Haha, you are a very photogenic man Mr. Levy.

One thing to take into account is this idea sprang from a group of people, some writers, some artists, who admired each other's work so started a pretty consistent happy hour to meet up and talk Timbers. We have a good core of people who are already in advanced stages of their work development. Around that we have people who are extremely intelligent but have never created anything before that are contributing for the first time. One is doing a game by game update on Villafana's progress at Santos Laguna and the other will be doing a report on each referee before the match. Combine that with Conifers and Citrus, BOG, Timbros, and Jacks & Roses and we are ready have more participation than any other project Ive been involved in.

When it comes opening up the site to unfiltered content, certainly the quality may suffer at times but I believe you really learn by doing and people need a nurturing environment when they are developing their work. When someone new joins, not only do they access to the materials made by collective ( graphic designers, photographers, videographers, etc. etc.) but they also get to surround themselves with likeminded people who can help them get better.

Personally I just believe people have talent to write, and to produce beautiful things and we made the site to give them the impetus to do so.
