Could they have worded this a little better?

From ESPN.com:

Hurt Booty not sure if he'll start USC's next game
 
USC sports-information director Sir Mixalot had no comment.

Well boots didn't post for a while, so maybe he was out in southern California.
 
Someone at ESPN.com must be on the board. They changed the headline:

USC's Booty unsure if he'll start with broken finger
 
If he'd hurt someone's else's finger, it could have said...

Booty causes broken finger
 
Not quite the same comic value, but after SC's upset Saturday, SI.com's headline was "Busted Trojans"
 
ESPN.com's latest USC headline:

USC's Booty hurting

Well, they did get their asses beat by Stanford.
 
... Or we could add on to ESPN's hed:

USC's Booty hurting after Stanford busts Trojans

or ...

Stanford spanks Booty, Trojans
