Dave in Green Posted November 22, 2013 Report Posted November 22, 2013 Not trying to play grammar police here. But I'm always curious when people post "could of" if they know it's supposed to be the contraction "could've" from "could have?" Just wondering if anyone else has given any thought to the fact that "could of" really doesn't mean anything, though when you search the internet for "could of" there are more than 3 million instances.

johnnyzip84 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Posted November 22, 2013 I prefer "coulda". ....as in "coulda, shoulda, woulda", a phrase that should resonate with EVERY Zip fan (football, in particular). Quote
