Pickens from Steelers to the Cowboys for a third rounder next year and a 5th in 2032.
Another talented receiver who lost his head in Pittsburgh.
Clown Tomlin is such a fraud. Some call him a "Player''s coach", but he can keep no one straight, see, it's evident that he, as a head coach, enables these morons.
I am pretty sure that team is going to implode this year and I'd be surprised if they win more than 6 games.

Presumably bc gender of "infiltrator" is unknown to whoever that twitter handle belongs to. So, "they" is the logical default choice - unless of course they want to assume : )

We all use the pronoun "they" in the singular form, all the time. It's one of the technical-linguistic reasons I get so bemused at people who freak out about preferred pronouns other than he/she (not implying that's you).

- "Honey I just found these sunglasses, someone must have left them here yesterday"

- "Well they better come & get them before we leave for the summer otherwise they're shit outta luck!"

Oh, and, uh, yes - that is a funny thing that happened on that Ravens message board!

If it refers to one person, I normally go with "he" as default, especially, or unless, if I can deduct the gender from the situation.

If not, I go with "he" because "they" is plural.

"Honey, someone stole the tampons"
"Well, she probably had good use for them!"

"They" refers to the Bengals.

"They" refers to the Bengals.

How can it refer to the Bengals (Ravens?) if it was the Browns fan who changed the name?
