Editing isn’t fun.  And if, heaven forbid, you happen to be working without the red squiggly line that lets you know when you’ve bungled the spelling of a word, you’re bound to make a few mistakes. It’s like jumping out of a plane without a parachute or walking through downtown St. Louis without a can of mace.

Some of them are ignored as a simple typo by your audience. Others inevitably make readers giggle like a teenager. When the St. Louis Rams laid out their schedule on the team website there was a little sampling of both.

Typo #1:  In the description of Week 2′s pregame entertainment, the Meramec Choir is misspelled as “Meremac”.  Just a simple transposing of an ‘e’ and an ‘a’.  No biggie.  Even people who go to Meramec Community College probably aren’t sure how to spell it.

It’s Typo #2 where things start to go awry:

For a moment, we questioned whether we were missing an underground joke about how James Laurinaitis’ head looks like a supple breast.  It didn’t pass the sniff test.  The interns filling out the team schedule details don’t want a guy with traps like Laurinaitis’ hunting them down at Rams Park.

Was the team giving away 10,000 plastic statues of a shirtless Laurinaitis? Were his pecs bobbling instead of his head? Did the Rams cheerleaders stroll by when this was being written and cause a classic Freudian slip?

Frankly we have no idea.  Just know that when a typo includes the word “boob” by mistake, we’re still immature enough to chuckle.
