His roster spot was guaranteed, it was just a question of whether he would play this year.

Agreed.   Poorly worded.   'Anderson was almost red-shirted due to shoulder injury' is far more accurate.

But then the headline wouldn't imply that Buzz almost Buzz-sawed him...

Hey, hey,... misleading negative headlines are just an example of Hunt's journalistic integrity.  It's his way of proving that he's not a casual fan of the team, but instead has kept the necessary distance to allow him to write like a Badger troll.

Isn't it usually the copy editor and not the reporter who writes headlines?

Not sure how it works with the MJS or with a reporter of Hunt's seniority, but headline used to be crafted with story layout, etc, long after a story has been filed.

Blog posts are obviously different.
