FOUND ONLINE: On Saturday, the Bengals will attempt to win their first playoff game since 1990.

We've been down this road before, and a lot of people disagree with me. Hey, I'm being precise here.

It's NOT Cincinnati's first playoff game since 1990. The Bengals have played a lot of playoff games since 1990; they just haven't WON any playoff games since 1990.

On Saturday, the Bengals will attempt to get their first playoff victory since 1990.

ALSO FOUND ONLINE: Gase was the NFL's hottest coaching candidate among assistants, and at 37, he becomes the league's young coach.

I assume they meant youngest coach.

Found online: In all, Virginia forced 19 turnovers and turned those W&M errors into 20 points.

You don't need In all at all. Same with those W&M errors.

Virginia forced 19 turnovers and turned them into 20 points.

That'll work just fine.

By the way, I really like this writer, but I sometimes wish I could edit his writing.
