- Have Willis Lundy, Ismael Grubbs, and Dirk Trujillo start every single game no matter what. The other two spots will be filled by random hobos off the street. If I can't find any hobos, I will clone myself and put myself in. Don't worry, I've been training rebounding a lot lately so my jump range is really starting to improve.

If I don't make the second round you have my vote.

look very similar to this situation to me:

Interviewer: What makes you think you're qualified for this job?
Interviewee: Well, I've had a very similar experience running my own federa...
Interviewer: Scr*w your similar experience!
Interviewee: Er.. well if you look at my portfolio, my team...
Interviewer: It's ALL ABOUT YOU isn't it!
Interviewee: But I'm just trying to show you, from previous experience and undertakings that I'm good for this job.
Interviewer: We're not talking about PREVIOUS experiences. We're talking about THIS job.
Interviewee: We'll I can't prove that I'm good at this job until I get the job..
Interviewer: HAH! WHO'S YOUR DADDY NOW!


I wish we had drama like this in our forums!

A shame you didn't garner more votes. This is the best post in the entire thread.

Is that a compliment or a diss? I can't decide. Either way, it smells of jealously.

I ONLY posted 70 times on the offsite because I was busy managing my own National Team squad for about 3/4 of the time and didn't want to interfere with the current management. I wasn't sure what the ethics were there. I still read the boards almost every day back then. Just because I didn't publicly comment didn't mean I wasn't involved.

Fair enough. Like I already explained it was not a "smear job" but coco seems to like to take cheap shots himself. I never questioned involvement with NT just with the offsite period. Just as I said earlier to coco, anything said earlier was to quell the unwarranted negativity towards the other worthy candidate.

I am assuming you will be outlining your plan on your personal thread later. I really look forward to reading your plans because I feel like you haven't really gotten a chance to do that since you've been gone. I know you have experience in scouting and the ins and outs of NT competitions, but I would like to hear you talk about how you are going to take us to the next level in game performance and as a community. I must admit I know you mostly as the assistant coach/scout and have seen your great work in those threads. I want to know the other sides of you as a candidate beyond the "scoreboard" you posted in the forums before you left.

Like I have said all along i think there are two worthy candidates. In fact when you posted that you were running i was the first to say you were a worthy candidate. I look forward to hopefully reading what you have to say before the deadline tomorrow.
