I actually think grammar is at a tipping point of major change......but wrong I could be.

Have you ever tried to read Laurence Sterne? Or consider the King James Bible. It was written in common speech to be widely understood. That grammar is not ours. Language is an organism subject to principles of motion and change, I don't care what the French and their academy say.

 

Still two hours to kill before baseball...

Still, all are best experienced in the original Klingon.

The French are extremely obtuse and also rigid in terms of what is culturally French. I would assume that "their" language and its consistency across time would reflect that. Edited by Pardon My Dinger

From MLBTR:

 

Braves director of baseball operations Billy Ryan is one of the names under consideration in the Twins’ general manager search, USA Today’s Bob Nightengale reports (Twitter link).  Despite being in his mid-thirties, Ryan has an extensive resume in the game, working in the Commissioner’s office as well as in the front offices of the Rangers, Indians and Diamondbacks, including four seasons as Arizona’s assistant GM.  As Nightengale notes, Ryan is one of “several young executives” on the Twins’ radar as a replacement for former GM Terry Ryan (no relation).
