Starting a New Thread to Rejuvenate the program. I will be personally reaching out to experienced managers to get us a deep list of mentors so we can quickly assign people to help new guys out and increase retention.

To the Experienced Managers: Please BB-Mail me if you are interested in being a mentor for new USA players. I will help facilitate matching you up with mentees. If you want to directly grab mentees just shoot me a BB-Mail with who they are.

To the New Guys: Feel free to BBmail me with questions or requests for a mentor. You may also post either requests or questions below and we will make this an active running discussion on getting you guys up and running as fast as possible.

I would like some mentoring.

I'm in my first week at BB. I don't necessarily need hand holding but someone to give pointers and share their own newbie experiences would be nice. I think I've done a pretty good job trimming the fat on my squad and setting my lineups. The all-important aspect of training is where I could probably use a little help.

Saw my first game live last night and participated in the chat. Lots of very friendly helpful people in there. It was a great first experience.

Of course anyone can receive a mentor. However getting to the NBBA takes a lot more than just tips from a Mentor. I'll be in touch w/ you through BBmail

I'd be really interested in some guidance as well, specifically around maximizing arena revenue, learning everything and anything about training and training regimens, and advice for the offseason draft.

I'd like some mentoring. My 2nd season but I'm still worried I might not advance out of D5.

Have you seen Edju's performance in DI. He's been a relic since the game became competitive. I'd prefer to be mentored by a DV manager thats brand spanking new than Edju.

(And if you really want a BB as a Mentor Check out 4/27) http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/20386383/boxscore.aspx

There are vile, vile things that I am capable of doing to you.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

I'll take Slightly Hyphy because he said "regimen" instead of "regime" and I'd like to popularize that
And I'll also take Lots because it doesn't seem fair to skip him.
