Wow. Some of you have serious issues with Miles.


I don't have an issue with it. Just pointing it out. I can give two shits about his vernacular as long as wins games.

so in 1978 Roget had desire included, but has since removed it??


I just pulled up Roget online and that was the definitions under the noun form of "want." Whether that's changed or not from previous versions, I have no idea.

The Want is akin to The Force from Star Wars. May The Want Be With You young Russell Shepard.

Nah. Most of the idiots bitching about it are serious.

Waaahhhhh "he gets paid $3M a year. He should be able to talk correctly"

Waaahhhhh "why can't we have a coach that can speak normally? "


You know they're out there.

I didn't read this entire thread, fwiw.

A "want" is a commonly used term in economics. Miles has a degree in economics.

Here's the wikipedia entry for a "want":

quote:

In economics, a want is something that is desired. It is said that every person has unlimited wants, but limited resources. Thus, people cannot have everything they want and must look for the most affordable alternatives.

Is that...

Manor, as in, a very large home? OR...

Manner, as in, a way of doing things, certain modes of action?
