Interesting.

This seems to be their votes from Week 3. Am I doing something wrong?

[[]eta[/i]: Some of them seem to be votes from the final week of last year.

The gallop pole is a good example, but in football we're more interested in what's called a pee pole....

Prepare for ultimate enlightenment!

You are online. Act like it.

1- Nevar spel thinks korectly. This just adds the hassle of proofreading. Therefore, just type your random thoughts in a manner that can be understood by the masses. If you can understand the first word of this sentence, you are on your path to enlightenment.

2- Second, use fun abbrev. for everything and nicknames too. Do you know what AD stands for and why they don't call him AP? If so, you are near enlightenment...

3- Finally, don't call out people on their fun spellinks, nicknames and abbrev's. Just call "INAKRUT!" when information is not correct. An example includes "OSU won the big 12 south with us this year!" You respond: "INAKRUT! That statement's garbage and makes me wanna puke!"

So there you have it. Information should be corrected, unless your sarcasm meter goes off, but common "lern 2 spel" notes are annoying and time consuming. Wouldn't you rather be talking about THEM STOOP1D MOUNTENEARZ AND DROWNING THERE KITTENS?!?!

:rolleyes:

Ok, hope you feel enlightened. This should definitely be added to the FAQ's.

The guy from Colorado voted us 7th behind KU (#6)

The guy from Nebraska has us at #7 and KU at #3.

I just dont understand the logic sometimes...The coaches are even worse. I think its funny they kicked out the AP vote and kept the coaches.

FYI, on thre Harris poll, here are some strange happenings...agendas??

Anthony Francis - MU #5, OU #7, KU #4
Dr. Charles Johnson - MU #6, OU #9, KU #7
Larry Keetch - OU #7, MU #8, KU #2
Mike Moran - OU #6, MU #9, KU #2
Jim Walden - OU #7, MU #9, KU #2 (former ISU coach??)


I just dont understand how anyone who watched the KU-MU game could rank them higher. The score was much closer than the game actually was. Then, if they watched OU dominate Missouri, how you could put KU that much higher. None of this makes any sense to me and its ridiculous that we have to keep going through all of this nonsense every year.

Nah, I don't think it's cute or a good idea to purposefully mispell things. I think it just makes people think you are illiterate, stupid, or otherwise don't care. What do you think people will think about sooner fans if they come to visit the board here and see a bunch of misspellings? Hillbillies?

Whoever neg'd me for that correction, that was weak.

By the way, I've been registered here for about a year.

Edit: I went and looked and I've actually been here since January 2006. I just haven't posted much until lately.

Coaches know they have a direct influence on who gets into the MNC, so if they're in contention, they will knock down their opponents by voting them down. Then there are others like ***************, or the Bowdens and Belotti, who are just ****ed because they suck at coaching and don't like OU for one reason or another. They should be automatically disqualified, but they aren't.

Maybe I'll start a nonprofit organization and take donations. I'll make sure not to offend people on soonerfans.com though. Seriously I know everybody makes typos, etc like that... so do I. Most of them are so common I just get used to them, but that one stuck out like a sore thumb. It was intentional... got it. Now let's move on.

In case you haven't noticed, pretty much everything on here is tongue in cheek. Thick skin and a sense of humor are required. It's nothing personal.

Or is it personel?

Dangnabbit, he's onto my secret that I whenever I can't spell something, I purposely misspell it so as to add humor to hide the obvious fact that I cannot spell certain names!

Kirk Herbuckeye?! It's because I can't spell Herb-street!

Howard Smellyburger? It's because I can't spell Schnell...and so on.

San Antwan? Dang it, I don't even know how to spell the city where NP and the Alamo are!

My secret cover is soooo blown :( Now I'm going to have to fall back on my troll name Jmorales22 so I'll get a fresh start as a smart, intelligent poster that never misspells words and doesn't have any humor whatsoever!

;) Welcome back. Post more often. Lighten up. It's a friendly community.

Speling is ovarrated

Batman and Robin are polesmokers
