stubbed pinky toe. His appendix also burst three times *non-football injury. The fact that Cleetington never missed any playing time is an absolute testament to his toughness. From sophomore year on though he was able to stave off the injury bug and began putting up the points as expected. Cleetington currently holds South Harmon's records for career TD's, receptions, pancakes (eaten) and yards per catch - 15 Y/C.

Cleetington participated in the S42 Prospect Bowl as a member of the Lesotho Llamas. Though he wasn't completely satisfied with the numbers he put up throughout the bowl he was grateful for the opportunity to have played. He certainly felt like the final play of game 9, the team should have gone with the run. Its second and goal on the 1yd line and the Llamas are down by 3. Why would you kick a field goal and not atleast attempt a run...but sims gonna sim as they say. With the Prospect Bowl behind him, Cleetington's focus was solely on the draft and working to build his stock. He was drafted by the Tijuana Luchadores with the 8th pick overall. Elated with getting picked in the draft, it was time for him to put in the work and prove to his new team that he was worth his place in the draft.

DSFL S42

DSFL season 42 started off hot for Cleetington and the Luchadores. Cleetington sees his first touchdown in week 2 against the Seawolves, and Tijuana comes out swinging with a four-game winning streak. Cleetington was awarded the team game ball in the week four matchup at home against Portland, going 4-for-4 and 97Yds, with 3 pancakes. Heading into a week five bout versus Minnesotta however, they would receive their fist loss on the season. The Luchadores would bounce back and get two more wins in weeks six and seven, but would close out the season winning only three of the last seven. Though the tail end of the season did not have as many ticks in the win column, the Luchadores still manage a spot in the playoffs. The Conference Championship sees Tijuana at Norfolk for the DSFL South title. Unfortunately for Cleetington the Luchadores could not get the job done and lose 19-38 in a game that saw a one-sided second half go in in favor of the Seawolves. Ignatious Cleetington would finish the regular season with 55/74 receptions on 658 and 4 touchdowns. With eyes on the offseason, the Cleet was nor preparing to enter the ISFL draft for season 43.

ISFL S43

Ignatious Cleetington was selected 9th overall in the Season 43 ISFL draft by the [Sarasota Sailfish| Sarasota Sailfish]. Upon making the transition into the ISFL the Cleet also made a position swap from Tight End to Linebacker. Now with eyes set to the future and with goals of protecting Fishnet Stadium Iggy was ready to start waving the defensive banner of the House of the Fish. With the season getting underway Iggy found himself off to slow start defensively, amassing only eight tackles in the first four games of the season. However, his resolve was not be broken. He kept his head down and continued to work toward his goals and helping the team. Cleetington was able to break out in weeks six and eight with strong defensive showings and was awarded the teams defensive game ball award. Ultimately though the Sailfish would surprisingly end the season 8-8 and miss a chance to compete in the playoffs. With the season now in rear view mirror The Cleet took some time to head home and work on his latest leather creation, The Angry Angler, a life size leather made replica of himself. In the offseason he continued his training regiment and prepared for the what’s next for the Fish and himself.
