one of the most important things that you must remember, is that at the end of the day, its only a game. Its designed to be fun!
For the first couple of months you WILL get your arse kicked, but dont worry, we have all been through it. Ballers genrally know when they are playing a new team and 9 times out of 10, wont play you as hard. At the end of the game, they will give you as many pointers and advice as you can probably imagine.
But remember, the most important thing is to not get too upset, enjoy it, and before long, you will start working and thinking as a team and by god, come campaign 2004, you will probably be kicking my arse!!!
