Seriously, one can understand another even though there was a small error in spelling, he still is correct, we played the second worst team and did lose so, give him that, you moron who bitches for the smallest of things!

Agree!

You are right, and I, the moron who bitches for the smallest of things humbly apologies for being critical of a small spelling mistake. What I should have taken issue with was his idiotic comment to fire the interm coach.

Whomever does this blog makes many spelling and grammatical erros, yet I still get their meaning so, a poster making one slight error is OK, still understand the point made!

Spelling errors these days should not mean as much as in the past, with the use of mobile devices it is extremely easy to make mistakes. Also, the person may have english as a second or third language.

First off im a warriors fan but it blows me away that not many fans come on this blog to talk about the game but more fans come on here to accuse someone of a spelling mistake. The person who made the spelling mistake brought up his opinion about firing the coach and instead of others saying what they thought of the game or coach they jump on this person for spelling a word wrong. instead of jumping on someone for a spelling mistake, why don't you talk about the game or give your opinion on the game/team. thanks to vdhf for this great blog

Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the “fire the interim coach” was a rather silly thing to say. According to our very own vdhf, Vipers are 7-2-1-0 since Jason McKee was let go. Pretty darn respectable. Sure they lost to a PG team they probably should have beat, but they did beat them twice the weekend before.
PG beat the Vees at home 7-4 back in January and I doubt Mr Harbinson considered firing himself….
