This is very entertaining. The academics are winning so far, but it isn't a rout yet!

Slavery and SEC football: two things that the South is/was wrong about.

Is football really that far removed from slavery?

Perhaps we can root out a route to a rout.

It sure doesn't seem like it, does it? Especially the way coaches are paid a ton and the players do all the work.

Perhaps clear that those were references to a legitimate part of the South' history. The confederate flag is still a current issue.

You sound like you want to excise any references to them. Your inference is clumsy.

Slavery, racism, and the confederate flag is a part of Southern heritage. Not an entire part, but that should go without saying. However, when white males are lamenting that subordinates are not addressing them properly like they do in the South, it definitely evokes the imagery. Any hyperbole you attach to that observation is entirely your own.

yep, you just want the last word.

So then is your talent spectating or homophonic malapropism?

Adjudicating in this case.

I can't help but use the honorifics "Bishop" and "President," even when they are on social visits...

How very judicious of you.
