        Good news and bad news for The_Douger:

        You beat parrothead. That is a remarkable accomplishment.

        You beat him by picking Utah. Choke on it, buddy.

          Even I refrained from sinking that low. Sometimes one must take one for the team Douger. As YOhio would say, Eat Shit and Die!

          Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

                You ESD too. Channeling my inner DH, it is "sneaked", not "snuck." You are too much a Utah fan that you also speak Utahn.

                  You have no inner DH. Also "snuck" is just fine, if not preferable.

                    You can just call him BoogerUte.

                    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                        Seconded!

                        Seriously, PH should NOT lose by picking BYU over Utah. That is messed up.

                          According to the Roberts Rules of Order, a motion has been duly made. Vote, all in favor, say aye.

                          Aye.

                            A slippery slope. Next you'll be giving out participation trophies.

                              Not according to this.

                              Snuck is used in American and Canadian English as the past tense and past participle of sneak, but it is considered non-standard, i.e., ol for dialectal and informal speech and writing. The standard past tense is sneaked. Snuck is relatively new, an Americanism introduced in the late 19th century. The opposite has occurred to the past form of slink. Slunk was long the standard form, but then slinked appeared and is encroaching on slunk. Slinked is considered non-standard. Style guides at some of the biggest newspapers in Canada and the United States - including the Globe and Mail (1998) and the New York Times (1999) - ban snuck. But snuck may tiptoe into more formal writing over the years
