I think you need a dictionary.  

noun

1.
a bundle of sticks, twigs, or branches bound together and used as fuel,a fascine, a torch, etc.
2.
a bundle; bunch.
3.
a bundle of pieces of iron or steel to be welded, hammered, or rolledtogether at high temperature.

verb (used with object)

5.
to bind or make into a fagot.
6.
to ornament with fagoting.

 


It can also mean a dislikable person. Anyone can be one. It's not exclusive to homosexuals and shouldn't be. Just because you are homosexual doesn't make you one. Only being an obnoxious, annoying, prick can make you one. Words have always changed meaning. However, that's how I've associated the word with and by the looks of it, my view coincides with the dictionary.

You guys are mad???

You shouldn't be, here is why:

This is perfect bulletin board material, similar to everything else the doubters have been saying all year long. It is that extra motivation the Panthers have been feeding off of all year, which has lead us to 13-0, soon to be 14-0. 

THANK YOU Rodney Harrison, KEEP IT UP!

I see what you are trying to do here, but a linguist is going to recognize a words dominant use from a social context.

Yes a "fine young male" is a bundle of kindling sticks, but you and everyone else in here primarily hear, or use, the word when referring to a homosexual.

Now...people being so easily offended is another issue...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
