Placemarker text fail

your old publisher is an idiot. did he also tell you to mention that they threw overhand from 60-6 just to make sure the readers weren't confused, too?

 

Took the words right out of my mouth.

 

I'm shocked - shocked, I say! - that, until now, this has gone unacknowledged. Well done.

 

Didn't think about it like that until I read this post. Well-played.

 

It's absolutely right. Can't argue the premise one bit.

Also never gave it a thought in 50-plus years until it was stated right there.

 

It's one of my biggest journalistic pet peeves, I guess because it's my favorite sport.

Saw it in SI a couple of weeks ago. Nearly ripped off an email to them, but got lazy.

 

You sir...are a true American! LOL

 

I suppose there are happy endings...

To the surprise of very few, he now makes more money.

 

Way to go, kid. ... Say, call it a hunch, but are you inhaling any toxic chemicals?

 

Glad to find out where the reporter ended up, even if he did deserve to get fired for what happened. Not shocked he's making more money.
