Last year I wrote a dubious article (that produced one of the most negative voted comments of all time) about how CBS Sportsline intentionally uses inappopriate headlines for their player updates of certain players. Well, it appears that either 1) they haven't stopped, or 2) my mind is in the gutter. I'm leaning towards #2.
Anyway, here is the deal. These are actual headlines from player news updates from CBS.sportsline.com.
My favs in bold.
