Also, while I am at it, the word is spelled offenSe and losing only has one o. As long as you are calling yourself knowledgeable, you might as well be spelling common words correctly.

It's defense. The Europeans can stfu. This is real football. Btw, your silly little war would have been far over far sooner if they had they sent in the Marines instead of those slogging cowardly doggies.

We were busy fighting the real whack-birds, with REAL logistical problems, being where the fighting was. Your shitty little country was the doggies aircraft carrier, and they almost managed to fuck even that up. Other than your British Royal Marines, I got no problem with all you getting nuked, btw.

D day for the Americans was a cluster-fuck. The arrogance of the Army Generals prevented them from listening to the Marine Generals that had killed so many young Marines through their mistakes in places like Tarawa. Of course, I knew this in 7th grade, but now, we have the informational age, and all you know so much more.

An entire thread dedicated to weather it is more correct to spell a word with an s or a c ? While that may keep some up at night, I find that the content of a post itself is the important thing. As we don't all have the best of educations and to those that do, we need to understand one another rather than pick at each other. Some need to stop being so superior, while others need to stop trashing others just because they were better in school.
It never ceases to amaze me that 30 or 40 years can pass and many still act the same way they did when they were in the 6th grade. Bullies that still remain bullies, drama queens that still see the worst in all things, and sadly those that were scared for life as they were put upon both at school and at home.
Is it any wonder that people loose control and lash out, as we all try to understand why.

So spell as you please, most of us will know what it is that your saying. Don't be intimidated that you might not spell so well. Post and fear not !

And now back to sports !

Rockmolder pointed out that part of his posts here were helping him in his English class in school.

It has been awhile but we have also looked to our friends over the seas to tell us a little about some of their traditions and customs.

As somebody who works for the Department of National Defence I get a bit of a kick out of people saying the spelling is wrong.

I don't know....i read all of this thread, and figured it was "tongue in cheek" and wasn't meant to be mean or a "bully".

Seems it is like the old saying......usually the ones that are calling others bullies are in fact bullies themselves.

I find it interesting the way different countries spell words.
I mean, look at the english spelling of a lot of words. They don't make much sense!
:crazy: ::d
Like "bomb". It sounds like "BOM". And "tomb" should be "tom" then. But "tomb" is pronounced "toom".
So then "bomb" should be pronounced "boom", right? Meaning the bomb already went off!
