A Minor Point

Lucas Duda, currently playing right field for the Mets, is a rather popular player with the team's fanbase. He's a big, hulking guy with an amusing name. A name which, in fact, appears to fit rather neatly into a line from some movie, The Big Lebowski, that goes "the dude abides." Evidently it's a rather famous line. Anyway, people including Gary Cohen have taken to referring to Duda as "the big Lebowski," a double pun based on the line and his personal girth. And, of course, people slide his name into that quote. Except they do it wrong. People say "the Duda abides," which is flagrantly wrong, the correct version being, of course, "the Duda bides," which actually has the same phonemes in the same order. A minor point, but one I think is worth making.

Okay, so I'm bored and have nothing better to do. So sue me.
