All: Read the story by Doug Doughty from today's Roanoke Times: www.roanoke.com/sports/uvabasketball/wb/185104Doughty gets JLF's name wrong in the lead. He then gets his name wrong a completely different way in the second paragraph. He then reverts to the first erroneous name for the rest of the story. If that wasn't bad enough, he then quotes Radford head coach SETH Greenberg. Absolutely horrible and inexcusable writing from Doughty and the Roanoke times. If you agree, please send an email to the RT sports editor Jeff Gilbert (jeff.gilbert@roanoke.com) and to Doug Doughty (doug.doughty@roanoke.com). Klep

They apologized, but they didn't change it... stuff like that online is pretty easy to fix.
