I'm thinking about doing this as a recurring thing. Have you ever been surfing the web, reading news on a reputable site (we're talking CNN, Foxnews, or for sports, Foxsports, ESPN, etc.), and come across a really blatant spelling or word-use error? Happens all the time! Drives me nuts. Of course, I've had my fair share of spelling errors, and I realize that by posting this, I'm opening myself up to criticism, but I feel like I owe it to the world to try to use my powers for awesome.
Today on
ESPN.com, I read the following:
"I think [the executive committee was] very comfortable with Jim as a perspective owner and he's going to try and make it work in Pittsburgh, but he's going to need some help in terms of a new building," Bettman added.
Perspective owner. Prospective owner. I guess I can see the similarity, but seriously, the definitions are pretty different. Yeah, seriously.
