It's Rich A-u-r-i-l-i-a
New guy climbs on soap box...
C'mon guys. I know spelling isn't necessarily a strong point on many online message boards, but I have now seen Rich Aurilia's name spelled more ways than I care to name. If you are indeed a Reds fan, which most of us here claim to be, then at least figure out how to spell the freakin' ballplayers' names FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! There's a difference between typos and misspellings too....so don't even claim your fingers got ahead of you. ....climbs down. Thank you. Rant over. |

Or - use what the majority of people on this board call him.... "Mud"

Hopefully we can call him ex-Red soon and it won't matter.

Re: It's Rich A-u-r-i-l-i-a
When I first got on the internet the way people spelled - or rather misspelled - simple words really bugged me but I never lectured anyone about it. Now, it doesn't bug me so much and I still don't lecture people about it. And I don't type in all caps either. That's more annoying than people who misspell words.

Re: It's Rich A-u-r-i-l-i-a
Best Casy scenario is that we put on a pot of Coffee and sit down and talk about it. We should quit Beliesle-ing each other. Clausen the truth is...we're all Reds fans here.
Let him without sin cast the first Stoene. It Freeles good to get along. We don't all have to be such Machadoe men all the time. Last edited by max venable; 06-22-2005 at 03:17 PM. |

As long as you know who you are talking about I don't see the problem. But I guess different things irritate(SP?) everyone.

I'm sorry. I was never good at spelling. It's on my permanent record.
