Hey AP...

....watch your headlines. I know it's pronounced "Wong" but if anyone used this headline they're probably catching hell.

"Yankees' Wang hit hard, Red Sox rough up Halladay"

Doesn't hitting your wang hard cause hairy palms and blindness?

Our sports department used "Wang roughed up," which may have been the tamest thought for a headline in that sense.

I agree with your overall point, but is anyone lazy enough to use the headlines the AP slaps on its stories?

You'd be surprised.

Cutlines, too.

Wow. Just wow.

Oh, yeah, I've seen it a lot.

I can't remember the last time we've used one, my SE just died laughing when he saw it.

If he'd have pitched a perfect game (he flirted with one), it would have been like walking a tightrope on the headline. My favorites that you couldn't use: "Perfect Wang" or "Magic Wang."
