But, to answer the question, one is the set of structural rules that govern language, the latter, is related to or in accordance with grammar—either way bullie you good. Can-can? no-can? Either way-we can!

(never) In short, β€œare” vs. β€œis” for proper nouns which sound plural (such as band names) also it relates to subject verb agreement. The “rule” is that if the two preceding verbs are combined into a single activity, then the singular form of the joining verb (IS) should be used. If the two preceding verbs are independent actions, then the plural form of the joining verb (ARE) should be used. Or is for a single action or are for a plural verb.

For instance–The game plan is on the table. Or–The defense and special teams are practicing today.

In regards to the above sentence. Field workouts, including the 40 yard dash, are set for Saturday. ( as two or more subject are being connected) But, don’t take grammar lessons from me, I went to public school my entire life.

Pollypicador — I don’t know the real story nor do I have birdies…. but… in real life we have the “official” story (to protect egos/reputation) and the “real” story, which might not be so kind to those involved.

RE #56
A-House — you forget one of Murphy’s Laws: “If a committee makes a bad decision, then no one is to blame. 😐

RE: #64
OK tom — now I’m curious… what did Al’s birdie hatch at UHF? or are we taking away ST’s blog topic tomorrow? πŸ˜€

Disregard the interjectory, between the commas, and it becomes clearer.
