Welcome Matt ! I did the same thing too. Everyday I was (and I'm still) on this site reading the football and recruiting sections !!! Being a french canadian from Quebec city, I was shy to join this community because my English is not very good. When I read I understand 99,9% but it's a different story when it's time for me to express my idea on paper !!! But I don't regret it. I've never had a bad comment on my english and as you already know, people on this site are nice and very respectful.
Long story to tell you welcome aboard
