“I’d like to complement all the people involved in carrying out this part of the inquiry for their hard work in clearing up the situation for these student-athletes. I appreciate their hard work and I am pleased that the young men will be back for the upcoming game.” Mal sent the above statement out tonight. Can't even spell. Mal, compliment, son. Of course, you have bigger problems.
Usually the misspelling of complement as compliment is the much more common occurrence. Rarely see someone misspell it the other way.
