Imitation, flattery and all that *

I guess LATimes.com admired last week's Ghana hed on ESPN so much—as I did on Thursday—that they decided to borrow it for the top of the page today. A soccer fan/journalism prof writes: "What's up with that?"

* Not that ESPN was so original: Google counts 16,100 instances of "Going going Ghana" under various punctuation schemes, with a definite bump last week when the U.S. World Cup team lost.
