I noticed that, too. I also noticed that one of the titles on the homepage was labelled "Sport for the mind," despite one of their most commonly used tag lines being "The varsity sport for the mind." On top of that, the former is even worse of a fragment than the latter one was!

And that, folks, is why I try to avoid youtube comments and other places plagued by bad grammar.
