Cheers to Sherdog for some great grammar.

Description for the Fakedor vs. Rogers roundtable.

"The Sherdog Radio Network team we joined by SI.com's Josh Gross to breakdown this weekend Strikeforce card that pits Fedor Emelianenko against Brett Rogers."

Good stuff.

Holy shit they accidentally wrote "we" instead of "was". Luckily this genius was on hand to catch the mistake.

Good stuff.
A : (colon) should be used after "roundtable," not a period; "Description for the Fakedor vs. Rogers roundtable." is a sentence fragment.

it's also missing a "'s" after "weekend" and missing a "," but who really cares about a typo

and I do not believe SI.com is animate enough to warrant a possessive; instead, a prepositional phrase indicating possession must be used.

And technically, a card does not "pit", it is not an agent. Scott Coker "pits" people against eachother, or Strikeforce (as a company) does.
