This. He doesn't get "rewarded" by being able to watch the game now. He gets to leave the facility.

[just another ref]

Have had a significant incident with a scorer one time in 28 years. First call I made against the home team when I went to report it she was squawking about the call just like everybody else in the bleachers around her. I'm not a finger in the face kind of guy normally, but it was called for here. I got really close and cut her off in mid-sentence. "Lady, you are not going to sit at this table and call the game. Do you understand that?" She turned six shades of red and spent the rest of the night apologizing to me.

This is a discussion board that hinges on discussing opinions amongst other things. If you give your opinion, then you should know fully well that you open up yourself to others critiquing your opinion.

Opinions aren't necessary equal. And punctuation would certainly help your presentation.

When my daughter emails me, her emails lack capital letters. I wish that she would get that shift key fixed on her keyboard.

Since we have decide to become grammar police I might suggest to you that starting a sentence with a conjunction is not the best way to tell someone their punctuation is lacking. While not strictly forbidden, it is considered acceptable only in informal written communication.

Since when are we formal here?

We are, however, a step above ten-year-olds text messaging. I hope.

And that "rule" has largely been put to rest.

Perhaps we are not that formal. It is still ironic to point out another's lack of grammar using sentence structure that isn't widely accepted.
