Charles's Bio

Tough call, what to say here. Long-time fan of what were my "hometown" teams - Boston Celtics, Boston Bruins, New England (Boston) Patriots. Been through the high times (80's of the Celtics, 00's of the Patriots) and the lean times, and things look to be going good again.

Hey, Charles!

This is the capstone in my series on the New England Patriots. Of course, the final position on the list was quarterback. I'd love if you'd read and give some feedback!

Thanks again for all your input!

With the NFL season around the corner, I have decided to start some fantasy rankings, first with the top five quarterbacks in the fantasy world. Who will earn the top spot on the rankings? Appreciate any feedback, especially it being my first fantasy article.

Hey, Charles-

Thanks for continuing to provide supportive feedback on my articles! This is the next in my series on the New England Patriots, where I go in-depth at the linebacker position. I'd greatly appreciate your input on the matter!

Great article. One thing, though, when you choose "Manually paginate," you actually have to insert page breaks, or the computer will do it for you.

Charles,
I have been writing a series taking an in depth look at the Bills, their offseason moves and how I think it will affect their chances at a Super Bowl run. I would like you to have a look at it and let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Lance
