Have you seen our press conferences? These are not poets we're talking about here. I've said it before and I'll say it again...I don't give a rip about any of their verbal skills as long as they can communicate with each other and get the ball in the hole.
TP, so true. Although to me Paul and Ray (more so) are very good communicators in my eyes during those post game interviews. Hey, I've got friends who speak incredibly well who text and Facebook like drunken 3 year olds, has nothing to do with their intelligence at all.
Yeah, perhaps it's not entirely a matter of intelligence. However, being a huge Boston Celtics fan, I would prefer the face of the franchise didn't present himself like a "drunken three year old."
I consider myself a pretty good speaker ( i better be, just got into Law school) but my txt messages look about the same.
Im going for sped on a cell phone, not grammer perfection. If i want to write something that requires great grammer, its probley not something im putting on my cell.
for instance, this is a txt i sent yesterday to a friend
"u up? what u up 2 this W/e? let me no asap"
i suppose i could have taken an extra minute to write out the whole sentance, but whats the point? it got the message across.
Twitter isn't a blog, it has a character limit. its popular because you can do it from a txt message, thus negating the need to sit down and type out a blog post (ala' gilbert)
