    Could we call the forum "Grammatica," and swat the forum to the stands?

    Although I do appreciate good grammar.

    Sorry to hear that.

    Also, in case you didn't get the reference:

    After successfully kicking a 42-yard field goal in the first half of a game against the New York Giants on December 21, 2001, Gramática jumped up in celebration and tore his ACL upon landing. He missed the rest of the season.
