Too funny! How do you get that wrong? Sure that isn't last years paper?
lol
December 18th, 2017 at 9:48 AM ^
Made sure to capture the date printed right there above Jon Gruden's Bucs visor, too.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:30 AM ^
Is this a new thing to attract younger people to print additions?
December 18th, 2017 at 11:49 AM ^
I do enjoy living in a world where the header about a newspaper mistake has a typo in it!
December 18th, 2017 at 2:44 PM ^
That’s how they spell down in SEC country. We are just lucky they don’t have the Colorado Avalanche playing against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the Grey Cup.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:49 AM ^
Because it has a headline about the Pats crazy game.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:52 AM ^
Someone googled "Outback Bowl 2017" to find out the team that would be playing this year. You know, since it's still 2017 right now.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:02 AM ^
Just ask ESPN.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:15 AM ^
That's exactly what happened. Which means either the editors of the Sports page don't know anything about sports, or were too lazy to realize the Google search of "2017 Outback Bowl" also shows the final score of the game.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:40 AM ^
send what they wanted printed and no one at the paper questioned it.
December 18th, 2017 at 12:29 PM ^
You'd think that someone working in the sports section of the local paper would know who's playing in the well established, New Years Day bowl game hosted by the paper's city. Good grief...
December 18th, 2017 at 11:11 AM ^
When that whoopin's over, some of that person's body parts will be lookin' like a BLOOMIN' ONION.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:49 AM ^
is disrespekt.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:48 AM ^
Now we know which organization picked up the fired ESPN writer
December 18th, 2017 at 9:50 AM ^
… this is on the advertising department, not the writers or editors. Having worked there, it's likely no one from editorial got to see the ad before this went to press.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:02 AM ^
That's interesting. Thought an editor would have final look over. So funny
December 18th, 2017 at 10:05 AM ^
Communicate through ideas, not sound bytes.
Edit: you edited your comment. Oh well.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:16 AM ^
Thanks God, I mean Julian, but no politics please.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:18 AM ^
What?
December 18th, 2017 at 10:19 AM ^
So obvious man. Orlando was created 1 hour after Julian's final post. You are bad at this just stop.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:20 AM ^
What is obvious? I am confused.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:22 AM ^
Hi maize blue 11. You are also all the awful wd parody accounts. Oh and Inman.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:22 AM ^
What?
December 18th, 2017 at 10:25 AM ^
Your avatar was used on one of your troll accounts last week... you forgot to change it.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:27 AM ^
I never changed my avatar at all. You are confusing me.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:24 AM ^
Could you explain to me what you are talking about?
December 18th, 2017 at 10:24 AM ^
I created an account just to tell you how obvious you are at your poor trolling efforts. Remember your first post? Yea well you haven't lived up to that. I liked you when you talked trash about Dakich, but now you have become a slappy.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:33 AM ^
Two new accounts in an Internet battle. smh
December 18th, 2017 at 11:37 AM ^
Get the fuck outta here. You were right on me being WD troll accounts and Julian. I was trying to rejoin the board and become a good member again with Julian, but we all knew that wasn’t going to happen. Thr WD troll accounts I owned were Wolverine Peevotee, Wolverine Devotee’s Girlfriend, and Big Deezy. I also owned the RichGod account. That fucking asshat “God” isn’t me. Nor Inman. This guy Orlando isn’t me either.
Sincerely, Maizeblue11
December 18th, 2017 at 11:57 AM ^
Took u awhile to find this password orlando
December 18th, 2017 at 12:04 PM ^
Uh, this “Paul Finebaum is a F***ing B****” isn’t me.
December 18th, 2017 at 12:06 PM ^
I bet this faggot orlando is mr yost. 400 pts in 6 days. Def. mr yost
December 18th, 2017 at 12:09 PM ^
I geniunely feel sorry for both of you.
December 18th, 2017 at 12:41 PM ^
Get off the blog you faggot. We know ur mr yost
December 18th, 2017 at 3:35 PM ^
… way out into the weeds of how newsrooms tend to work, but no, not typically. Virtually all the digital proofs reviewed in the sports department would show the editorial content with empty spaces for ad placement. It's possible there could be one person at the very end of the night with the opportunity to see the complete page with both editorial content and ads, but they're not concerned with finding errors in the advertising. The advertising department is gone long before page proofs are available. So if someone with the opportunity to correct this mistake were to catch it on a proof, it would be sheer luck/coincidence.)
December 18th, 2017 at 11:45 AM ^
in one thread, plus I now have my own parody account. Guess I pissed someone off
December 18th, 2017 at 9:50 AM ^
I like that you called it ths sporps section. Is that also a typo or irony?
December 18th, 2017 at 9:51 AM ^
No games.
Just sporps.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:11 AM ^
We don't have enough "What Women Want" references around here. Thanks for remeding that!
December 18th, 2017 at 9:52 AM ^
I always like it when Brian & Co. use "sporps" to refer to the sports entertainment industry at large.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:51 AM ^
You found it in the sporps section!
December 18th, 2017 at 9:52 AM ^
Can't wait! Urban Meyer vs. Hayden Frye! What a coaching battle. Outback is famous for their Coney Dogs!
December 18th, 2017 at 9:53 AM ^
Have you submitted this to r/cfb yet?
December 18th, 2017 at 12:11 PM ^
… but I see it's there now. Good thinking!
December 18th, 2017 at 10:04 AM ^
the genius editor of the display advertising section made the sensible assumption that the Gators and the Hawkeyes play each other every year in Tampa.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:04 AM ^
Just another example of why newspapers are going the way of the dinosaur.
There only seems to be the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the LA Times. If you are reading anything else newspaper wise (with a few exceptions), you are wasting your time.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:18 AM ^
Those allegedly exalted outlets are not exempt. The Post is my local paper and they have their share of typos and mistakes. Their only saving grace is that they are heavily read so their mistakes get noticed quickly and they are able to correct them quickly.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:39 AM ^
Me too. The Post has fired a higher % of their staff than ESPN has.
And it shows.
