Ha. Sorry, I can’t help it. My parents never missed an opportunity to correct their childrens’ grammatical errors, and now I have the same affliction.

good vs. well….Belichick screws that one up consistently - his only flaw

less vs. fewer….almost every media member screws this up….rule of thumb: if you can count it, use fewer.

For example,

Capt. Stone has less common sense than I have.
vs.
Capt. Stone writes fewer insightful posts than I write.

me vs. I, who vs. whom….I could go on and on.

Interesting stuff, huh? What’s that? Not really?


I am less of an un-abashed Billy Belichick ball-washer than you are.

And you have been right about fewer players than I have been.
 


Sign the Beast Bill! SIGN HIM!! He's ****ing Better than Keene is now & Ever will be...AssyAssy too probably, who by the way ****ing SUCKED - Again - vs the Fecals' 2nd- & 3rd-stringers.

Captain Stone blasted BB for missing out on Warring and having to settle for the feckin’ second best Bama RB.

(I made that up, but it’s also probably true…Captain Clueless also pounded the feckin’ table for Knox during the same draft - both were overdrafted).

Warring & Knox >>>>>> AssyAssy & Keene, ball-washer.

All 3 are the same until they actually produce. I wouldn't mind him on the PS though. I'm sure someone will sign him to there 53.

 
We need depth in the secondary right?

On a serious note, anybody know if OT Andre Smith is of any use these days? Could be valuable veteran depth… @captain stone




You know, I really never liked Andre Smith as even a top-16 prospect during the 2009 draft, and absolutely didn't as a #6 overall pick (I preferred UVA's Eugene Monroe as the next-best OT, fwiw)... I also would've taken Michael the Blind Side Oher ahead of him, and Oher lasted until #23... Smith just looked like an unathletic blob... His combine & pro day appearances were particularly comical... Actually kinda surprised he's lasted in the league this long... But he's 34 now and is not a viable option at LT, so I'm gonna hafta pass it, as JD Clampett would say.
 
Valuable CB depth? Or is he burnt toast?




Edit: Nvm…but I do wonder if this staff can get better technique etc out of him. Great size/length for the position.

“Pro Football Focus has Desir graded as the 105th cornerback out of 120. He allowed a passer rating of 116.5 when targeted, per PFF.”
