Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) A lack of capital letters at the beginning of a sentence...yes, it annoys me. Using "any one" instead "anyone" annoys me. Leaving out the word "it"...oh yes, that's annoying. The teams having recourse to deal with substandard performances from players making a lot of money...not so annoying. Maybe you should strive to write better than a 6th grader in public instead. So one missed capitalization and a misspelling leads to you being a prick? He used perfect punctuation, aside from using the wrong "its", on a hockey message board and all you can do is be an ass? Seriously? I've seen way worse stuff on her in terms of grammar and no one points it out. If I see someone butchering there, their, and they're I'll usually reply with a witty comment using all the words correctly, not go ad hominem on them.

I never thought I would be insulted by fellow Red Wing fans because my grammar was off.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At any rate, I was thinking about this and wondering what the players thought of it. Would they be for letting teams get out of bad contracts by burying them, or would they be against it? I'm talking about the players who aren't getting sent places, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're screwing with me? Don't get mad, I'm just messing around. I wasn't trying to be an ass with the OP, either. Well, not much of one. The point I was trying to make is that it doesn't take a lot to annoy me. This particular topic is not one of those things. And, since I'm here, Ad Hominem, isn't really the case in this situation. I pointed the OP's spelling mistakes, but I did not use those mistakes to prove that he is wrong in his opinion. Okay, now I'm being an ass. I'll stop.
