When news that Eric Mangini was hired hit ESPN, my friend Steve and I were watching and he made the following comment.

"Mangini? He looks like Lane Kiffin and Butch Davis had a kid."

Lane Kiffin


+

Butch Davis


=

Eric Mangini




The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Who says he was adding? Maybe he was multiplying Kiffin with Davis to get Mangini.

I'm sorry that you find multiplication to be "silly", but those of us who passed 3rd grade realize that "two negatives equal a positive" refers to multiplication.

Over your head again eh kiddo? Thats not the point.
When you combine two people to form another, it's always considered adding.

Explain to me how multiplication fits in.....no no no please don't!!! Your just looking more foolish each time you try to come up with something.

Wrong LW. 2 people combining to make one, ( ie- having a kid) is multiplying, as in, God said "be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth.

Oh, I'm sorry - I didn't realize there was a rule for adding people together.

This conversation is getting ridiculous, but I'll still explain how multiplication fits in...

The OP said "two negatives make a positive" and you tried to be smart by saying something about addition. He didn't specify whether he was talking about addition or multiplication... we all just know that "two negatives equals a positive" is a reference to multiplication. That is how multiplication ties into this stupid argument.

You knew he was using multiplication - don't deny it. You just thought you could make yourself look smart by assuming it was addition.

Thanks, LA Brown fan.

Now he knows he is wrong unless he suddenly claims to be an Atheist.

That's funny, I always thought multiplying referred to reproduction. I never heard of people who "add" like jackrabbits, unless they're from Pittsburgh apparently...

You spin worse than a politician, and smack worse than a Clown fan...you are a Clown fan...nevermind.

I'll try this once more in simple terms.

To go forth and multiply means to have MANY..as rabbits do.

But (the sum of.).. Davis + Kiffen = Mangina
...not Davis x Kiffen = Mangina...makes no sense.
Don't act dumb guys.

Awww...did someone get too sensitive?

Here:

mul⋅ti⋅ply
1   /ˈmʌltəˌplaɪ/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [muhl-tuh-plahy] Show IPA Pronunciation
verb, -plied, -ply⋅ing.
–verb (used with object)
1. to make many or manifold; increase the number, quantity, etc., of.
2. Arithmetic. to find the product of by multiplication.
3. to breed (animals).
4. to propagate (plants).
5. to increase by procreation.
–verb (used without object)
6. to grow in number, quantity, etc.; increase.
7. Arithmetic. to perform the process of multiplication.
8. to increase in number by procreation or natural generation.

By the way, it's "Kiffin." When are you going to learn how to spell people's names who are involved in the NFL? It's not that hard.
