 Poorly Written 

The article is a good description of what is known about ""Merkle's Boner.""  Unfortunately, the discussion seems a bit rushed, even for an encyclopedia entry, and the grammar is a bit lacking.  I suggest that someone edit the page to make it intelligent.

Re:  Sensitivity.  It is not our problem that current society thinks of a boner as something other than a huge mistake.  That is what it was called, back then, and how it is known.

Re:  Scoring.  I agree, big picture, but I also object to using a word like ""drilled"" when a word like ""hit"" would suffice and be better understood.  The entry is factually correct, as the facts (disputed) are known.  Our point is that the entry is poorly written.  I agree."
