I was president of my middle school.
My vote will go with Namssor. I respect GM-Jason and Oriolekid as managers but they have many strikes against them compared to a long time, experienced user like Namssor.
Sidenote: You guys are really cluttering up this thread with useless posts, and really taking away from people like me and Jason trying to answer the questions. Please try to refrain from needlessly bashing each other or trolling. No one is going to take the time to read a 250 post thread with like 30 actual questions and answers. Anyway...
From what's being said here it seems that the consensus from all the candidates is that a main obsticle to success is the lack of a 18/18/18ish big man. And that such a big man is not likely to be trained in the near future since foreign owners don't want to train the prospects, and USA I.1 is too competative for an owner to take on the financial risk and train such a player. So, let's say that, without a big dollop of luck, such big men will not be a reality for the team anytime soon. My question to the candidates is, 1) What are the ideal G / SF prototypes to cover/compliment for our existing frontcourt deficiancies?2) If such players don't exist now, how would you encourage their training by U21 grads or others so that they exist a few seasons down the line?
2) I think the only way to truly hold and keep a player that would suit our needs is to have a experienced manager who is getting tired of the game take a hit for the team and maintain such a player for us.
Unfortunately I'm going away on a bachelor party this weekend to Montreal starting tonight, so since I'll be out of the country I'm gonna post a similar fact summary and just let it ride.
