I was really surprised to see us offer a recruit so early. Can you imagine the drama if he takes as long as John Wall to decide!? :(( 8-} 8-} 8-}
I'm glad to see us offer MP3. Had to figure that was coming, but at least now it's no longer speculation.

No, it just follows in the progressing. It's too confusing to just type Plumlee and too long to type Miles and/or Mason so the abbreviations come naturally. I have done that for years with all the players, but I will sometimes use 1st names or last names for variety. Besides, no matter how you do it, you'll piss off someone on DBR when you are typing players' name over there. :roll: :))

Not necessarily. You can get away with it if you have a suitable link to back up your spelling. :))

Well played.

I gotta admit that one of the folks over yonder did something funny last week by labeling himself or one of the other posters as an"expert" and then linked a prior post and called it a reputable source or something like that. Pretty amusing.

As they say (stemming from a member who said it in complete seriousness) on another board I frequent, "My post is my cite!" :))
