Absurd as it may seem, the numbers are real enough. E.g., searching forum posts in the past 3 months yielded 500 hits for Cassel, 230 for Cassell. 230/730=.315, or 31.5% misspelled.
In other words, I am not a faker -- I am a pathetic geek.
It's a good thing the Pats didn't pick up Adam Archieletter.
good mourning all from the king of misspellings.
In defense of the guilty misspellers like myself its not that we don't know how these names are spelt its that we just don't take the time to proof the posts. Usually I am posting at work and need to be quick.
This year's winner for Most Misspelled Rookie:
Bo "Rudd" Ruud, inheriting the crown from 2007 champ Matt "Guiterrez/Guttierez" Gutierrez. Congratulations, Bo! (Special mention goes to fellow rookie LB Vince Redd for helping to befuddle dozens of PatsFans posters about Ruud.)
The inaugural Willie McGinest award for sustained excellence goes to Matt Cassel. In his fourth year with the Patriots, Matt continues to be spelled Cassell by a whopping 31.5% of posters. Way to go, Matt!

I have trouble with the easy ones like Vrable...I mean, you know.
Plus now we have Crabel...or do we?
Sorry, I'm leaving this thread.
With both Vrable and Crabel on the team. I'll no doubt do Vrabel and Crable 100 times during the year.
Anyone think that the reason Gene Mruczkowski retired is that he wanted to give someone else on the team a chance to win the misspelling trophy? Maybe not ...
