Quick-hitters

I was just scanning espn.com this evening, catching up on the news, when in the space of about 30 seconds I saw 3 headlines/sub-heads that each announced to the world the idiocy of whoever wrote them. Fortunately for the writers, of course, we don't know who that was. The first:

- "Dodgers edge Padres to inch closer in NL West"

Uh, yeah. Now they're a mere 5 1/2 games out. And the standings look like this:

Padres 43 36
D-Backs 39 39
Dodgers 37 41

Yeah, we've got a real battle going on there.

Meanwhile, on the espn.com front page, we find under "Today's Voices":

- "Andy Roddick went five sets to reach the Final Four at Wimbledon. And he's not done."

Huh? You mean he's going to play a few more sets? He's not going to drop out after reaching the semis? I have no idea what this is supposed to mean.

And in the same section, we find this gem, the prize winner for today's ESPN Idiocy:

- "Bob Harig wonders: Does Michelle Wie need to learn how to win?"

You have got to be kidding me.
