New Amsterdam GM
Hello everyone,
My name is Ryan. I am Kevin and Dan's younger brother. I am new to the game and the platforms that come along with it. However, I am excited to learn and have some fun with it. A bit about myself... I manage a restaurant, have spent over 8 years in the Army and been rocking the bald look for most of my adult life now.
I am an open book, so if you guys need anything just ask.
Looking forward to running the Lions.
Cheers!

Welcome Ryan!
What sort of restaurant do you manage? I've always thought that would be a crazy job.
Also, what did you do in the Army? I'm a certified desk jockey with 8th Army HQ.

Re: New Amsterdam GM
Welcome, Ryan! I assume that at some point soon we will have a Vail in every division.
Best of luck with Amsterdam!

Next up is probably, Tommy - but probably not until at least the 2050 season. He's a quick study, but at 9 months old his GM'ing ability is "more of a projection at this point".
Welcome aboard, Ry!

Welcome Ryan! Amsterdam is a solid team to start out with a low payroll and some solid prospects/players throughout the organization.

I was once an 11-series in an ancient era. I switched over to logistics when I commissioned.
