Hey southpaw, I'd definitely agree that for someone in your situation, getting involved in opposition scouting might be the most useful role. Helping scout our next opponents, figuring out what they do well/poorly, how best to attack them, etc, is probably to most transferable skill one can take from being involved in the NT, since it's pretty similar to how you'd want to plan for league matches. Of course, the levels of skills are different, but I don't think that makes much of a difference--teams still have their relative strengths and weaknesses, and finding those and figuring out how best to exploit them is pretty valuable.

As for the offsite, there's a thread pinned to the top of the bb-usa forum (NT news & info, this one, I think: (136866.1)) with instructions on getting to it and creating an account.

Ok so i got set up with that, i sent you a bb-mail with my email in it. Let me know what i can do.

Thanks for all the interest! Here's what I've got so far:

Reporters: BFiddy & PrizzlePulse. I've got some ideas, but I like what you guys have already mentioned, so I'll let you two spearhead this. I think game reports, occasional standings/around the world NT updates, etc would be great in making it easier for more people to follow the NT.

Domestic scouts: oriolekid, mizzou28

Foreign scouts: jfriske

Opposition scouting: southpaw17, jfarb001

TBD: darkjester11, rambovt, sherlock, fatcurry

For those that didn't specify, or those that haven't responded yet but are interested, I think the domestic scouting and opposition scouting positions are where we could really still use a few more people. For the domestic scouts, I think it makes sense to break it up by position, so, someone for guards, someone for forwards, someone for centers.

If I've forgotten someone, *please* let me know. Also, I think everyone here has an offsite account, so I'll probably move this over there. But, let me know if you still need an account.
