Nice - comes from the Latin word nescius (ne*science) meaning No Science --> Nice - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary (Origin section should help)

Punk - this one is less scientific but the archaic section does plainly state "Prostitute" --> Punk - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Tell - sorry on the mistype, this one still stands as a transitive verb for counting......ever heard of a Bank Teller? --> Tell - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

I really didn't mean to sound like a royal <insert your word of choice>. I was only trying to impress the fact that the present date is a definite factor in the common usage of words.......and slang terms.

When are they suppose to announce it?

We should have at least a few days between the two. At least until the first incomplete pass.

I'm not on facebook or twitter. Never have been and never will be. Just don't post anything on there and you're fine.

Or... the adults reading his twitter could either:

A) Realize they have no idea the context of his posts, or

B) Quit reading some college kid's twitter

Just a thought.

This thread is actually pretty funny. Everyone is so pumped to hear who our quarterback is going to be.

You don't think the first threads will happen right after the announcement? You must be very naive.

No, that's fine, I just tend to use the OED for archaic definitions, since it's the "go to" one, and I didn't have one available. I'm sure you're right, was just curious since I couldn't find anything on it other than "Punk" meaning a gay male.

Based on what? How is his attitude any better than anyone else on the team? I'd prefer only one QB playing. And because hes a good QB, not because he has a good attitude.

Where did I say he had a better attitude than anyone else?

He could play as a WR.

Good attitude goes along with Cyclone values.

Stop reading into things.

By saying you want him as the starter because of his attitude, implies that he has a better attitude than Jantz and Barnett. By things I have heard, he doesn't have a great attitude either.

Where did I say I want him as a starter? Please use quotes from me.

I miss read your post. You also don't want more than one guy playing QB as it causes chemistry and rhythm problems.

So how does his attitude earn him snaps if it isn't better than anyone elses now?
