Good follow up question.

@Jason, sometimes it is about who you know. Regardless of the outcome of the election I know you are going to be involved and I hope that you use your connections to still try and make this happen regardless.

Do you understand the financial stress of holding onto a Medrano or Bronson? Saying you'll put more NTers on US squads is easier said than done, especially with the weird phenomenon of people paying more for US players.


Absolutely. It's brutal. People always say, "Oh just get the NBBA teams to buy all our NT players, they have the money". Truth is, we don't. I bought a $284k Colombian NT guard halfway through last season. I just had to sell him because it just wasn't going to financially work if I still wanted to be competitive and stay in the NBBA. The salaries make it impossible for most teams to have a $250k+ guy and still compete for a title.

I completely agree that not many people know anything about my first question...which was, "What do you know about running a NT?". There is probably only a select group of guys that have this ability, IMO, and I believe we have to make sure one of them is our next NT manager. That was the point of my original post in response to a post by Jason. I want someone who knows, not someone that "kind of" knows or wants to grow into the position.



I know 6 seasons' worth of running an NT :-)

By the way, there's way too much Michigan and Ohio State names/teams on this thread. As a Penn Stater, it makes me a bit queasy (though, uh, hey still vote for me!) haha.

I don't see how you can expect to win games at the NT level when I've seen you yelling at your team on USA chat, and another thing, namssor and GM-Jason have better track records, so yeah... not voting for you.

As long as BB doesn't change the division names to Leaders and Legends!

Can we please have the "Cannot rate multiple posts by the same user in 12 hours" rule removed in this thread?

To all the candidates: If you had 110 skill points to assign to a player (excluding free throw and stamina), how would you allocate them to best suit our team’s needs?
