RiceOwls.com Typos - why and what to do?
Through the years, this poster has noticed a moderate to high frequency of typos in RiceOwls.com content. Makes us look ... well, not as we should.

Do the typos result because the AD writer is rushing to post after a game's completion? Or perhaps because no one in the AD has the time (or is assigned) to proofread?

Excerpt from the recent signing day RiceOwls.com article:

"This is always an exciting day because it payoff for so much work by so many people" Bailiff said.

P.S. - Advance apologies for any typos or grammar errors in this post. [Smile.]
