          Minimal OOTP experience, eh? Sounds like he's a good fit for NO. Give us a fighting chance.

                  Agreed. Application approved!

                  Welcome to the BLB Jay! You have a great team to start with. I'll help you deal with Funclown since he's in your division. Don't let his smooth talk and slight of hand fool you.

                        Welcome, my advice is stay away from everyone and don't trade until at least you have one full season under your belt... maybe even two. You're built to win for the foreseeable future and still have a nice farm system.

                        Good luck - pretty rare a team like that ever comes open around here.

                          I remember when Mwetts took over Pittsburgh, he walked into a similar situation. Pittsburgh was finally good and winning. They had a decent few year run then he had to start over.

                          Jay is walking into a great team that is deep across the board. But with expectation comes pressure. Should be the DL favorite but it won't be easy being so green.

                            Don't trade with anyone. Welcome.

                              Not gonna blow it up just yet....


                              But if we start 4-10....heads will roll...

                              haha just kidding. I am going to take the advice and be a fly on the wall. I'll listen to anything while I try and pick up the nuances of OOTP, but don't expect me to be too active in trades or anything for a while.
