But, it is your right to point out his mistake

But the original didn’t have a subject, therefore it was fair to assume a spelling error.

Which is par for the course here, given our collective proclivity to get off subject

To set the record straight and to beat this horse to death, I was trying to be funny, as evidenced by the emoji after the obvious grammatical error:

“In summary, your right to point out my mistake.”

Ok then, back to football!

And to dance on the dead horse, My comment was also meant as humor.

Duke Football has upped its social media game. Great speech, wonderful highlights, excellent camera work to capture the players up close (while avoiding empty stadium seats).

David Shumate and John Roth are excellent. If I could sync Duke Radio with TV games, I'd say "How sweet it is!"

I need to take the blame for getting us off track and wasting everybody's time. I didn't even notice Marty's wink wink emoji and thus missed his obvious joke and therefore I also misunderstood the gentle admonition in Phredd's comment about my smiley translator. It's a good thing this wasn't the reading comprehension portion of the SAT!
This stands as a good example of the aphorism "it's better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt."
I'll do you all a favor and keep my trap shut for a while.

And I could have helped you out by more selectively quoting so that it wasn't including your own emoji in my reply. Good thing this wasn't the essay portion of the SAT!

Now that we have that squared away, let's all participate in the defining of a gerund.
