Of course you can ask.

And that is a really god question.
On the one hand side it is related of course to me. I had some games where i put not enough Enthusiasm in or i underestimated my opponent, for example in the second round of last years cup against Austria. That is of course my mistake. In addition, i am a supporter of the theory: "Base offense can a good offense", especially if you have 5 really good offensive weapons (IS and JS 19+ with a fitting JR). This was and still is a really controversal discussion. And some manager think a complete different way. And I guess I got a negative vote for my job from them.
On the other side the German community is a quite special one. Everything below the World or European Championship not accepted, kind of So being German NT Coach is i guess one of the most challenging in the world - at least it feels like. If you loose a game or like me putting the base offense in my first game as NT Coach, there is always a lot of discussion and the more discussion there is , of course the more trouble you can create yourself. But I stand to my point and meanings and I don´t fear a good discussion. I love it. Since You can always learn something new.

So to summarize: 57% to the end is a good result. The "Great" Nachtmahr was in stint as German NT Coach at the end well below 50%. I don´t know if you know him, but he is kind of the Germans Chief analyst of BB

Writing speeches (to be honest what can we say that hasn't already been said by the others?) and managing a team are really different skillsets.
For a NT coach, being the data processing type is quite important in my mind, being able/willing to spend hours collecting data and find ways to analyse it. The other thing is writing BB mails to managers, but that's also different than writing a speech.

P.S.:

Additional, I hope the time difference is not the reason for not voting for me. So .. vote for me

P.P.S.: It looks there is now some life in the NT thread - finally the boring time is over

Hmmm .. that is really sad ... for me But I know it is difficult to win against a player from the country ... so it is okay for me if you vote yourself. I would do the same - if I can
