There weren't message boards when DiNardo was coach.
Acronyms have been more common since texting and abbreviations used for same.

Once cell phones became popular, it was just a matter of time before it dumbed down the populous. Those not well read were doomed from the start.

People were texting on their PrimeCo phones in the late 90’s.

I don’t know, but I can’t stand it. It’s even worse using them for players with a number behind the initials. C’mon man. It takes an extra 5 seconds to say who you’re talking about.

Never heard of it or had one.

I love the player abbreviations with numbers. Only legends are to be honored on tRant in this manner: PP7, JB9, JD5...

I remember this being used off message boards.

Not long after someone had the idea to type PP7. It snowballed because most people are stupid, lazy, unoriginal lemmings.
