Not when you are supposedly a top 24 team.

Did I ever say that? I had a feeling this team was going to struggle early. You just dont replace a Kevin Criswell and Larry K and expect to be a top 25 team

Still doing better than you kitties

El Gato said you have been posting that UM should be top 25. Maybe he was not being serious. If you guys weren't doing better than us, I would be freakin' amazed. You had a lot of thunder after last years NCAA's, and we are rebuilding, to put it nicely.

What about your Cats? They seem to be doing well for themselves eh? Or I guess getting blown out by 30 night in, night out is exceptable in Bozeman.

You gonna throw the "I dont care about basketball" out there?

1. to exclude; leave out: present company excepted. (from Dictionary.com)

I think you meant acceptable, which means satisfactory or agreeable. That must be some more of that craptastic dUMb education.

And this level of elequence, spelling, punctuation and capitalization -- courtesy of Thunder Cat -- must be taught at the highest levels of studies at good ol' msmoooo:

There not jokes VG. There Facts.

I didn't know someone could screw up every possible formating and style rule of the English language in 6 words or less.

Did you mean formatting?

Maybe you're for all the Cats fans mating with your women.

All hail Cledus, King of Correction of the English language on all Message Boards.

One of these days I could possibly give you a period of instruction in "The Difference Between Contractions and Possessives" but you would probably have the thousand-yard stare after a few minutes.

Besides, it hardly seems fair that you rip on a Cat on a Cat message board for using improper grammar if you can't even spell a fairly simple word correctly.

After you've finished teaching Grizin that lesson, perhaps I'll give you one on the proper use of a comma.

There are several universal rules of posting on message boards, one of which is the following: correcting other posters' grammar is lame, but if you're going to do it, your own style and grammar must be impeccable.

Okay, I give up. Show me where I screwed up a contraction or a possessive.

And as long as you're being a nit-picky ninnie, I'll play along also. What exactly are these:

Cats fans

Are those fans of people with multiple cats? Many cats who are hot and need many fans to stay cool?

See how ridiculous this is? That's why most people let a simple spelling or grammatical error go on message boards.

Do you mean the lack of comma use since I didn't even use one? I believe the comma is optional if I'm thinking of the same thing you are.

Even if it's not, third grade spelling and grammar are mutually exclusive.

Besides, it's a smack board is it not?

The rule I am referring to is not optional. A comma is needed whenever two independent clauses are connected by and, or, but, for, or nor.

Even if it's not, third grade spelling and grammar are mutually exclusive.

I don't know what you mean by this.

I love it when people resort to the "but this is the smack board" defense.

Yes, Cledus, this is the smack board. You posted "grammar error" smack (which is still smack, albeit weak smack). I responded with smack of my own (mocking you for correcting others' grammar, while snidely pointing out that your own is not perfect). I'm failing to see the problem, though. Does the fact that this is the smack board mean that no one is supposed to respond to you when you post smack?

No kidding.

Apparently, there's a bigger grammarian than me.

One funny thing about this is the guy I was originally smacking, Swilly, didn't have any firepower to hit back.
