In my newspaper this morning (Hawaii tribune-Herald) there's a teaser head atthe top of the Sports section which reads:
Seattle Smoaks
San Francisco
Page B2
Is this a typo that some half-in-the-bag copy editor let through because it was past midnight and he was tired from putting the paper to bed? Or is this a neologistic spelling that I was totally unaware of?
@Lustig Andrei,
Never mind. I just figgered it out. Turned to page B2 as the teaser suggests. It seems there is somebody named Justin Smoak playing for the Seattle team. Smoak/smoke is an apparent play on words.
Thank you all for your undivided attention on this grave matter.
@edgarblythe,
Not to mention snookered.
Now I can finally sleep.
