Up until that late big inning, it wasn't ...I dunno. Up until that late big inning, it wasn't the prettiest performance from the Navs, either. It certainly wasn't a bad performance, but aesthetically, I thought it wasn't the most pleasing game ever.<BR/><BR/>Language Geek moment: The word "nil" actually predates the existence of soccer, first making the jump from the Latin "nihil" in 1833. It's also used in a number of card games.<BR/><BR/>Rest assured, I would never use 'nil' in a baseball game story, just as I would never use 'zilch' or 'nada' either. I consider it a slang term.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading the blog and I hope you're enjoying it!<BR/><BR/>JGJoe Gravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883597644631048767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694675212910858857.post-17392993594886415472008-06-17T14:15:00.000-04:002008-06-17T14:15:00.000-04:00Sanford played ugly, not the Navs. When you post t...Sanford played ugly, not the Navs. When you post that the Navs win ugly it sounds as though they played bad and still won which wasn't the case. Please don't use "Nil" in reference to anything baseball. Nil is a soccer term and should stay with that sport.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694675212910858857.post-91576071365974626912008-06-16T17:54:00.000-04:002008-06-16T17:54:00.000-04:00Hello - sorry, we accidentally postted the first e...Hello - sorry, we accidentally postted the first edition of the press release instead of the final edition.<BR/><BR/>It's fixed now.<BR/><BR/>JGJoe Gravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883597644631048767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694675212910858857.post-72791905260592553242008-06-16T11:25:00.000-04:002008-06-16T11:25:00.000-04:00That was so short.....wheres the quotes?!That was so short.....wheres the quotes?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
