hahaha we scared away all the candidates!

I would agree that it is hard to get support if people have not heard of your name before, but it is equally part of the experienced managers' fault for not being able to promote the NT/U21 enough and "breed" the next generation of managers

I really didn't mean to do that and I apologize. I was just acting on impulse because I read Bbalin's speech and I could tell how much effort he put into it. Read his speech and everyone else's. If you didn't know any of them, who would you vote for? It would be Bbalin. Good luck in the next season. What are your plans for the Canadian NT?

Well now there's a debate!

I already said most of it to olani (who apologised to me directly) via BB-mail, but I think it would be good to say it "out loud".
First of I'm not mad or anything like it, and I didn't put my name in just for the sake of it.
Yes I'm a newcomer, I just played this game for 4 months, but during these 4 months I've been on the website A LOT, I've been there almost every night game, and I've read countless threads on the forum. But I never talked because I just never had anything to say, anything valuable to add to the debate, I just watch and learn. And when you look at my record I think I have not been that bad.
I also watched a lot of NT matches, especially U21 because I'm interested in the training aspect of the game, and what I could gather is that the U21 manager hasn't that much effect on the issue of the games, he can only be as good as his players.
I have nothing againt BBallin, to be honest I was even planning on voting for him before I realized I could put my name.
In my mind, a good U21 manager should really try to help as much as possible the managers (especially the new ones), to have them build the best possible players, by trying to tell them what they should improve. How many new managers (div3 and div4 especially) would stay in the game if they had someone to train, and a U21 manager telling them "this week you should train Pressure, it will improve this etc."?
Anyway I'm not a good talker, I just watch and listen, and there's no need to be arrogant or a jackass, after all it's just a game.

PS: I live in Quebec so English is not my first language, so please don't judge the quality of my writing ;)

Golfed 18 holes today with some fantastic friends, got hammered afterwards at a sensational pub. Now considering going after Bballin and his crown jewel...

Maybe in the morning :)

True that, mod. It's kind of dumb coming out of nowhere, not even contributing to Canada but expecting votes. Like GM-Beanerz said, my vote goes to Mod-Bbalin until someone does enough to change my mind.


Almost everything about this post was either misguided or somewhat inaccurate.

1. Changing the Canadian flag? Allergy Smallergy. If they got a problem with the flag then they get the heck out of Canada, we do not need their flea bitten swollen butts.

2. I was thinking Molson Canadian.

3. Well, Collin took it hard. Real hard. He is a changed man. He came up to me yesterday with dreams of being a figure skater and living in Russia. I slapped the shit out of him. Actually come to think of it, he is still unconcious... crap.

I took SOOO much time and effort on these ;)

You seem like a pretty good talker here and you do bring you up some valuable input, which you should do on the offsite as well as onsite. Continue this and Canada could use you in the future. :)
