Mel Kiper Jr.'s Thick "Fingers"
This image was lost some time after publication. We generally don't like to make fun of spelling mistakes here, because we make them as much as anyone (and don't get us started on our italics woes).
But we had to point this screenshot from Mel Kiper's column out before they changed it, because it proves what we've always suspected: Mel Kiper types out all his notes in the middle of the night, probably around 3 a.m., in a fevered caffeine rush, surrounded by game film, with his hair.
That, or maybe editing Mel's pieces over there at ESPN.com means, uh, writing them.
Hurry up and check out the whole thing before they change it.
