I'm bored. Thought it was kinda cool. Ha!

Sorry. Don't want a French term used for any of our players

While the term is french in origin, the word "coup de grace' is in the Mirriam Webster English dictionary meaning that the French fumbled that word and it is english now.

Remember also it was France that helped the USA obtain independence from England. The Greeks, for example, didn't do didly, (I mention Greece since 'phocis' is the name of a historical region in Greece.) ;-)

I call Decoud's INT's "retard mistakes".

I like it, but giving a nickname to one play by one guy seems kind of silly. We WILL see more Decoud De Grace this year but a nickname for it isn't necessary. Still a funny thought though.

Which letter in the American alphabet includes an accent mark above it?

I retain my God-given right to be silly. I was sitting around thinking of Berman's hilarious nicknames this morning. That just popped into my head. I'm not being all serious or anything, just having fun with football.

Implying he didn't earn them? I disapprove.
