i am tired of all these people complaining about punctuation...if it hurts you that bad to think a little tiny inkling of sense then you don't even need to be on here.... Just suck it up and deal with it, my god! I know ya'll are gonna try to say it is constructive critisizm...bull crap your just tryin to find something wrong with something to make someone else mad. don't get mad at someone not putting a period or comma were it is supposed to be becuase your wife didn't give you any last night.... just go on with your life and stop being english teachers!
That pretty much sums it up now doesn't it!
When I read a quote like that I think in a broader sense and ask: "Where is personal responsibility, and the ability to take blame and to accept criticism in today's society (especially in our younger generation); all without deflecting it, and blaming the problem on others?"
"Where, where I ask, where?"
The issue, Tyler, is not about English, but about respect (for self and others), growth, dedication, doing what's right, and all that.
Did you ever hear the old saying: "If something is worth doing it's worth doing right?"
That goes for school, team practice, and even posting on a board.
Oh, and Tyler, don't take the criticism too personally, but recognize it for what it is. There are many of us on this board that are a little older than you, and several of us that have children nearing your age. We see your comments and your style of writing as generally disrespectful and lazy; two things we see as chronic problems in today's youth. You and your posts are the lightning rod that draws our concern about these problems...and make no mistake, they are real societal problems!
Good luck to you.
