Right, it's not as if all this has an effect on whether the team wins or looses.

I think I started this thread at the right time.

I think a certain poster could use a tutorial on the proper usage of the words lose, loose and loss. Anyone feel up to the challenge?

Re: For the record, it's Wittman, not Whitman
Out in appalachia, a lot of people use "ideal" for "idea", as in "I have an ideal to make this work". A doctor friend even does it. Drives me frickin' bananas.
The one I had to rid myself of was "irregardless". Can't really have a lack of a lack of regard.

Making extreme statements like "only" sounds like there are "no" Jokics in this draft? Jokic is an engine that was drafted in the 2nd round. Always a chance to see diamond dropped by sloppy burgular after a theft.

Tim and Adam will bring their Washington Wizards hats to the game.
Written English needs an overhaul as we get further into the "post-literate" age. If we went to a common spelling of "they're," "there" and "their," we could cut misspelling significantly. I think all three should be spelled "thare."
lol.. I think that is already reserved for ... them thare hills.
Hey, can we change the title of this thread to... Spelling Nazi's Gone Wild. Maybe the added hits will bring up ad revenue.

Ouch. Bringing it home thare aren't you.
I think we need to go to a str8 fenedic spelling of everything. As long as you can read and follow the thoughts that someone is trying to communicate, well.... Mission accomplished. Thats what words and simbols R used 4
2B or not 2B. That is the ?

An inaudible point. Hmmmmm.
