Damion James

I realize this may be a stupid and short rant but I am having some serious issues with how both ESPN and SI seem to cover our team. It started with the Damion Jones that was often said on air without being corrected instead of Damion James but today its hit an all time low...
    I go to SI.com to find out that the key to our game vs. Stanford is not only not Damion James but rather Damien Anderson and open the article from the link only to find another misspelling (not to as great a degree) with DamiAn James. Isn't there some sort of job that is required to find these errors that have been going on for the past few months and pretty consistently to a very often discussed team that is one of the only 16 (now 12 i guess) remaining playing in the country (sorry NIT). Just a rant that I hope somebody agrees with.
  Here's to the real Damion James showing up tonight, hook em

Typical spellling

is DamiEn...

I changed one of our cat's name from Damien to DamiOn this season is honor of my absolute favorite Longhorn.

Yes, stupid rant, but occupying oneself until tipoff I suppose...

re:

I thought I was the only one that got pissed when I heard it.  The first time I heard it was when the girl who covers women's bball said Damion Jones.  You think these "experts" would do some research before just regurgitating the stats and names they hear.
