odd hyperbolic and pointless rambling aside, it's been 36 years. To quote Kingspeed, learn the game, then post.
You assume too much. Perhaps he was defining the thread's ontology, identifying the thread as pure gheyness. This explanation also makes said sentence complete, as opposed to a fragmented direct object conjunction. Yes, I hear zebras. What's your point?
"It's" means "it is." Never anything but. This kind of thing is why the linguistics experts get paid the big bucks!
Who are you to dogmatically declare the poster's intent? You have the option to interpret based on the assumption that he used correct grammar, but you choose to assume error instead. That's a reflection on you, not him. I respect BlazingGiants, and I want to pass it on!!
Maybe this" it's" feels like an "its" all of its existence. We should respect it's feeling and recognize and use it as an "its" eventhough it was created as an "it's"
Well, we are "Trail Blazers". I applaud the effort (although I think we all should have civil unions, with marriage being a religious covenant), but wonder why a sports team would involve itself in politics? We have a separation between Church and State (i.e., there shall be no state-sponsored religion). How about a separation between politics and sports?
I vote for separation between sports and religion. No more locker room prayers, no more thanking god after a victory, no more Tim Tebow genuflecting, etc. Seriously, if there is a god, I hope he has more important things to worry about than who wins a specific game - and why would he chose to favor one team over the other? God could make a killing betting on the games and his teams would be unbeatable in a fantasy league. BNM
Most religious players don't believe that God has a rooting interest in the game. They generally thank God for the gifts that allow them to perform at that level, giving Him the credit for their ability, rather than claiming the credit for themselves.
