Well here's a shortened speech,

I have put forth some of my ideas and plans in the debate thread just a short time ago so this will be short and to the point.

-My experience. been around since season 3. started in division III, worked up to naismith quickly, spent many seasons in naismith and a few in division II.
-I managed the U21 team for 4 seasons previously and those that have been around long enough I think the majority would say I did fairly well with the limited talent available at that time.
-I have trained players that have gone on to play for Canada U21, Canada, Iran, Malaysia, Al Jazair at one time or another

other ideas and thoughts i have toward tactics, player selection, tracking, forums, etc can be found in the debate thread or feel free to ask me.

short and sweet. I can do a good job with the team and the team has had very good managers in the past and brought the team to a strong point with the current talent available. I would continue to try to ensure that results are obtained accordingly.

First off, a disclaimer. I will have pretty limited time until September so most of my NT work will come on weekends and about an hour or so a night weekdays. I will ask for some help and hopefully get the community a little more involved in the NT process.

Now here's my crack at it.

I started in season 6 and have spent this is my third season in Naismith and I have no plans on dropping down any time soon. I want to run because I wanted to make sure their was an experienced manager in the running and someone who was committed to being the manager of the NT team and I think that I fit the bill perfectly for that.

My main qualifications are that I trained TSA, and believe I was the first in Canada to a) Create an actual PF b) Train a big man in guard skills.

I also have 2 guards who are probably on the pipeline of making the NT in the next few seasons (and of course I would run it by the community before they got called up) and am looking in a few seasons to have at least 3 Canadian NT'ers on my roster.

Other than that, I would like to set the goal all the time as advancing to the world championships and nothing less.

Oh crap. I came across the Canada NT page the other day and was immediately seduced by the big "Register" button. So why should you vote for me? Here's what I'm all aboot.

- I'm good at crucial BB tasks like setting default lineups and remembering my login info.
- I'm a great admirer of the Canadian arts. Any country that blesses us with Snow and Raffi is good with me.
- You also have some great sports teams. Detroit Red Wings ftw!
- I have a good Canadian player, and I was nice enough not to sabotage his training. You're welcome.
- I think RiP is probably a solid guy if you get to know him.
- My most endearing quality? Simple, I'm an American.

So, vote for me.* Remember, at least I'm not Ocho.


*at your own risk

I just saw that Ocho was traded to New England. Maybe he's not such a bad guy after all?

Hopefully they will straighten up his attitude in NE.

He'll go through that rigorous New England athlete test of character and come out a better man, like Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.

Ocho the manager is cool though. You should probably vote for him.
