Overuse of Commas, Run-On Sentences and Makes No Sense...Is it just Me?


I read this blog entry after the Bama vs. Georgia game. I truly cannot understand it due to the terrible grammer mistakes. I am no grammer guru like Deano but, holy cow, this is terrible. Please comment and tell me if I am the only one who can not make out what message this guy is trying to relate.
====================================
Alabama might want to spend a little more time on its complacency-time return coverage: against Clemson, the Tide allowed the Tigers a brief glimpse of hope on a C.J. Spiller kick return to start the second half, and Georgia looked ready to storm back into tonight's rout on Prince Miller's punt return to open the fourth quarter. You get the feeling this might hurt them, eventually.

Otherwise, this team looks completely for real. This is the Tide's second complete, thorough stomping of a top ten team in the span a month There's no dismissing that. The running game gets most of the the attention because of the massive, borderline dominant offensive line, but take a look at tonight's line on ho hum John Parker Wilson, ostensibly the weak link of the offense: 13 of 16, 205 yards (12.8 per pass), 1 touchdown, no turnovers. He was rarely pressured, has a legitimate, reliable go-to guy in Julio Jones, was completely in command on the road against what's supposed to be one of the toughest, fastest defenses in the country, and looks for all the world like a solid, competent veteran in the Matt Mauk mold, unspectacular but capable of doing everything he needs to do to carry the Tide to win after win. As long as he's protected as well as he's been protected, and the defense continues to take the run away before halftime. If you didn't know anything else about tonight's game except that Knowshon Moreno wound up with all of nine carries for 34 yards, you'd still recognize that as the death sentence it was for Georgia.

By the time Georgia woke up and kicked back a little, Stanford Stadium was, as predicted, downright funereal. This eliminates the Dawgs from nothing -- there's a long season ahead, with a strong precedent for one-loss teams from this conference -- but for Alabama, it's a step up to an entirely different class. You know, the one they've been acting like they're still a part of for the last 15 years, only without much chance this edition might evaporate into a mirage.

I think this guy might be a little one-sided---but in his defense on the drive to the game, he probably got stuck behind; a big 4 wheel drive truck, that on one side had. a bear bryant hat, 2 flags; the other side had an A, an S: and then something about how his kid beat up your honor roll student...

At least I take my guns out of the window on game day.
