Understandable. 
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Don't tell Greg Abbott, but Maddux was a Cub for only two and half seasons the second time.

And he was there seven years the first time.  Some "perfesser", huh.

Maybe the second time only seemed like six years.

Oh for sure, don't tell, Him. People just talkin' anyway, don't matter what they say, that's not the essence of communication, the essence is what you take away.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit
