    My family subscribes to the San Francisco Chronicle and our towns small paper. I was reading it a little over a week ago and they were talking about how great the playoffs had been in the Sports section. I forgot to tell you guys about this earlier. LOL I couldn't believe how many peoples names they spelled wrong. Here's how they spelled some players names...Labron JamesDwayne WadeDirk NowitskiManu GinolbiJason KidChauncy Billupsand last Sam CasellYep I could be a better sports writer for my town then the guys they have doing it. I guess they don't check the name spelling. BTW this wasn't the SF Chronicle I'm talking about I'm talkign about my towns little paper. My towns more of a baseball and soccer orientated town. They have no city league so there's just basically my schools team and two AAU team but one is 16u so im too young and the other my bday is past the deadline by less than a month so I'm barely too old for it. It sucks.

    Haha, nice. Well I guess they just put stuff in there so they can say they have basketball coverage.

    That's just really sad. I mean you can find their names spelled the correct way easily.

Young Cus our paper usually doesn't do basketball coverage either but they do coverage of playoffs for baseball, football, and basketball and theyre also doing coverage for the World Cup right now. Normally they just do local stuff.
