Lol what? You're clueless. Kincaid is way better and the NFL agreed. He's very physical with the ball in his hands and has way more wiggle.

It essentially has the opposite meaning, like saying IGAF when you intend to say IDGAF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackFan13 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 It's cute how you defend dumb comparisons but holy **** the circle jerk around here. I hope the kid is great but horrible comparison to anyone with eyes. Kincaid is two tiers above Luke and was drafted as such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 For real though, a strong breeze knocks this dude over and he's giant. I said it before we picked him. Freaky athlete though, be interesting to see play out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t care less doesn’t roll of the tongue as nicely but makes a whole lot more sense when you are trying to say you do not care at all. M&W have grown soft. Language means whatever we say it means but if something objectively conveys the opposite meaning, it should be objectively wrong.

Doesn't the person saying the phrase get to choose how much they care? If I say I could care less, it might actually I am not at the very bottom of my spectrum of capacity to care. Whereas couldn't care less means I have reached that bottom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freaky athlete though, be interesting to see play out. We’ve seen several times in the “throw picks at a position of need” approach, that the first in the flurry isn’t always the best. Aaron Jones and MVS come to mind. I root for Musgrave, but Kraft seems to come with the prerequisite nasty. If Musgrave gets as good as pre-injury Tonyan that’d be fine.

Sure, but if we’re being realistic, the phrase is used to say you absolutely don’t care. Like saying IGAF about where a guy went to school, when IDGAF is what you actually mean to say. Anyway, I don’t let it crumble me into dust. There are a lot of things that require more energy but it’s not really a debate for me as to whether it’s correct usage. Muskgrave would agree. IDGAF where he went to school and couldn’t care less that he’s a dumb jock, the man possesses a fine command of the queen’s English.
