Schlabach on ESPN - "Carroll BOUGHT Cali cool back to USC"

Kind of like yesterday when something cut off the last part of the subject line. What started as “Jill Painter lost her brains over Petie” ended up as “Jill Pinter lost her bra.” Which is exactly like what her article sounded like.

Boy oh boy, does Dr. Sigmund still make his presence known.

so it will be interesting to see how long it takes ESPN to amend the headline.

Looks like they fixed it. Oh well. The truth stands triumphant over typos.

I assume “Cali cool” is a hip way that Cheatie acted like the author thought all cool people in California should act. Or perhaps he’s talking about the coolness associated with Cali, Colombia. (That’s the problem with hip-ese: It makes communication difficult by removing precision. “So, like, two plus two is like 13 or Georgia, or like, whatever. It doesn’t matter if I actually communicate exactly what I mean, because that’s, like, cool too.”)

Anyway, is I have guessed what the hip author is trying to say, I must disagree. I don’t think it’s cool, either in California or anywhere else, to cheat. It’s not cool to act the way Cheatie acted. It’s not cool to be a disgraceful person. But if the author thinks it’s cool, that’s like, OK, because I won’t, like, buy his paper and contribute to his, like, salary anyway. Or whatever.
