This headline has seven words in it...

So I open up the OC Register's sports page to check out their breakdown of the big Ducks-Kings series coming up, and what's the headline I see? "Amezaga has to hit to make team". This is the big headline on the front page!? Not an article about the biggest game of the season for both local hockey teams, not the Match-Play Golf Championship taking place just up the freeway, and not the exciting last-second victory by the Clippers? No, it was story about an AAAA shortstop whose chances of breaking camp with the big club are slim to none. Not only is the subject a bad choice, the headline its self is awful. Why should I even read on if the headline "Amezaga has to hit to make team" sums it up completely? Oh well, I'm over it now.
