Insulting the grammatically challenged? I'm shocked. Not at all "Politically Correct".

Moderator? Oh, Moderator? Can we delete this thread? Never one of those guys around when you need them.
Umm, wait a minute...

herd-a bunch of animals.

heard-listen with one's ears...past tense.


hair-growth on one's head (or maybe back).

hare-a cute bunny.

I knew the truly humorous would emerge. There are others........

FACT: something you know and can conversate in a forum.

FICTION: something you THINK you know and have no business talking like you do know in a forum.

condescend: 1) to assume an air of superiority

Vance34 -- there is no question that you have knowledge that is helpful here -- and I suppose from your style that you're not dropping in to make friends and influence people. I appreciate your input, but just because many cannot speak with your level of experience does not make their posts fictional or less valuable.

On a serious note, I would be interested to hear about your baseball background.

-PD

Alot bothers me a lot.

FACT: Conversate is not a word.

How does every weatherman in the country get "miles an hour" out of MPH(miles per hour)and then continue to post winds in MPH (which really should be in knots)

Deep!

OH come on. I was just having fun. I assumed that the 1st pet peeve was directed at me.

I sure would like to make friends and I try and give people the truth based on fact and not on hear say.

Hear say is the Kyle Hancock situation and the area code situation. But again, I was havin fun on this thread because I thought it was a fun thread.

Can't you go so many miles in an hour? based on your Miles per hour? Just havin fun again!

Darn, I spelled it wrong it's CONVERSANT. but with my typing I spell many words wrong and leave out letters to.

I don't care for any credit and would just as soon leave my name off the forum. But I will talk in factual terms based on not what I think. But what is correct.

No worries You're right -- we're here to discuss baseball and have fun doing it. This discussion is not directed towards you or anyone else......just a list of pet peeves.

Been a long time since that boy made any sense.

But that's just my two cents.

I have to admit Collikar has made me do alot of editing with my comments...I was always afraid of my English teachers..She has made me a better poster,,,and I know you'll love this Collikar but I was in Murdough in the Fall of 1970. They shut down that dorm for a year following that crew's stay there. "Fight Raiders Fight"

So, if it is RBI instead of RBI's, have I only lost 6 pound instead of pounds? (I wish)

Lived in Weymouth, but walked by Stangel Beach whether I had a class that direction or not.

Swinger, you’d love my English class. We practice concise vocabulary usage at an elevated level. That way, when my students are interviewed (be it sports, academics, arts, news worthy events) they don't sound like the guy in the wife-beater t-shirt standing outside the remains of his trailer after a tornado saying,” It wuz big and loud and I told Ida to git in the tub or she'd be blowed away."

I was a Chitwood Ahh-hmmm, but spent many a hot afternoon on the beach as well.

Gotta love the Red Raider fans!

I have that Big 12 ball for little Collins in my car. Send me your address and I'll send it your way.

BTW - My wife was in Wall/Gates and I am not allowed to talk to those from Chitwood.
