Which is more pitiful defending SF or taking a cheap shot, being factually wrong about it (in two posts) then trying to argue it's the stronger position? That's even without commenting about misspelling one word in the original 3-word post (which I haven't until now). On top of all that you actually seem interested in him by commenting about his actions or you wouldn't have mentioned his signing.

Somewhere irony wins out over any pity.

You were just plain WRONG.

People did care (contradicting your first post).

They did cover it in the paper and on the radio (contradicting your third post).

Do you live in Sioux Falls? Did you check with anyone there? I don't live there but I was told by someone from Sioux Falls that there was press coverage. He asked me to relay that to you --which I did.

As for "easy target?" I guess I should clarify what I posted above. It's very easy to pick on Sioux Falls in these forums when there isn't an active group of Canary fans to argue with you. I know many very active Canaries fans (for example the entire A-Pole Gang) who probably do care a great deal but don't post much here (or even in their own forums).

And, Yes, I do try to get it right.

Though it doesn't matter, if you look back over my thousands of posts you'll find few typos, grammatical errors, incorrect punctuation or capitalization in my posts. I've never held others to that standard, though others chose to pick on it several times before I even mentioned it in your case (which other started with and overtook the main topic).

And sometimes those differences suggest something. "Defence" is the more common UK English spelling used in Canada, not the US (as in the US Dept. of Defense). That might suggest you're Canadian (from Winnipeg) though in your profile you say you live in the US.

If I truly made a habit of nitpicking people's posts about spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. no one would come here --and rightly so.

It's easy to see that the nerve that has been hit is yours.

It started with others --not me-- picking on your spelling in your first posts. ccmp says you're wrong. You then claim the media didn't cover it. I'm asked by someone in SF to set the record straight and I did (otherwise I would have ignored the topic). You want to change the subject to "which is more pitiful?" You now say that doesn't count since because I'm honest enough to admit I didn't read the papers or listen to the radio (as if I really could living 200+ miles away).

What doesn't "hold water" is your position. You have provided absolutely nothing at all to back it. It's up to you to prove me --and ccmp-- wrong. That may be difficult since I count at least three people in this topic (so far) who do care: ccmp, me and you. ..and that's not counting the people he and I know who also care.
