Considering how short this article was, you think it would have been easy to proof-read.

"He has also appeared in movie 'State Property 2,' 'Blood of a Champion" and "Killa Season.'"

zap2it doesn't spell check.. and I think the writers here aren't exactly college graduates who majored in journalism.

Just goes to show you, nothing good ever happens when you are going out to the "store" at 2am in the morning.
