Soccer IS exciting. Really.
For all you naysayers, a fight broke out at my women's league game on Monday night. I missed the game due to work obligations (darn SEC). No details yet, but I should get them at tonight's game. I do know that the woman from our team who got red carded is HOT.

Wrong. I can and have had major grammatical errors in my posts, which are admittedly entirely trivial.

Honey, that makes no sense. Are you hung over?
ETA Oh, I see, "which are admittedly entirely trivial" modifies "posts" not "major grammatical errors." Since when are major grammatical errors not entirely trivial?
Now you can add bad drafting to your list of entirely trivial sins.

Speaking of watching OLN, I was at the neighbor's house last night (who commented on my allegedly growing backside) and she was watching the tour. When I told her I was a bit surprised to find her watching it (since I've known her 25 years and have never even heard her utter the words bike, cycling, lance, or "the Tour") and she responded "Well, we are British". She said this quod erat demonstrandum. My question to you...I wouldn't really place the English with the rest of hte European cycling nuts...is saying "we're British" like saying "we're French" in response to a comment of surprise in following the tour?

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

I didn't see it, but if you're saying they crossed at the same time (more or less), how could they get the same time if they started two minutes apart?
How does Lance have only 1:25 on Basso if he finished two minutes ahead of him?

They got the same time in yesterday's stage. If you're going to talk about today's TT use the super secret spoiler ink [SSSI] Lance lapped him in the TT. I haven't seen the updated overall standings yet. Lance should have several minutes on Basso since he beat him today by at least 3'30". [/SSSI]

They'll be stronger for it. If they're way behind on time, it probably won't matter because they're changing continents next week and surely everyone will be on the same flight.
Hard to tell everything that happened at the airport in yesterday's show, but Jim and Marsha looked like they thoroughly deserved their fate. Dumb-asses.

Are you fucking kidding me with this post? Do you only read your own goddamned posts or something? What the fuck have we been discussing for the past several days.
I fucking hate you with the passion of a thousand burning nuns.

Darling, for the record, I did not say "woman" in response to "female" because I view it as a "trivial" error, but rather because it grates on me when people refer to women as "females." It just sounds demeaning to me, although I don't think you meant it that way in your fembot post.

Given Millar's result this year, it seems like a rather tenuous connection.

And it's an adjective clause, which always immediately follows the noun it modifies. There should not have been any confusion as to what word the clause was modifying.
