I would say refer to the portion of my speech about real life taking over and where I’m at on that right now. For the club part, I was incredibly disappointed in that forfeit but running with a 3 person lineup was intentional. I had sold off my team in order to finish my arena seating and buy a fancy, expensive arena design(thanks sim city BB!). I wanted to keep my team semi-active and not waste resources during that time. I truly apologize for that forfeit because it ground my gears then and it still does now. If you look at my team before the sell off, they included Nippon U21 trainers and very good players to where I was competitive enough that even with a three player lineup I made the playoffs.
As to alleviating concerns about potential commitment level, as I said in my speech, we are at the end of the high school football season and into playoffs so those will wrap up shortly and this term will have my full attention during the lighter portion of our year.
I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs
