To Chat or not to Chat

[Anthony D Burgess]

Having the right to express your thoughts and views is every persons right. But knowing when and where to comment requiers tact and judgment.

The correct interpretation of information presented is essential. Lack of knowledge and inexperience of a subject results in misunderstanding and misinterpretation.

Intent is also important, many are offended at information presented and would rather attact and criticize as opposed to learn and understand.

Most often the one's offended are a casualty of inexperience on a subject that they are not related to andalso a personal issueat the center of criticism, and that is another issue with in it's self.

The heart of the matter is understanding. When someone is unable to understand a subject fear sets in, in the form of defence. Unable to handle the fact that someone might be more intellegent than them, they set out to attact what, and who they fear.

The Solution...........Knowledge ! Learn, Understand, and Comprehend befor you offer an opion. Equip your self with the proper tools on a subject that is being conversed on. Don't be comdatant, or confrontational, but be open to gain information that you do not possess.

This chat board is a way to share information freely, information about what you do, how you do it, the reason behind it, the pro's and con's, as well as compairisons all in an effort to further the education of them that are intrested in what you have to offer.

If there is a subject/or person that you don't find appealing, just simply move to what you like, this will benefit all and reduce conflict.

I hope this will reduce the membership to the Hater Nation

As I look back through time (1970 ) There was a game out there that every little boy had, well almost every one.

And froma childs view we played this game. We were limited because our minds really couldn't comprehend the complex nature of football.

Unable to solve the mystery of passing, we resorted to alturnative forms of passing that would pacify our wants.

With out adult guidance we formed an identity that we thought was right, and it was right, from the a childs intellectual stand point.

Unable to agree on just how to play that didn't give an advantage to some one we separated and formed leagues where we could be king of the hill and be in control.
Not being satisfied with the state of the game frustration sat in, and into the dark abyss the game went. The mystery of how to play with out giving one sid an advantage remained unsolved frozen in time.

Now more than 30 years later the ice has melted and the unsolved mystery remains.
Now grown up with a greater intellect, and more of an understanding of the adult game of football, it is logical to think that the mystery of this game would finaly be solved.

Unfortunatly male pride, jealousy, selfishness has not given way to comprehention and logic. Many have compromised the integrity of football to satisfy a selfish want.

Subconsciously we want realism, this is evident by face mask, decals, figures, fiedl covers, scale size boards, but there is something missing, something that will elevate a childs game to an intellectual, cerebral sports strategy game that reflects the essences of football.

But like crabs in a barrel, when one trys to move ahead, there is some one that wants to pull him back down to there level.

Life is about growth and learning,moving forward and evolution. Just look around you, you can see evolution of life in clothes, cars, phones, TV, DVD, computers, and even football has evolved from the days of leather helmets to what is used now.

So is it right to restrain the creative minds of this hobby because you don't agree with the path of evolution there on? Or that your offended of compairisons that bring to light what is in darkness.

It is sad to see grown men regress back to a primal state when unable to learn or understand something. Unable to grasp the concept of evolution they attact what they don't understand, or attempt to discredit through bias opion.

Time waits for no one, evolution can't be avoided. You are either part of the evolution process, ot a residue of the past, stuck in time.

Factual practical application is a key to evolution. Sound principle, logic, facts based on a guide, or subject are duilding blocks of evolution.

There needs tobe a focus on logic, intelligence, comprehension, and not on the person. You will lose focus sight of the purpose if you focus on the person and not the principle.

There is a saying , " Don't Hate the Player, Hate the Game ". Well, the game is evolution, the player is the creative minds, so where do you stand ?

It is not about putting something down, it is all about advancement and when you advance, you move away from a starting point, after all................................THAT IS EVOLUTION !
