They used a pic of Sisco for him.

What in the f*** White Sox.com

And it's still up, and it's been at least 2 hours since this thread started.

Someone should be fired for a mistake as simple and harmless as that?

yeah that's where you just tell the person, don't be such a moron. You get fired for much worse stuff.

If it were in print, possibly. A headline misprint is a pretty big boner. Thousands of dollars and lots of time to stop the presses and rerun. An agency I worked for in River North a while back almost lost an account over a reprint gaffe.

 

A webpage, highly unlikely—it's a 30-second code fix. Embarrassing, maybe. Terminable, not on the first time at least.

Like I said, its not a huge deal but cmon.If they did it from lack of knowledge of the team they should not be working for the site.If it was just a brainfart than no they shouldnt even get in trouble for it.

Considering our conversation the other night and your hangup on proper grammar and spelling, this is hilarious.

You obviously haven't met the internet people for teams before.

Do the Sox run that site exclusively or does MLB have a hand in it? All team sites are essentially the same so I wonder what control each team has.

I know the content is run by a combination of the team's web, marketing, and PR departments (or at least, that's how it is for the NBA; I'd imagine its similar for the MLB). Not sure about the design though.
