Quick exercise. Raise your hand if you’ve ever slipped up and typed the wrong thing into text field. Ok, if you’re not a headline writer for a major sports magazine put your hand down. See the hand that’s still up? That’s the probably the guy whose typo wound up on the front over of the this month’s Sports Illustrated which features Michigan State head football coach Mark Dantonio, not that you could tell though:

Oops.
Those familiar with how the vigorous magazine editorial process is know more than a few sets of eyes ran over the error before distribution and not one caught it. I blame the whole system for this.
