Not only is the question "mute" but it's also "moot"!

I only wish I had a mute button for coaches

Yeah, it is a bit ironic that Ozzy would criticize using the wrong word...

Great catch and StevenTyler did the definitions!

The word mute is also used to describe an attachment used on brass instruments (horns) to muffle them down or lower the presence of the sound.

And that is exactly what I meant in my comment "therefore, your question is mute!".

This is why I love this board! While everyone out there is running in circles to correct a comment, one or two people like SDS sit there and say "What the f*** did he mean?" Bravo Steve - most people read the post and thought "moot"! You at least had the insight to see that there is a method to my madness!

Now, bring on the drugs!

Regards

I think we all knew it was supposed to be "moot" but right now, your point is exactly that, moot.

Only if you didn't get it. Which you didn't. I'll call the press.

"Mute" has also replaced the non-p.c. term "dumb."
