A badly written link?
 
I got this from the front page of ESPN.com. It is a link discussing the Miami Hurricanes and the players they're losing to the draft:
Hurricanes hardest hit; 41 enter draft

To me this is misleading. It looks like 41 guys are leaving Miami for the draft.

I thought the same thing. Good Lord they need an editor.

bump for "Badly written headlines"

How many people got stabbed/murdered in this headline

A 14-year-old boy is charged with murder in the slaying of a classmate, a musician and baseball player who was found bleeding to death in a school bathroom.

you would think 3, but it is 1.

That's just like the headline I saw on a Tonight Show commercial last night:

"[Someone] has dinner with wife, Jimmy Carter"
