Hi! i love General Manager games, and i would love to be one in the future. 

I'm pretty sure it said two topic posts so maybe this will work

I guess the first gm game I played was the gm mode within the EA NHL games. I favored the mode because I always found it more fun to be playing a team of my own creation rather than the teams that some real gm has assembled. Eventually, I wanted a game with more depth and decided upon the recently released football manager game. The toughest part was probably the fact that I hardly knew nothing about football/soccer and therefore had to learn the strategies and desired players. I enjoyed it enough that eventually, I bought a few other gm games such as EHM, OOTP and that Euro Truck simulator game (does that count?) However, more recently I've acquired more priorities business in my life and as a result was looking for a smore simple game. Eventually I found gameplanhockey through a reddit comment on /r/hockey and have been pretty satisfied since.

What's up everyone?

Hi  looking forward to playing this again.

Looking forward to playing BBall 2017.... though I only really got it not bc I'm interested in the coaching part, but really the recruiting/team building aspect.

Seems to be pretty similar to GPRO

Hi, new to the forum.

hi

I love american football manager style game play.  Ever since I first started really playing madden,  Which was on the PS2 and it was Madden 2001.  Ever since then I have always loved building teams and what not.

Hey fellow gamers, I have been playing sports management games for years, and recently just started getting back into them and seeing what was all out there
 

Hello. Been on here for a while, jus got an account.

I'm with you on FM, that's how I got here. I've got maybe 1500 hours of FM the last year or so, looked for a basketball version, and here I am.

I wish Duke were better in these sims

Bucks over Cavs in round 1.

Go Ducks!

Hello fellow members. I've been a long time player of sports video games (PC and consoles). With the current tournament underway I felt the urge to be playing a college basketball game, so I'm looking forward to this game.

I have no idea what for I had joined this community back in the day, but here's my mandatory post for a download. I have played over ten thousand hours of Football Manager and a few thousand more of Total Extreme Wrestling and Eastside Hockey Manager. Now looking for basketball or college football management sims. Good day lads. 

I have many tactics when I'm playing these type of sports management games, and I wanted to hear what the rest of the community did so that we could all help each other a bit  .
 
Strategies could deal with recruitment, roster settings, etc..
 
Anything helps!
