haha, this shit really pisses you off, doesn't it? it really doesn't help your argument when you just lost another commit after his in-home with Chizik, plus you still have guys on the fence. again, it is my opinion that AU's 09 recruiting class will be fucked up judging by what is happening now. of course some guys will stay on, and two have even signed their LOI's already. i didn't say every single guy will bolt. but alot of the blue chippers and guys that yall were excited about have gone and i don't think they will come back. its amusing to see just how pissed off you get when somebody has an opinion the negative of yours and your argument isn't working out so well. the only thing Chizik has accomplished so far is two guys who signed in 2007 have signed their LOIs. what is your explanation for Johnson just a few days after his in-home with Chizik saying he will sign with Miami? AU's 09 class is going to be fucked up. its not a big fucking deal. you think if CNS walked out the door right now ours wouldn't be fucked up? it happens when coaching changes happen, especially this close to signing day. of course there is no verifiable answer at this point you fucking moron......thats why its my opinion. a forecast, if you will. an epiphany, whatever you want to call it. just the same way alot of people here just knew hiring Chizik was the end to AU football as you knew it. it was their OPINION. you are a total moron, and if you took your head out of your ass for about 2.7 seconds, you would realize that. my opinion is you will have a fucked up 09 class, and these guys dropping like flies are helping prove me right so far. i didn't see you totally shitting the bed when your fuckbuddy Kaos first said that hiring Franklin was going to be a disaster, or during the season as Franklin helped prove him right. imagine that, somebody giving their opinion on a message board....what a crazy world we live in.
Runswithscissors = clown. He writes like a freaking 5th grader. I gave up reading the post above after one sentence and then I quickly scanned down and noticed he didn't start one sentence with a capital letter. Don't call me the Grammar Nazi or anthing, I use words like "ain't" and "alright" constantly, and I don't know all the rules for using the semicolon, but I use it constantly. RWS writing is a)elementary or b) quickly thrown together in frustraton.
With that said:
Rule 1. Capitalize the first word of a quoted sentence.
Examples: He said, "Treat her as you would your own daughter."
"Look out!" she screamed. "You almost ran into my child."
Rule 2. Capitalize a proper noun.
Example: Golden Gate Bridge
Rule 3. Capitalize a person's title when it precedes the name. Do not capitalize when the title is acting as a description following the name.
Examples: Chairperson Petrov
Ms. Petrov, the chairperson of the company, will address us at noon.
Rule 4. Capitalize the person's title when it follows the name on the address or signature line.
Example: Sincerely,
Ms. Haines, Chairperson
Rule 5. Capitalize the titles of high-ranking government officials when used with or before their names. Do not capitalize the civil title if it is used instead of the name.
Examples: The president will address Congress.
All senators are expected to attend.
The governors, lieutenant governors, and attorneys general called for a special task force.
Governor Fortinbrass, Lieutenant Governor Poppins, Attorney General Dalloway, and Senators James and Twain will attend.
Rule 6. Capitalize any title when used as a direct address.
Example: Will you take my temperature, Doctor?
Rule 7. Capitalize points of the compass only when they refer to specific regions.
Examples: We have had three relatives visit from the South.
Go south three blocks and then turn left.
We live in the southeast section of town.
Southeast is just an adjective here describing section, so it should not be capitalized.
Rule 8. Always capitalize the first and last words of titles of publications regardless of their parts of speech. Capitalize other words within titles, including the short verb forms Is, Are, and Be.
Exception: Do not capitalize little words within titles such as a, an, the, but, as, if, and, or, nor, or prepositions, regardless of their length.
Examples: The Day of the Jackal
What Color Is Your Parachute?
A Tale of Two Cities
Rule 9. Capitalize federal or state when used as part of an official agency name or in government documents where these terms represent an official name. If they are being used as general terms, you may use lowercase letters.
Examples: The state has evidence to the contrary.
That is a federal offense.
The State Board of Equalization collects sales taxes.
We will visit three states during our summer vacation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been subject to much scrutiny and criticism lately.
Her business must comply with all county, state, and federal laws.
Rule 10. You may capitalize words such as department, bureau, and office if you have prepared your text in the following way:
Example: The Bureau of Land Management (Bureau) has some jurisdiction over Indian lands. The Bureau is finding its administrative role to be challenging.
Rule 11. Do not capitalize names of seasons.
Example: I love autumn colors and spring flowers.
Rule 12. Capitalize the first word of a salutation and the first word of a complimentary close.
Examples: Dear Ms. Mohamed:
My dear Mr. Sanchez:
Very truly yours,
Rule 13. Capitalize words derived from proper nouns.
Example: I must take English and math.
English is capitalized because it comes from the proper noun England, but math does not come from Mathland.
Rule 14. Capitalize the names of specific course titles.
Example: I must take history and Algebra 2.
Rule 15. After a sentence ending with a colon, do not capitalize the first word if it begins a list.
Example: These are my favorite foods: chocolate cake, spaghetti, and artichokes.
Rule 16. Do not capitalize when only one sentence follows a sentence ending with a colon.
Example: I love Jane Smiley's writing: her book, A Thousand Acres, was beautiful.
Rule 17. Capitalize when two or more sentences follow a sentence ending with a colon.
Example: I love Jane Smiley's writing: Her book, A Thousand Acres, was beautiful. Also, Moo was clever.
