Dynamic SQL vs. Stored Procedures

     So much has been written about the pros and cons of Dynamic SQL vs. Stored Procedures, with a lot of venom coming from both sides. As a DBA, I really push hard for the use of Stored Procedures as the only way to access or manipulate data, but as an ex-developer, I see the allure of Dynamic SQL.

     The purpose of this post is not add to yet another article to the "flame ridden" posts already out there, but to get a sense of where people stand and what people are using in their shops. Please reply to this post with which side you come down on, your job title (if applicable), and either an existing article or brief summary that best describes why you feel the way you do.
