For some reason getting to be a starter is impossible for me!
It's annoying how they give you no chance when you sit out, cuz my player is better than all of them and still on the bench!
Ideas to be a starter?

do as well as you can in AA, so you get a jump start for AAA. Practice when the coach is around too.

When or how do you go up to AAA? William asked me if I wanted to at one point.

The most important thing as to getting to be a start is doing the practices that the coach is watching wearing the perfume if you can afford it.

Yeah that's a weird event. You don't actually go up until later and you have a chance of getting insomniac.

However, the "Offer Withdrawn" bit cures insomnia if you have it.

You need to always keep a little bit of vitality on the meter so that you can workout whenever you see the coach. You don't want to waste a turn getting vitality, when you could have been impressing the coach. So you need to buy suckers or powerins or something, so you don't get stuck with 0 life and have no options.

Hot Dogs seem to be the best way to improve vitality during a week.

during the season, hot dogs waste a turn so you can only get 2 cmds in wk 4, so i usually get candies, and use them to practice in wk 4. Theyre cheap, so you can buy alot, though you do need to s/l a decent amount when you practice.

Again, that takes a turn.

Use one turn to go supply on candy or powerin, and then you will save many turns from going to recover vitality, and being able to workout instead.

Also, I have noticed that some days I get coach eval when he's not even there.

Well, I get my energy bar to such ridiculous levels, I can afford to waste a turn. >_>

A full energy bar gives 2 full carryover points per turn, so I try to build it up ASAP once I've cleared the Scout's Eval. And I never save/load.

Buy Prince Necklace as soon as possible and make sure to only practice where the coach icons are and there is no way of NOT becoming a starter. Well, unless you completely bomb in the games. And even then it's difficult.
