Since I am trying to become a FC, please leave any feedback that you can, what I should do differently next time, things I can do to improve the article, etc. Thanks in advance. I appreciate the support!

Brian, Congrats on your number two status. I often wondered why you were not #two to begin with, but then I remembered the odd ordeal I went through bouncing back and forth to number one. You are talented. A valid community member and that works for me. I wish we could get another of your caliber on board to solidify our top writers. Till then you and I can carry the weight. Let me know if I can do anything to assist and support? Take care and Go Broncos : )
