Player Watch #19: Xavier Taylor – Pick 11

[Sir Hugh Percy]

Surely a sofa is a couch which converts into a bed.

Isn't that a futon? Or is that a particular style of sofa-bed?

Anyway, I think a sofa is more referring to a more upright and firmer piece of furniture than a couch, which tends to be lower-slung and have deeper cushioning?

I don’t know.

But I’m a beanbag expert and I have an ottoman that I put my feet up on when I’m really firing.

These couch experts honestly. Hopeless..

I don’t think we should be using culturally insensitive terms like Ottoman for putting one's feet on. I prefer upholstered foot support of Turkish origin, or empire-neutral lower-limb elevation device.

That would take the only lasting cultural reminder of the existence of an empire that lasted 600 years.

With initials like XT, I wonder if he'll get the nickname Falcon.
