BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I don't get all the ink cops on here? This is a message board. As one example, the GF Herald has it's share of ink errors, probably not worth the effort to triple proof everything? Let auto correct, spell check, grammar correction, calculators, internet, texts, spread sheets, scanners, emails, fax machines, computers, cell phones, clouds, printers, cameras, and etc. help you get you through the day and then go enjoy the ball game?

MafiaMan Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Point is, BWSE, "Wild" is about as dumb a nickname as there is. Quote
sioux rube Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 The most impressive thing recently is the Zucker-Staal-Granlund line having 26 points over the last three games. That is nuts. Quote

Expand Just because you're not in on the joke... I tend to let it all slide, but like to pick on an "ink cop" when one makes an incorrect correction (MM, in this case).

Loved Stewie but he just took to many games off for Budreau to keep him in the lineup consistently. Quote
