So I was feeling pretty smug last night when Bob Lobel, local TV sports hack, referred to Rosevelt Colvin as Shawn Colvin.

That was until just a few minutes ago, when in writing a quizbowl question I mistakenly used a friend from high school's name rather than the appropriate actor's name as the answer. There are some similarities to their names, but not that much.

I suppose I can still gloat, as I don't work off of a teleprompter. How's that for a justification?
