Knowledge of tactics and training set the others above what I can offer. But nobody out here post better youtube videos so at least a Lambini administration will be entertaining.


A Lambini admin will also be a true crowd sourcing event as I will implement regular conference calls to give those who care and who know the ability to literally have their voices heard. I will be going to the different leagues promoting the u21 program, getting people excited to be involved.


I will also try to use the implied prestige of the post to recruit outside these walls. I try to give this game word of mouth when I can, if I get this position I will attack it with gusto

"Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism." - Kenny Powers

America. World leader in education, finance, business, technology, culture, and of course... Basketball.
America. Back to back champions of the world wars.
America. Silver medalists of BB U21.

GODBEAR is here today to lead this great nation back to the gold. To once again stand on top of the mountain. With cutting edge approaches to tactics and training, we will rise from the ashes of the burnt silver to claim the throne.
As I've said before, we will not be challenged until we reach the universal tournament. We will look down on our world rivals with the contempt that our pure American blood entitles us to do.

Remember that the silver officials are elected by gold managers who are not getting out there and casting their respective vote. So if you believe in the red, white, blue, and gold... Vote GODBEAR! And make America great again!

I'm putting my name in the U21 NT race. Mostly because I'm not liking what I'm seeing with how it's being handled so far. I'm always the type of person who will bet on myself to succeed, so while I have no problem working for/with someone I respect if I don't like how things are being handled I'd rather take the responsibility myself than leave it to someone who I think shouldn't have that responsibility. Because I trust myself to do a good job.

I just made it to D.III this past season for the first time so you can argue about my credentials. But I've been playing this game for a long time (both with this team and with the now-bot Iowa Lightning (28056) basically since S11 with a short break). I'm also a long-time offsite member and I'm certainly receptive to the input of other equally experienced managers with more outward credentials, so with their support I have no doubt I can be successful.

I've already cast my vote for Phyr, because like I said I have no problem with someone else being in charge as long as I respect their leadership abilities. And I have much respect for Phyr as a manager and have no desire to replace him. That said, if you're not going to vote for Phyr, here's why you should vote for me instead:

The only knock against Phyr is that we lost the Finals basically because France's GDP tactics were better than ours. As manager Phyr takes the blame for that, rightly or wrongly. If you're one of the people who questions Phyr's competency because of that one incident, you should respect mine all the more. You can check the offsite's thread if you're a USA manager and see that I publicly campaigned for a last-minute switch to a neutral offense after our decoy was revealed. Most managers agree we very probably win had we run a neutral offense like II instead of LI. So if Phyr's decision-making is suspect because he made the wrong decision, it logically follows that my decision-making must be that much more brilliant because I made the right decision against the collective input of the group. Either way, with the strength of the offsite on our side, if the only concern people have is the France game then one of us must necessarily be the most qualified candidate. I really don't care which of us you vote for but there is no logical reason not to vote for one of us.
