You would not beleive the number of errors the Rams PR office puts out. I's almost a weekly thing. Oh well, they keep the same PR people. Must not be important to them. But I make tons of typos so I cannot really criticize.

So do I.
I rarely get a couple of sentences out without a mistake. I may have more edits then posts.

The difference is, ours are typos and theirs are mistakes. Plus they're getting paid to do it.

It's a sad commentary but I see that everywhere now. There's not a writer anywhere on the net who knows the meaning of proof read or edit. I blame it in large part on twitter. Twitter has made not being able to spell and atrocious English acceptable. What really bothers me though is the lack of pride the writers have in their work. I'd be embarrassed were it me.
