Hi everybody! I'll be the first to admit that I'm a rookie......a rookie, however, that is trying to learn as much as possible. Please be kind to me LOL.
Thanks for the welcome......keep teaching and I'll keep learning.....may even add my humble opinion every now and then.

Thanks again and God bless!

Pastor Charlie

PC,

Keep your chin up. Like games, these boards can be very intimidating. Filter through and take out what is relavent.

Some may come in trying to denounce everything and anything said that is not in their opinion.

Some will come in and immediately belittle for their own growth.

Some will just criticize every word you put in and quote every written rule there is...even though common sense should prevail.

But most...will give you the respect you deserve and help you through with their many years of experience.

Weed through the blow-hards, and learn who is who. That is the most important factor.

Then learning will be a blast and a bloop!

Welcome Charlie.

I'll let you make your own decisions about the people on this board.

Ahhhhhhhh, fresh meat on the board!

Welcome Pastor,

Take some time and read some of the older posts to see how the board operates. We'll help you out but sometimes, you "get nailed to a cross" to earn your keep (pardon the pun). You'll find it much better here. You'll see some familiar posters and some strange ones. Let me say however, that most of us are regular "joes" who do this as a sideline. Just remember to tell us what rules you are operating under when you post (OBR, FED or NCAA). It also helps if you are posting OBR if you tell us LL, Legion or PRO.

Welcome Pastor:

This board is a microcosm or the real world. Its population is divided into believers and non-believers of everything from faith to the neighborhood play. At times we see conversions and at times there is no middle ground.
(Kind of like a shotgun wedding of a Catholic and a Southern Baptist)

Peace.
