A good correction

Now that's funny.

 

Who the FUCK doesn't know who Aerosmith is or cannot find someone in the newsroom to Walk This Way and help out?

Good grief.

 

Speaking of musical ignorance ...

 

The award for Bad Use of a Song Title as a Pun goes to SixToe...

 

The worst SID in the United States, who disgraces the halls of a D-II institution that shall not be named, who can neither spell nor construct sentences, boldy puts a "30" after his painfully illiterate press releases.

 

Out-fucking-standing.

 

Thank you. Thank you very much.

It's rare to find such Sweet Emotion during a time like this, but you have helped greatly. Too often you get the Same Old Song and Dance, but not this time. I find myself Cryin' ... I must go now.

 

They should be careful when writing stories about the breakup of the Beetles.

 

Once had a writer mention that a golfer's pre-round pump-up music was "Baba O'Riley."

Desk changed it to "Baby O'Riley."

 

Just to build off Some Guy's post (and, apologies, but it's a DMN screw up again).

Back in the early '80s when Mark Blaudschun was covering college football for Dallas' (Now) Only Daily, he sent in a lead to an Oklahoma game that said, "Oklahoma, where the wins come whistling 'cross the plains.''

The desk changed "wins" to "victories."

 

And then there was the desk editor who asked while editing a Rangers' gamer, "What's this six hundred and forty-three double play mean?''

If I have to explain it, please turn in your SportsJournalists.com membership immediately.

 

That's funny. I was thinking that editor must be pretty damn young not to have heard of Aerosmith.
