What? The website is a joke both figuratively (as the name suggests) and actually (because of it's stupidity). SportsTALES "reports" user submitted stories irrespective of accuracy; often the stories are so far fetched or wildly inaccurate one could not reasonably believe they are anything but a joke.

I'm quite aware of the definition and the proper grammatical usage of term but I appreciate your input. I'd also like to point out that no one likes a sports forum grammar Nazi.

The Onion would be a website that is literally a joke.

I'm not a grammar or usage nazi at all -- and I'll never call out somebody's spelling on a message board -- but there are a couple common misuses that I crusade against. I've completely given up hope on "begs the question" as I'm one of an exceedingly small percentage of people that know what the phrase actually means. But with "literally" I still believe there to be a fighting chance.
