I just came across this and I thought of you.

You aught to know who you're quoting and what they stand for.

Stood for Saden, stood for! The man's dead. Damn your grammar is bad.

Native English speakers please stand up and let this "man" know why it's more appropriate to use stand rather than stood.

Are you implying that English isn't my primary language? When I'm watching Dallas lose at FedEx Field this December I want you to do something: lean back, close your eyes, open your mouth, and picture me rolling.

You've demonstrated that English is not your forte on many occasions and so I am left with two impressions of you, a) you're a stupid man or b) English is not your native language. I am also open to the possibility that both a and b are true.

I'm looking forward to the days Dallas loses in both FedEx and in that new Dallas Stadium and as much as I want to picture you rolling (preferably under a bus) I don't know how to picture someone that doesn't exist.

Again you demonstrate how little you know. I graduated from Randolph-Macon College with a degree in English. I know that's not saying much since most colleges, including mine, are nothing more than expensive Marxist indoctrination camps. They churn out brainwashed dopes like you. So you can say I've a good 12th grade understanding of the only language I care to know. I have given Mandarin Chinese some thought since your Communist allies will be running the world soon.

Your sentence structure implies that the subject is still living. Your thinking of a sentence that is more like this, "Who were the Founding Fathers and what did they stand for?" Homeboy's ideals may still stand, but he's dead.

Here's the link so you can see I didn't make that one up.
Heritage of the Founding Fathers - Welcome

You don't have to use a coma on short sentences if you don't want to. It's usually not done unless the sentence is long and needs to be broken up. It also makes you look pompous in American English. The intention is relevant too.

Again you're wrong. I'll be on the bus going to and from the game. Picture me rolling fool!
