Doug, is "riding buddies" acceptable? "Crew"

In reference to post #64, who the hell joins a forum just to make one weak post in a thread only vaguely related to the forum's purpose?

Time to update the list:

Crew - - as in "Me an' my crew rode . . ."

This should only be used if you happen to be on a collegiate rowing team . . . or if you are a bona fide rock star and other people set up your lights and sound.
Or if you actually have to pay others to ride with you and maybe portage your bike at river crossings. Then I suppose that would make them your crew.

You sound awefully subserviant.

Webster's defines "crew" as :
2
a : a group of people associated together in a common activity or by common traits or interests

Nothing about "people serving" or "being paid" or rowing. Get some esteem, and a dictionary!

That's sweet - - not many can afford to hire a crew just to go riding with.

What about homies, can we substitute HOMIES for crew. Or is it spelled HOMEES? Of course as a chubby 57 year old white (think typing paper) guy, saying homee is kinda like putting Horse Radish on Pecan Pie. Saying homie is fun though!

As in "me and ma homees be kickin it at Sam Boyd to watch our homies dem Sun Devils kick the blue off dat Boise Smurfs crew!"

Ed- It would be interesting to look at all 20,000 combined posts (you and Doohickie) to see what terms and phrases turned up the most.
