If the ability to speak one's native language above the level of "me is going to the store" is snobbish, then count me in. The reality is that most of the posters on this board don't value being able to speak and write correctly. No one here would consider it snobbish if a recruit were to say that he, Bob, and Joe had committed, so we had a total of two commitments. You don't give a damn whether these guys can read and write, as long as they can catch a ball.

This whole post has ignored most posts and concludes in nonsense (i.e. we only care about the athlete not the student). The assumption that one's informal speech directly relates to not being able to intelligibly read and write is simply incorrect. Your understanding of that concept is not my real concern.

I have never read anything so directly demeaning of our Stanford athletes or prospects - do not tell me you are unaware of other eyes that read these post. Why would you do this just to qualify a snobbish comment?

Move all related posts to private board please
