It’s going to be funny when Sumrall turns Ole Miss down to coach the playoffs.

Commas are important.

Well unless you are telling Jesus to improve. In that case carry on.

Well, if we're going down this road can we get a quick tutorial on "affect" and "effect"? Or is this a spelling only day?

I know, it will be tough.

Man, some others in here are really grumpy this AM.

They must be Gator or Ole Miss fans...

Affect = verb [1]
- Means to influence or change something.
- Example: “The rain can affect your mood.”

Effect = noun [2]
- Means a result or outcome.
- Example: “The effect of the rain was a calmer day.”

Shortcut:
If you need a verb, use affect.
If you need a noun, use effect.

*rare exceptions, but this works 99% of the time

Edit, more examples:
Affect: (to influence/change)
- “The rumor that Lane Kiffin will accept the LSU job today has affected the mood of the entire fanbase.”
- “Kiffin’s expected move could affect LSU’s recruiting class immediately.”
- “News of Kiffin’s potential hire affected how other candidates approached the search.”

Effect: (the result/outcome)
- “The biggest effect of Kiffin reportedly taking the LSU job is a surge of hype across Baton Rouge.”
- “One effect of the rumor is that other SEC teams are suddenly on alert.”
- “If Kiffin accepts the job, the long-term effect on LSU’s offense could be yuuuuge.”

- Affect = action (Kiffin’s decision influences things)
- Effect = end result (what happens because he takes the job)

Footnotes:
[1] Noun:
If you can name it/be it, it’s a noun.
Coach
Lane Kiffin
LSU (these two are proper nouns, but still nouns)
Contract
Playbook

[2] Verb:
If you can do it, it’s a verb
OP’s mom (joke)
Accepts (the job) | (note: not except)
Coaches (the team)
Wins (games)
Celebrate (Kiffin coming to BR)
