You love to question UTEP, and provide "constructive criticism".
But don't like being told the difference between having a 500 season and having a .500 season ratio.

Makes sense now.... You like to do to others the very thing you don't like having done to you. And that is very much in line with what I've come to observe of you.

100% incorrect. I am not a grammar Nazi and I do not attack anyone personally.

I simply want to debate sports and politics.

Unfortunately, the UTEP fans in this forum are very much like Cowboy fans. They love their team so much that they don't have an constructively critical bone in their body.

P.S.

If the 500 without the period threw you. I'm sorry.

It's a baseball term.

When some one bats 500, that means that they when 50%.

It really should be .500 but most people just say "five hundred".

When I said I would be satisfied if UTEP has a record of 500, that is what I meant.

I thought you guys were being grammar nazis

I had no idea you knew nothing about baseball.

Well since we weren't talking about baseball....

You made a comment about comprehension and education; yet you post 500 vs. .500, and didn't like having it brought to your attention. Again, you certainly like to apply a double-standard.

And if you really want to split hairs; Grammar Nazis correct grammatical structure and punctuation. .500 vs 500 is math-related, not grammar.
