What the hell, it is time that I started reading the Canadian forums again. And what better way to start than to throw my hat in the ring as a candidate for Canada's NT. There is never any debate in Canadian elections and while I do not expect to win, I want a debate!

So you guessed it - I am trying to one up all of the joke candidates out there and enter as the ultimate joke candidate. Here is what I promise to do if I am elected:

-I do not make any promises to post anything on the off-site forum. I will when I have time but no promises.
-I will not post anything in the Canadian forum. Anything I do post will be on the off-site.
-I will not be making any efforts to scout U21 prospects.
-Basically, what I will do is manage the team to the best of my abilities and select what I think are the best line-ups and tactics for the team.

A little about me: I started in season 2 and so far I have done nothing spectacular. I managed the U21 in the past and had a pretty disastrous tenure with one of our best teams ever. The best I can say is that I set The Mogul up with home court advantage. My best finish so far is 2nd in Naismith's great 8, where Random Noise simply pumelled me in the playoffs.

I personally detest all the top Canadian managers and I refuse to work with any of them. If you want proof, just look at some of my past disagreements with RIP and other top notch Canadian managers. Ok, I have yet to disagree with The Mogul but I just sense that something is brewing.

So - if you want a crappy NT team vote for me.

I decided to throw my basketball into the hoop as a Candidate, I know what your thinking, and yes i probably am under qualified based on experience playing this game, but on the upside i probably have more time for NT team the most GM's, All I can really offer you is that i will do my very best to get Canada that win whether if its watching every game or arguing with The Referee on every Foul against us.
thank you for taking the time to read this and i hope you take me even slightly seriously =)

I have decided that I will run this year as well, mainly to get my name out there, and try to get 2nd place :)

Here's a brief history of my playing time in BB.
I started playing in season 9, and had a pretty solid 19 year old MVP to start with, which was a bit of luck. I managed to train him up to about a $60k salary, so he was always pretty much the best player in my league in divisions III and IV. I quickly promoted from div IV in my first season, then nearly promoted again the following season, losing in the semi finals (if I won the semi's, I would have easily won the finals). The following season, I promoted to div II.1 and have been there ever since. I have come either 4th or 5th in each of my seasons in this division. I think I am quite knowledgeable of the game, and have discussed many national team related issues on the offsite forum, as I have always been very interested in the NT and U21.

As a trainer, I made my starting center into what he is today, as he was the initial trainee that my team started out with. I could have possibly made him into an NT center, but it wouldn't have been smart because his secondaries weren't very good and he would have become far too expensive. So instead, I have switched to guard training and currently have 2 of the best 3 20 year old guards. Both are HOF potential and NT hopefuls in the future. I am very dedicated to helping Canada become one of the top teams in the world.

As a manager, I think I could hold my own tactically, but I would definitely need help learning the ropes, and would rely on The Mogul and RiP a lot to help me learn everything. If you have any questions, I'll be in the debate thread.
