I teach English and Coach Football because those are two areas that provide tools for teaching young men to face and overcome adversity.
Oh I'd be MORE than happy to read it. Mind if I hack your grammar up while I'm at it?

No English teacher I ever had taught anyone I ever knew to do anything other than get it right until such time as you are a published writer, at which time you can do pretty much anything you'd like.

Moving the expressions from back to front or front to back is how we teach third graders to 'see' the two, independent clauses and not where to put a comma, since a comma alone here isn't sufficient. There is no 'interjection' or 'weak exclamation' here.

Hurry! We need to get there now!

Hurry, we need to get there now.

That's what you are trying to twist this to in order to make your point. You can't just break the rules when you want to. If you tried to teach that crap to my daughter me and you would have a come-to-Jesus of a parent teacher conference.
We can agree to disagree on comma usage since you fail to comprehend the evolution and complexity of our language. I'll resort to a language you understand... Who Dat!!!

Can't we all just get along and stay on topic? Vikings players and fans just slapped us in the face and we're talking about comma's and correct usage of the English language on a forum, not a book, not a newspaper article, not a thesis or biblical insert, a "Forum" a blurp on the net of quadrillion blurps where only a fraction or .001% of the US that read anything regarding football will ever see.
