There's a difference?

This sports dud for WHO/TV 13 was giving the story about a couple of Hawkeye football players being arrested.

He ended the story with the fact the two were released on their own
rec·og·nize-ance instead of re·cog·ni·zance.

I hope he'll keep us abreast of further developments and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Later, watching NFL pre-season football, I heard Chris Berman screw up OFFENSE when speaking about Michael Vick.

He pronounced it as a football term, rather than a criminal transgression.
