I will , sorry for the late mail.

Okay I will put up the extra candidates.
But, this year was very obvious who
was supposed to make the team and who is not.

Generally the best choices are fairly obvious, still it would have been nice to have been asked for input. How is the community supposed to grow when no input is asked for?

On second thought, full Depth chart on the offsite open for discussion

For all the bluster of the need to do this and that on the off site
if 3 people post there in an entire season that would be a lot

Well how do you expect people to post in the offsite when nothing is being put up? I check the off site regularly, but I feel quite disengaged when the roster has already been locked in and we have to ask to see all the prospects since, maybe, another manager's view would provide extra perspective? I'm not knocking sparky or anything, but if the team is going to be run in a one man show type of fashion then don't expect there to be much engagement with other managers.

Oh please
And they write about my bitching and complaining.
He was voted in on Tuesday morning.
The roster was posted several hours later.
Your complaint was addressed right here and the rest of the depth chart was posted right away.

Advice was given and it's up to the manager after that.
If he doesn't get results you can replace him but I can tell you from what I've seen, he's doing a lot better job than people who are training the players on this team.

Game plan was posted Sunday at 7:33 a.m. and so far it's the only post on the subject.
So I'm not knocking you just the way you're not knocking Sparky.

Not to mention he's been to Naismith 3 times now...........Just sayin'

I don't think he is questioning the job he has done or the time frame it was done in. I think he is just commenting that it is tough to start a conversation when things are already decided. The team was announced as 'final' so even if people had comments there was no reason to raise them.

Personally I see the interest from the Canadian community faltering big Tim and no this is no Sparky or any other managers issue. It is an issue with interest. When people feel engaged and that their opinions matter they stay interested. When the game leaves you no decisions to make it becomes pretty dull.

This is the first time I've complained about anything other than the fact that the roster was final and we had no input.

As beanerz said the fact that the roster was "final" so... what should we post in the offsite then?

I already said I wasn't knocking sparky so I have no idea what you even bring that up. I am simply saying that if whom ever the manager may be posts a roster and calls it final, what point is there in the community to get involved?

Your initial complaint was valid.
however, that final roster lasted less than a day.
He posted quickly that he'd made a mistake and invited all to come and look at the rest of the depth chart.
All I'm saying is that your last complaint considering the time frame is petty.
The community was indeed invited to get involved and as usual for the most part decided against it.
Go to the off site and these posts and have a look.
The last one only serves to divide.

We do this every year.
Somebody posts an insult and it becomes World War III
This thread is for helping the U21.
So please go to the offsite so that my posting isn't pointless.
Because I that you guys don't care about the U21 and that you guys
prefer trying to be the tyrant and to make me look bad.

So last year I hardly got voted in by a vote.
I didn't even get a full term and you gave a guy in DIII 10 votes.
So I hope that you guys can stop making me look bad and go bother somebody else because I enjoy the U21 and you guys should let the guy in charge be in charge.
I will continue to post on the offsite.

So since this is the U21 thread, no more of the insult posts
with nothing to do with the U21 will not be posted.
That will be in BB-Mail.

See, now that's insulting too. I could run U21 with my eyes closed.
I would just have to find a braille computer.
Let's band together as a community and prepare for each game the best we can. (and train better as well)
