So what are acceptable replacements? If you call for a ban of terms, you must give us some replacement terms that will not offend you.

Good, awesome, fast, powerful, drives his legs, sound tackler, good technique, refined skills, tough, quick, slasher, jumper, cutter, grinder, finesse, soft-handed, sure-handed, agile, quick feet, smart, team player, can play centerfield (for safeties), etc.

All of these are acceptable.

You do realize he's not actually from Ohio, right (hence his avatar and sig, date joined, etc.)?

Can we add "talent" to this list? Just fricking say that you've recruited well. Stars mean nothing once a player gets on the practice/game field.

Your welcome. It was a slow day with the lack of an LSU game and all. I do what I can.

I have to say any form of "that was beast" or "he is in beastmode" is way worse than "special" and "explosive" on the rant.





thanks, stout, I forgot how beast saying "that's beast" was.

Doc, I love all the idiots that actually think you're an OSU fan, just because it's listed as your favorite team. Kind of funny.

Yeah. And I almost never do it either. 95% of the time I've got the LSU icon flying high. I just don't consider North Texas worthy of showing my colors (especially when my username is LSU's first football star, I'm showing off 2 LSU trophies and our current starting QB, and I've got a sig quote about beating Auburn). I feel like I can root for Ohio State for a week and still be okay.
