That headline is "pull of errors"
At the end of the game he was talking about a Roos player and said "he's got some things to work on such as percentage of ground on time".Dal Santo commentary in the first quarter of North suns today, talking about hair styles, says cornroles instead of cornrows, before being corrected.
Yeah that's pathetic. I'm sorry but for a "professional" commentator that's just not good enough.At the end of the game he was talking about a Roos player and said "he's got some things to work on such as percentage of ground on time".
Gerard is absolutely excruciating with his "Am", makes me want to immediately kill any human or animal in close vicinity. Immediately.Neither Gerard Whately nor Sam McClure can pronounce "um".
"Am" , sometimes "em", never "um".

With respect, that's a bit pompous. Fine lines between regardless and irrespective. There are slight differences in their meanings but in most situations you could probably use either. There are far worse language crimes to commit; this is just nit-picking and that's a needless and unfair assumption to make.Not merely confined to sports but the use of "regardless of" instead of "irrespective of"...not necessarily wrong, but a sign the user lacks a thorough education

Couldn't agree more. I'd put 'the big dance' in the same category. Didn't mind it until it was repeated over and over again in Sam Mitchell's book. Can't stand it now. The chocolates one or 'get the chockies' is a shocker though.one i can't stand is "takes the chocolates." not even sure why, just makes me cringe
Languages keep evolving, I think that one is unfortunately, going to make the grade.As long as they don’t say irregardless
in speech you could perhaps be forgiven for using and overusing the chocolates term, but in a book??? surely publishers et al identified the high frequency and changed the term accordingly in parts?Couldn't agree more.
