    Apparently, Gav can neither read nor write.
    I begrudgingly offer my congratulations to the Red Sox. That's a heck of a team. They deserved to win. I can't believe I just said that.
    Can't you, just this once, f*** off?

    We forgive you, given your location and unfamiliarity with colonial idioms. Sox = Socks (obviously some bean-counter for a newspaper many eons ago figured they could save money on ink if they contracted the word!)

    BTW, great series! They were just trying to build up the suspense by letting the Tribe win a couple!!

    Probably the same person that robbed you of the 'u' in the words colour, honour, humour etc...

    Cheapskate!
    Fencing is my only PvP.

    Oh au contraire, that's just pure laziness on our part! (along with not bothering to look up correct spellings of french words, so don't blast me if it's spelled wrong!)

    I agree.

    And Gav this thread was absolutely a worthwhile read. It had to be said.
