Because I'm a pernickity so-and-so who gets 50 shades of glee from pointing out estbalished football journalists' errors, I noticed three in newspapers this week that were pretty much unforgiveable.

How the fuck is Captain Mighty-Mouse only worth 11.9 million?

That's a figure I've seen before. I think it includes a lot of the ad money too. (?) Well, he's a defender, he plays in the BuLi, and he's not considered glamorous, hunky, etc.

Beyond stupid, but there ya go. Possible testimony to Bayern's budgetary prowess as well. :p

The ad money. BINGO

Clubs get 50% and Lahm is in the top ten in the world.

I saw the worst journalist fail EVER in BleacherReport, after which I was forever thankful they didn't hire me. They wrote the wrong name of the coach who was sacked from my club (the one that they mentioned left YEARS ago).

Honestly, if these people are paid to do their job, they might as well do their research before writing about a league they don't even watch (the RPL).

El Mundo Deportivo's bad acid trip this morning, although I'm not sure it would qualify as a "mistake".
