LOL... You literally said "anyone who rushes the passer" [from the outside]..; hence, I used the correct term for that...: "Bandit." If you just want to refer to a DE/OLB hybrid, "Edge" has become colloquially acceptable. But writing "EDGE" is plain moronic. ...Why are you even trying to argue that?

You're missing the point: "Edge" or "Edge[-]Rusher" is not an abbreviation that one should ever capitalize. --It's the equivalent of writing "CORNER" to refer to Cornerback or CB. This dumb usage has gone on long long enough. (Perhaps we can all just properly call it "Bandit" again?...)

For what exactly do you believe "EDGE" is an acronym or initialism?...

Does that crowd also employ erroneous commas? Or, is that just you when you refer to them?...

Likewise, for whatever reason, I've never quite been able to get into JASON ISBELL (as much as maybe I should), but the refrain to "Running With Our Eyes Closed" has some terrific guitar riffs (albeit it could have been fleshed out even better by Adam Granduciel w/ more... youtu.be/FAQ6ZYJLzfQ?...

One interesting test case: I can't think of a single HAIM song I'd ever want to listen to, but one exception is they actually do something intriguing during the refrain of "If I Could Change Your Mind" (while, regrettably, the rest of it is complete trash...). youtu.be/Ljg6g7BAdQo?...

You missed the point: What makes the show terrible is not the medical technical components, nor the setups/backgrounds for its stock characters; it's the actual dialogue & beyond on-the-nose writing that leaps beyond bad to extremely laughable.

DC Jacks @swanseacitydc.bsky.social · 03/03/2025
Except... it's not... The dialogue is unintentionally hilarious. --A combination of THE NEWSROOM-level cringe + exactly what CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL was parodying. (The fact that this show has been universally praised is one of the biggest head-scratchers in a long time...)

You clearly don't seem to grasp a couple of very pertinent elements that you are missing here; meanwhile, if I had employed "deadly serious," you would have immediately jumped on me--finding that diction deeply offensive...
