Okay, so what happens when James runs out of teams willing to work with him? Players are already hesitant to sign for him, and coaches didn't seem eager to go there. Can he eventually get to a point where he has to hang up his hat and become a spectator?

FBL wouldn't be the same without James. Let's hope it never comes down to that.

Pretty much yes. I have to draw the line somewhere I think with someone not being very good at the game and everything I am doing I am trying to be somewhat objective. I recognize a lot of the players/coaches talk to him like shit, but then again he hasnt proven himself as a GM still...only a horrible one with bad decision making. It wasn't something I'd have anticipated that someone would make so many bad decisions and not really learn from it and I like James' enthusiasm (as well as being a nice chap) so it's a tough call, but one I hope I dont have to make.

I understand that. I'm bad at decision making big time. Although I do think I can salvage Boise. It'll take time and I botched it up pretty good yesterday but it'll work. Just have to keep from getting fired...again.  :)

James, everytime you post in the OOC your perception of "yourself" is just as apparently off key 'in game' as GM Franchise as it is 'out of game' as yourself lol.

Now I know how Franchise feels every game.  Speak your mind and you get singled out for it.

My advice, James, is to go with a rookie and sophomore team and let them grow together. Heck, I'd even go as far as getting a head coach new to the game.

Ohhh snap. It's getting feisty with Lights.

That is my plan and it's already in motion. As you can tell I'm motivating the rookies and am going to build around those five. Hoping to keep the motivation going all season and keep it going into next season.

Yeah, but that means you have to move pieces of your team around which could potentially affect chemistry and the season.

This is true. This is what led to Boise falling apart last season.
