    So, it was a tale of two seasons then?

    More a tale of two halves. In the second, they scrapped out a win.

    I actually had a defensive coordinator tell me something along the lines of "Athletically-wise, they're just as good as we are, and speed-wise and football-smarts-wise, they might have the edge on us."
     
  4. I pulled a dictionary off the shelf at random. Both gel and jell are there, explained quite simply. Stop using Google and Wikipedia as spell checkers. That might help.

    Thanks asshat...I've said TWICE now that the dictionary we have in the newsroom didn't have either word in it. Glad it was in yours...mind if you send it to us?

    Google "define: gel" and "define: jell". If you have an internet connection, you have a serviceable dictionary. Though I still recommend Webster's New World.

    But it doesn't have "asshat" in it.

    First Web result is Urban Dictionary: "One who has their head up their ass. Thus wearing their ass as a hat."

    The Internet knows everything.

    Well, the word is not in my dictionary, either.
