Defense! Defense! Defense!

I can't take it anymore. I'm buzzed and irritated. Seriously people. It's spelled D-e-f-e-n-S-e not Defence. There's no actual fence. C'mon. How old are we now? Might as well not make ourselves look like preschool asses, and spell correctly. That's why we have Spell Check right?

 

Whooo! Go Defence! I mean Defense! Here we go Steelers Here we go!

 

So dumb.

 This was supposed to be a fanshot but with the liquor I couldn't find the link, Anyways, how bad ass is Mike Tomlin. I just wake up every morning knowing that My favorite team has the absolute most bad ass coach to ever walk onto a field with a puffy black jacket. What a BAMF! So sick. I want that Jacket. Goodnight Steel nation.

I take back my previous statement

and exemplify you because I didn’t know that it was spelled defence down under. I learn something new everyday. It wasn’t towards anyone, but rather the whole football community that still has trouble with that word. And yes, spelling errors are my little slice of hell. Lol

Lol

Its funny that you rant about grammar and then misuse the word ‘exemplify’. :)

I have that jacket

It's true what they say...Even the NFL's Big Wigs hate the Steelers. On the plus side, I can now tell my future grand kids about Hines Ward and how the NFL made rules because of him. Roger Goodell, you make me sick.

I wore it almost every day during the winter. It's got huge ass pockets.

Also got me the Nickname George Castanza.

hahaha

I put a post up a while back and half of the comments were about my spelling of defence. I am Canadian we spell it defence, just like in New Zealand, Australia, England, Scotland, Ireland….

Yeah

uh, that was me making a stink. But, I’m pretty sure I’m over it now. Just more evidence that one should neither drink and dial nor drink and post. Friends don’t let friends…..

I feel stupid

Just didn’t know it was different for different sports. I should try and get out more often. Lol

Basil, evolution, and driving on the wrong side of the road.

Don't worry about the haters. Haters only hate.

Ok

If we are talking about soccer (futball) lol we’ll call it defence. If we are talking about football (American football) we’ll say defense.

Can we all just get along?

I want the steelers to play the London game so they can have the #1 defense and the #1 defence. First ever.

Don't worry about the haters. Haters only hate.

Wow

not looking to hate on anyone. It’s all about love here. Ya i did a little drinking and posting, but who hasn’t? What else am i supposed to do when I’m not drinking and watching football? Answer: Drink and talk football. But yes the Jacket is going to be world famous if Tomlin keeps wearing it. How much does it run? I’d love to get one but really don’t see the practicality of it given I live in San Diego. I already got enough crap for wearing my Steelers Letterman to the Colts @ San Diego. If I do get one I will be wearing the aviators and go as Tomlin for Halloween ;)
