Deciphering Urbanese

Urban Meyer's response to my note imploring him not to overlook the University of Miami:

The card was typed but it looks like it was signed with a sharpie as opposed to a computer or a stamp. Who knows?

That is outrageous. It's true we're all just a number followed by a number with a dollar sign indicating our lifetime contributions.

I bet that signature came from a signature machine.

Word is he was planning to reply by way of a txt message, but was worried about getting sanctioned.

wonder exactly how Coach Meyer plans to "support" the canes?

I also thought it was an odd choice of words. Perhaps he meant Miami, as in the city, as part of Gator Nation? Who knows?

On second reading, hopefully it was just a misprint and he intended the word "support" to be "attention"

Henry Louis Gomez said...

I'm sure it was something like that. Probably got lost in translation as he dictated it to the secretary.

It was obviously respect:

Coach, in closing, I’d just like to urge you, your coaches and the players to give Miami the respect they deserve as an opponent that can ruin our season
