Dont listen to these guys saying to sell him. It is hard to find an 18 year old hall of famer. You need to single position train him on JS, OD, and Handling. Do Not Sell this guy keep him and you benefit from him

Not to be mean.( Because this is not mean. [But someone people may feel like I am being mean. {Which I am not}]. I am saying this in a calm, courteous, and polite manner.) But, you should probably avoid taking advice from any team that does not at least have a III.something next to their name.

There are many friendly and talkative people that offer advise on these forums, but everyone who has a IV. something, V.something, or IV.something under their team's name means that they have no credibility (outside of the very very very rare instance where a team has purposely relegated after a long run in division II).

So what am I saying. Essentially if someone gives you advice who can't get out of division IV (or has not played the game long enough to have advanced) you should read their advice like this "WAH WAH WOH WAH, WOH WAH WHA WAH (insert Charlie Browns parents voices) because they have no idea what they are talking about OR they are parroting advice they read somewhere else.

Rubbish , complete rubbish , whilst what you say may be true in most cases i cannot condone this elitist attitude as i have seen some very able managers in the lower divisions of countries. One managed our u21 in england , a very talented manager , and with your way of doing things you would advise people to ignore his advice based on the division he manages in instead of his management credentials. Rubbish , give people a chance.

I'm promoting to D4. I expect to be in D3 in 5 seasons. so I am experienced. I am young and still have a lot to learn. Hey newcomer, just do what you think is best. and Tornado Turtles, cool name, but your getting on my nerves a little.

PS I'll be in the NBBA someday........

Um, Mountain Eagles, having future plans does not make you experienced.

You are many things, but you will not find anyone with a working understanding of the word to say you are experienced.

Ok Mr. Blackhawks what you are saying is so puzzling to me. Are you seriously telling me that your U21 team in england was managed by a person who could not figure out how to get his own team out of division 4?

You guys all understand that teams in division IV and V are playing against bots and inactive. The entire point of playing this game is to get out of division 4 and 5. That is where you learn the basics of the game. Basics such as how to set your lineups, how to use the transfer list, and how to use enthusiasm to your advantage.

If you disagree with me, I have have no idea what else to say.

How can you disagree with the point that with the rarest of exceptions (teams who purposefully relegate to start over [please note that this is often a sign of mismanagement]) teams in divisions 4, 5, and 6 either do not know how to play the game OR have not been playing the game very long.

Why would any sane person value the advice of someone who does not know how to play the game or has not proved out their own advice?

My mentor. That's where I get advice from. I know how to play the game easily. I got like 10 enth. Enthusiasm is key to steamrolling in D5. D4 it's all about players. D3 is about winning and managing GS
D2 and D1 are about becoming a king in BB. That's what I know. So fa but still learning.......

Also Mountain Eagles,

Lest you think that I am picking on you, I am not. I am merely calling you what you are. A noob.

You are a noob NOT beacuse you are young.
You are a noob NOT beacuse you have a self promoting newspaper
You are a noob NOT because you try to post advice

Rather You are a noob because you are a noob.
You have played less than 2 seasons.
You are still in division 5, meaning you have not won anything.

This does not make you a bad guy.

You may be this games next prodigy. You just need to wait until you are proven before other people should listen to your advice. You mentioned that you are learning from the Professor. That is good. Go back to school and learn from the Professor and other mentors and soon you will have an advanced degree in success.

I don't care if someone is 8 years old and wants to give advice. All I am saying is that 8 year old better have a history of success.

When I started this game I had a lot of crazy theories. Some of them have been dead on and have led to my quick rise through the ranks of the USA. Many of them led to failure and disgrace. But after proving them out I can say which things worked and which did not. And I can say that from a position of success. If someone in division 4 or 5 wants to know how to get to division 3 I can lay out a blue print of how I got here.

But people in division 5 giving advice is like Junior Varsity players giving advice on how to make it to the NBA. IF you want to know how to improve don't listen to your friends who play JV ask a Pro.

Speaking as someone who never played on the freshmen, or JV team but straight to Varsity for Baseball. I'd like to comment on this...

1. Michael Jordan played on his high-school's JV team, he was not actually "cut" from the team
2. Buzzer Beater doesn't give you the option of taking over inactive teams higher up than D. V to see if you can succeed or demote.
