Interesting Online Guide for Writers Common Errors in English
When writing the most cut and dry articles everyday, one, must express that the more importantly exact same phrases as to not encounter dilemmas.  Ain't it a shame that you can't find a guide while surfing the internet to help the problem of grammatical errors? [Kuro5hin]

Maybe I'll Forgive the Giants. If... The sadness of Dusty Baker's departure from the Giants lingers. The bad taste in my mouth for Giants ownership will cloud my admiration for the team. Friends and columnists who called for his departure and who are now gloating over same make me sad because they are, to a person, wrong-headed. They wanted Dusty to go because of his (needed) arrogance and/or his (inevitable) tactical mistakes. No new manager will satisfy. But perhaps such is the reality of life as a major league baseball manager.

Now if the Giants:

  • Fill the position quickly
  • Fill the position with someone of serious baseball stature (and that decidedly does not include pitching coach Dave Righetti
  • Make the right trades to beef up the roster so we hae a legit shot at the World Series again next year

then I might be able to find some forgiveness in my heart. But if they let Dusty go and then allow things to deterioriate into a Florida Marlins kind of low-level inertia, I'm so outta here.
