Drew Brees's Bedroom


Jakob

Recommended Posts

Now go give mommy a kiss and run along. Have a good day at school. Maybe you'll learn something in English today. Like how to say Brees' instead of Brees's.

 

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but "Brees'" is incorrect.  When a personal name ends in "s," the conventional view is that an extra "s" is required, to wit, Brees's.  One minor, rarely-used exception is when the personal name is multisyllabic, e.g., Sophocles.  In such case, the "s" is omitted:  Sopholces'.  Makes sense because it would sound weird with the additional "s."  Otherwise, most plural nouns ending in "s" omit the additional "s" as you have suggested to the OP, and you only need add the apostrophe:  the dogs' cage.

 

It gets a little trickier when you deal with sports teams, so, see this post:  https://www.lawprose.org/blog/?p=2285

Please, make the poll.

Lets do it.

I'm not making anything. I'll get banned regardless, in fact I'm surprised I haven't been banned yet today after admitting that this is my alt account.

The difference between you and me though is that if you got banned, it would absolutely crush you. All your hard work, all the time you spent, all the thought you've given, and all your pie. I just wanna be here to talk football and talk smack to trolls. Like I said I run a fantasy league here too so I like to stay in touch with my guys.

Unless you wanna risk losing your number one hobby to me, I'd advise you to move along an preten you never saw me.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
