thanks for ripping into me for a simple spelling error on definitely.....that was obviously the point of my post on what eddings should have said. Also, i will stick by the FACT that irregardless is still a word. Even in your beloved american heritage dictionary. you can either visit their website, or the website of any other reputable dictionary (oxford, merriamwebster, etc.) and you will find the word "irregardless"
If you pick up the new version (2004) of the american heritage dictionary, you will find that irregardless also somehow made it into the print version, with a number of other "new" words. Get with the times. Language changes, and unfortunately, your disregard of this fact has ruined the original post about baseball umpires and the media. And please never send me an e-mail again, unless it is about something worth talking about, like baseball.
