Double check your spelling

I don’t know which bugs me more – the misspelling of “privilege” or the fact that I can’t figure out who spelled it incorrectly in the first place. The Daily Progress’ byline (no longer available) is “From staff reports,” and ESPN’s says (no longer available) “Joe Schad.” Both reports say:

“It is a privelege and not a right to wear a Cavaliers jersey and to represent our university and community,” Groh said. “There are certain things that are vital and those things come into sharper focus and are multiplied when you’re rebuilding, as we are. That’s focus, commitment and dependability.”

I think it’s the misspelling. Good on Coach Groh.
