    The most legendary typo I've ever seen was in a Pop Warner story in which "the ball fell into the waiting anus" of some poor little bastard. And yes, that went to print.

    I wrote a "Titus County" hed once and accidentally left the U out of Titus. I caught it well ahead of time, but I got a good giggle out of it.

    I once wrote a headline advertising a meeting of the local "4-H hores council"

    I've long heard about Linda's 12 toes (7 on one foot!) and just think ... it's too bizarre a rumor NOT to be true.

    I'd never heard of the 12 toes, so I had to do a little research.

    From wikipedia:

    "Twelve toes the hard way." Man, i can't stop laughing.

    Don't you mean the Cincinnati Red Stockings of 1892?

    I once thought I heard the baseball announcer say that the wild bitch allowed the runner to score.

    Of course, I could be mistaken.

    Along the same lines, a good friend once described his first sexual encounter in hockey terminology: "Honest to God SID, she pulled her goalie." Great line.

    No... the Red Stocking were in 1869. Franco came to that team after playing for the Brooklyn Atlantics.

    In my last baseball outing I said that catcher couldn't get up out of his crotch fast enough to catch a pitch that bounced well over his head. :)
