User blog comment:FluffyYoshi/Survivor: Mali Castaway Applications/@comment-27246540-20160426065923

Name: Mark Nelson (33)

Occupation: NFL Free-Agent

Brief Description: Wanting to follow the footsteps of his father James, Mark has paid his dues to become a hell of a Linebacker. While he has proven himself as a powerful force for several years, he was booted off of his NFL team last year due to an infamous argument with an egotistical up-and-coming star player in the same squad, and for allegedly being 'injury-prone'. Unable to prove that he has another year, he has turned to Survivor in an attempt to prove the critics, smarks and coaches wrong. 

Why Does He Want to Play? Besides proving the naysayers otherwise, Mark wants to earn the money, so that he can let his parents be able to retire from working.

How Will He Play? Challenge-wise, he has the potential to become one of the biggest benefactors to a tribe, as he can lend them a huge helping hand. Social-wise, he can also have the great potential to make friends or alliances in a game like this... if he doesn't get off on the wrong foot with others.

Most Likely Placement? Given his strength and power, he may or may not be targeted as a threat early on. His placing will probably come down to his social gameplan, and if he is bad at that, then he could be one of the first castaways to leave, ranging from 13th-16th.
