Is there a Fake Salt Lake somewhere?
Golly that is original! What a really amazingly original observation!

Good article even if it is not very original to begin with!

Boo! How hard is it to get the initials of the league right? "MSL Beginning New Season With New Names". MSL? Again? How many times in the past month have we seen this? Even our own beloved Mr. Edwards has made the mistake a couple times.

What if we say "NAB" for "NBA" or "NLF"? It doesn't reflect well on the author nor would I give much credit to the article if the league name can't even be correctly presented. If they can't even double-check the league initials, why should I believe that the author even checks his/her facts?

It all screams minor-league reporting to me.

The Des News mistake could have been due to a $7/hr. type setter…
